Many disabled people are unable to drink without straws.
On social media, many people have responded to claims that people with disabilities need plastic straws by asking what people did before plastic straws were invented.

This is good to see, but I don't think it's anything groundbreaking. Anyone who has been paying attention knows that the way to cure poverty is to give people money, the problem is that the rich and powerful don't want to do that, so it doesn't happen.
There are some real disgusting people here. Anyone who thinks that the solution to climate change is to kill a lot of humans should consider going first.
The lawsuit is cool and all, but one of the other articles in my feed is that one billion people are expected to die due to climate change over the next century, and this idiot wants to increase oil and coal production.
When does that ever happen?
How many times does God need to tell us that gender reveal parties have to stop before we listen?
