One might imagine the hostile environment of space as bad news for any organic molecules. However, Japanese engineers just created a wooden satellite called LignoSat, with preparations for a summertime 2025 launch. The mission is meant as a demonstration of the capacities of this humble material to live long and prosper in the vacuum of […] The post World’s First Wooden Satellite Aims to Tackle Space Debris Problem with Sustainable Solution appeared first on Good News Network.

A shelter dog from the Humane Society of Broward County who went viral for sadly looking at puppies get adopted finally finds her forever home. On October 19, the animal shelter posted the heart wrenching moment Sade, a two-year-old Staffy, looks at two puppies getting picked up in the kennel next to her with a sad and longing look in her eyes. The video had closed captions that further broke hearts and read, “Watching all the puppies get adopted… While you spend another night in the shelter… dreaming of a home.” The video, which has garnered over 260,000 reaction on Facebook, has gone viral and has broken the hearts of many. After Sade’s video went viral, the Humane Society of Broward County happily shared on October 22 that the sweet girl finally got her well-deserved happily ever after. “This sweet girl, who won over the hearts of so many online, has found her forever home,” the animal shelter excitedly shared. The animal shelter shared that Sade’s journey to a loving, forever home started with their “Reading Buddies” program, where children aged 6 to 16 can sit outside the cages of shelter animals, read to them, and feed them some treats. During this program, Sade had two kids read to her, and that’s when she met her newest best friends and forever family rolled into one. Along with this was the thousands of views, likes, and comments that everyone has given Sade for her videos. The animal shelter shared that the sweet girl was able to settle in almost immediately in her new home. “She can finally rest, knowing she’s home,” the Humane Society of Broward County wrote. Earlier in October, the animal shelter featured Sade and shared her story in a Facebook reel. They wrote, “This dear girl was found as a stray and was just skin and bones at the time.” The people who found her wanted to keep her, but couldn’t. “They knew they traveled too much to have a dog, so they brought her to us,” the Humane Society of Broward County shares. The animal shelter described the two-year-old Sade as a “sweetheart”. They revealed, “She loves walks, people, attention, cuddles and being right with you.“ “Sade is good with kids and good with cats, but unknown with dogs. Please take it slow with Sade, as she is scared of raised voices.” Sadly, the heartbreaking moment that Sade experienced is the reality for thousands of adult, shelter dogs getting overlooked for puppies. And while Sade got her forever home, the Humane Society of Broward County still has many wonderful pets waiting for their happily ever after. If you are looking to adopt, you may check out the animal shelter’s adoptable pets here. However, if adoption is not possible, you can still help pets get adopted by donating or simply sharing their stories on Facebook.

Watching our Marxist overlords and their developmentally arrested followers lose their collective crap over the past week has been the cherry on top of a delicious pastry. Especially after the hell the left has put everyday Americans through for over nine years. You’d think they would use all the time they’ve spent broadcasting their emotional diarrhea over the re-election of Donald Trump to do some self reflection. But that’s a foreign concept to them! In this episode of “Woke of the Weak,” I poke fun at the droopy faces of our smug politicians, their nepo-babies, media pundits, professors, pop stars and 20-something year-olds who are kicking off Part II of the Trump Era with a new set of temper tantrums. 

President-elect Donald Trump may have overcome Google’s election interference, but the search giant continues to rig presidential race search results.  The Media Research Center found that Google provided a desert of left and legacy media sources for conservatives to wander through in search of right-of-center presidential race coverage on Nov. 12—exactly one week after the election. MRC researchers once again utilized the media list provided by AllSides, which classifies publications based on their “right” to “left” bias, and searched for the terms “donald trump presidential race 2024” and “kamala harris” presidential race 2024.” The first U.S.-based right-of-center result for the Trump prompt did not appear until the sixth search result on page 11, a New York Post article. This means that users had to pass over around a hundred search results before The Post.  Google did not display a single article from a U.S.-based right-of-center outlet in the 24 pages of search results for the Harris prompt. The first right-of-center result appeared on page six in the form of a Fox News video.  Google’s decision to manipulate search results is extremely concerning in light of the “monopolist” search giant’s market dominance. Alphabet subsidiaries Google and YouTube account for upwards of 90 percent of daily internet searches, and Americans lean heavily on search engines for news. According to a November 2023 Pew Research survey, more and more Americans prefer using search engines to get their news, with 15 percent of adults preferring this method—up from 13 percent in 2022 and 11 percent in 2011.  Beyond hiding right-of-center articles where few users will go, Google also ensured that precious few such articles appeared in the search results at all. Only four U.S.-based right-leaning search results appeared in the first 20 pages of results for the Trump prompt.  This sort of election interference appeared repeatedly during the last month and a half of campaigning. An MRC Free Speech America study showed that Google required users to wade through a deluge of leftist news articles before getting to Trump’s campaign website. In response to that study, Trump, who will now become the 47th President of the United States, promised to prosecute Google for election interference.  “It has been determined that Google has illegally used a system of only revealing and displaying bad stories about Donald J. Trump, some made up for this purpose while, at the same time, only revealing good stories about Comrade Kamala Harris,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social account on Sept. 27, less than six weeks before winning the 2024 election. “This is an ILLEGAL ACTIVITY, and hopefully the Justice Department will criminally prosecute them for this blatant Interference of Elections. If not, and subject to the Laws of our Country, I will request their prosecution, at the maximum levels, when I win the Election, and become President of the United States!”  Furthermore, Google buried right-leaning media outlets in its search results on Oct. 1, Oct. 9, Oct. 15, Oct. 22, Oct. 30 and election day itself. The Trump prompt for Oct. 9 produced the most egregious results. The Oct. 9 study found that Google buried the first U.S.-based right-of-center result—a Fox News video—for the Trump prompt on page 23. Nowhere on any of the 26 pages of results did a U.S.-based right-of-center news article appear.  Methodology  For this report, MRC Free Speech America analyzed the Nov. 12 Google search results of the innocuous words “donald trump presidential race 2024” and “kamala harris presidential race 2024.” MRC Free Speech America used a private window utilizing the Brave privacy browser to analyze Google search results to limit the influence of prior search history and tracking cookies. MRC Free Speech America also utilized the AllSides media bias chart as a gauge to determine which outlets are “right” and “lean right.” AllSides notes it has a “patent on rating bias and use[s] multiple methodologies,” not a homogenous group or an algorithm. Allsides also notes that “Our methods are: Blind Bias Surveys of Americans, Editorial Reviews by a multipartisan team of panelists who look for common types of media bias, independent reviews, and third-party data.” Readers should be aware that this report only uses the AllSides list to analyze ratings of outlets considered by AllSides to be “right” and “lean right” and does not necessarily reflect MRC’s characterizations of these outlets.

The Brookings Institution, an entity substantially funded by Big Tech and leftist billionaire George Soros, is whining for increased censorship in the wake of the 2024 election. On Nov. 7, Brookings senior fellow Darrell West asserted Republicans won the 2024 election due to insufficient censorship of so-called online disinformation. Disturbingly, Brookings has financial ties to multiple Big Tech platforms that can censor speech online. Brookings’ new commentary complained about President-elect Donald Trump and Republicans’ 2024 landslide victory, which reclaimed the House and Senate. Brookings highlighted “inflation fears, concerns about border security, worries about cultural issues related to race, gender, and sexuality, and feelings that President Joe Biden and the country as a whole were headed in the wrong direction,” but ultimately blamed alleged “disinformation.” Every single example Brookings cited of supposed “disinformation” was exclusively from the Republican side, including Trump’s reaction to reports of Haitian migrants cooking pets. Other examples were allegations of sexual abuse against Democrat vice presidential nominee Tim Walz and an AI-generated image of Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Brookings tellingly did not label Democrat propaganda as disinformation. The commentary piece defended outgoing President Joe Biden’s record and that of other Democrat candidates, including Walz. Brookings also did not list the times accurate information was censored in the past with the excuse of suppressing “disinformation.” Infamously, the Hunter Biden laptop story was crushed online, swinging the 2020 election in Joe Biden’s favor. Arguments that the Covid-19 virus originated in a Wuhan lab and reports of out-of-control border crossings/trafficking under Biden both turned out to be credible, but were suppressed. Then-Fox News host Tucker Carlson, gun enthusiast Mike Yardley and Project Veritas were all users censored for one of these two topics, as MRC’s CensorTrackdatabase shows. “The disinformation risks have grown stronger in recent months due to new tech tools such as generative AI,” Brookings warned. “If that continues, it will lead to disaster for our country’s politics and governance.” It demanded that digital platforms and websites “get a serious handle on the flood of disinformation.” Notably, Brookings’ 2023 annual report listed multiple Big Tech companies as donors in various categories by the size of the donation, namely Microsoft ($2 million+), Meta ($250,000+), and Google (both the $500,000+ and $250,000+ categories). Meanwhile, George Soros’s Open Society Foundations (OSF) awarded Brookings 11 grants from 2016 to 2023, totaling over $2.9 million. MRC studies have repeatedly demonstrated Google’s bias, including a Nov. 7 study illustrating egregious left-leaning 2024 election manipulation. Conservatives are under attack.
