Libra, Weekly Horoscope, December 08 to December 14, 2024: Opportunities for creative expression ariseMy generation has grown up during one of the most complex and unprecedented times in American history. We’ve witnessed war, genocide, historic climate disasters, a raging gun violence epidemic, an insurrection, an economy that doesn’t work for us, and the lowest levels of trust in government — paired with an ever-deepening hyper-partisanship. And the list goes on. We are the mass shooting generation, the generation that will bear the brunt of climate change, and the generation inheriting crises that threaten our future. We grew up with active shooter drills in our schools, watched our planet’s ecosystems change before our eyes, and now face mounting student debt, an unaffordable housing market, and an uncertain economic landscape that feels rigged against us. It’s no secret that there’s a lot being said right now about the recent election. People are pointing fingers, making generalizations, and casting blame, some of it unfairly directed at young people. Pundits are doing what they do best. I suppose we all still need to pay the bills. But what often gets lost in the noise of this political finger-pointing is the relentless work and activism that young people have done — and continue to do — to build a better future. Too often overlooked is our unwavering resilience — our ability to drive change in the face of the harshest challenges and the deepest adversity. Young people have been forged by trauma and conflict, raised in a world that tells us we don’t deserve the rights our grandparents had, that we don’t deserve safety, and that we don’t deserve a seat at the table to determine our own future. We’ve been harassed , targeted , locked out , kicked when we’re down, and blamed when we’re not doing enough. We’re exhausted. And we have every right to be. And yet, despite all this, we’ve found ways to resist, adapt, and advocate for a better world. Election after election, we’ve faced adversity and disappointment, yet we’ve continued to push forward, building our own communities and forging our own political power. Whether organizing the largest march since the Vietnam War, empowering hundreds of thousands to rally with us in cities around the world, walking out of our classrooms and into the streets to demand change, protesting and passing laws in statehouses across the country, or lobbying Congress to pass life-saving and historic legislation, we have fought tirelessly. In this election cycle, we once again gave it our all — traveling across the country to get out the vote, talking to millions of voters, demanding change from our leaders, and ensuring our voices shaped the national conversation. To the students studying while juggling jobs to pay rent and loans, to the Dreamers who only ask for the chance to call this country their home, to the older siblings helping their families, to those trying to start a family or find stable work, and to every young person, everywhere, I say this: Be proud of yourself. Amid all of this, you still found time to make your voice heard and fought for your life and for the future of your peers. You’ve carried the weight of this work while politicians, whose sole responsibility is to fight for us, neglected their jobs and threatened our lives for their own ambitions. I wish I could tell you that the fight is over, that we could put away our clipboards and step away from the frontlines. That we could simply be kids, students, and whatever we want to be, free from the burden of these battles. But we know the reality. We know this isn’t a luxury we can afford. Our lives are still on the line, and it’s our job to march for them — for our future, for our children’s future, and the future of the generations to come. We must fight for the ideals America was founded on, for the promise of the American Dream, and for our place in shaping that dream.

A future where we can go to the movies or school without fear of being shot. Where we can live without the constant threat of climate disaster. Where we can afford a home and invest in our future — and in our children’s future. A future where we can love who we love, start a family, and be who we truly are. A future with leaders who care about our jobs, our pay, our rights, and our lives — not the stock market, lobbyists, big corporations, or their own careers. And a future where our politics are free of vitriol, corruption, and violence, a future defined by decency and compassion, where the only arguments on Thanksgiving are over who gets to sit next to Grandma or who ate the last bit of mashed potatoes. The task ahead is tall, the fight is difficult, but together, we can — and we will — make this future a reality. We will shape our future into what we want it to be. Our resilience is our strength, and our pride lies in our determination to build the future we deserve — a future where safety, economic opportunity, and dignity are rights, not privileges. This is the legacy we’re fighting to create, and it’s one we’ll continue to build, no matter the obstacles in our way. And remember, you’re not alone, organizations like March For Our Lives , Sunrise Movement, United We Dream Action, Gen-Z for Change, and others are here to hear you, fight for you, and march alongside you. Ryan Barto is an activist, a CWA Local 1101 union member, and a former employee at March For Our Lives.

Passengers flying into and out of many of the UK's airports today are facing long delays amid a heavy blanket of fog. Air traffic control restrictions are in place at airports including Gatwick, while flights at Manchester Airport are facing cancelations and delays of up to three hours. Fog can impact visibility and make it harder to see where you are going - whether you are cycling, driving, or flying. Air traffic controllers are equipped with safety practices to deal with weather such as the fog we are experiencing today, but it can result in delays for passengers. Control has to switch to radar and ‘low visibility procedures’ to ensure airport operations can continue safely. When these procedures are in place, aircrafts have to use the Instrument Landing System (ILS) to be automatically guided to the runway. This technology uses a beam to touch down, which must be kept free of interference from any other planes on the runway. This means that distances between planes has to be increased in order to reduce chances of interference. According to the NATS website, who manage most of the UK's air traffic control, typically this means the spacing between aircraft has to increase by up to 50 per cent. Air traffic control use special measures in foggy conditions (Image: Joseph Raynor/ Nottingham Post) Distances are also increased when planes are manoeuvring or taxiing on the tarmac. The need for increased space and the extra resource these measures take mean passengers in the airport can be faced with delays when weather is foggy. A Manchester Airport spokesperson said: “Like most airports across the country, we have experienced some delays as a result of fog. In most instances these delays have been short and have not caused disruption to our schedule. "Passengers due to travel should prepare as normal and aim to arrive at the airport in line with their airline’s advice - this is usually two hours ahead of a short haul flight and three hours ahead of a long haul flight.”
