Pretty annoying how The Dig, was like "our aim isn't to just criticize the world but to change it" then focuses on campaigns, elections and candidates.

Getting closer

Literal "precession of simulacra." We only do simulated politics now, everyone just sleepwalks through the motions.

In the gym on the first nice day with all the freaks and geeks

Liberal democrats love a sustainability brand, an alt energy conference, an earth fest, but how many bikes do you see in the whole food parking lot?

Proudly capitalist... Bro, do you even own any capital?

interesting reading intra-climate-world messaging-squabble essays while fossil fascism consolidates.

There is no combination of magic words that will convince large segments of capital to be ok with decarbonizing the U.S. economy!

One thing that has not been considered over the past week of Discourse, is that Dems, in general, might not WANT to fix climate, which would mean that the groups saying that Dems shouldn’t talk about climate are actually providing them with cover rather than genuine counsel. 1/2

In case you haven’t heard we are all boycotting REI until they respect the union. Please spread the word.

Latest @bloodwork.show is a banger and that's the way it is

The experience of working in or around US politics for at least the last 20 years has been like fiddling with an unplugged controller

Maybe everything is fine. Maybe it's fine. Maybe. Fine.

Everyday is filled with fresh reminders of the same problem.

everything in american politics boils down to this

Listen to @bloodwork.show

Folks, he's running

Every day is Earth Day if you give a shit.

"We lost and we'll do it again!" - Dems '26 & '28 &

Like... I'm sorry, but to win future elections, you need a good chunk of the people who sat out in 2016 or 2024 to vote for you, and I just don't think that sneering at them and saying it's their fault that things are the way they are right now is going to win them over, even if you truly believe it
