Important message from a Santa Clara County nurse about the harms the "Big Beautiful Bill" is having on health care and what we can do about it - Yes on Prop 50 & Measure A. Thanks to @scienceandsanity.bsky.social for organizing, & to @raginggrannies.bsky.social & @hospiceforhumanity.bsky.social 😍

Sociopaths are so good at manipulation and insinuating themselves into power😔The Iroquois understood this – when we copied their federalist system we inherited checks & balances. Sadly, we didn't copy their matriarchy. It seems women are much less susceptible to sociopathy than men. So here we are.

Nature's Truth I like the way the crickets count me in and provide a background chorus🦗

Let's be absolutely clear what's up for grabs We can no longer dodge climate catastrophe A Pliocene climate (3C hotter, sea levels 20m higher) is now certain We are now fighting to stop a return to the Middle Miocene: 7-8C hotter than PI, sea levels up to 50m higher

Three simultaneous waterspouts appear in #Giresun, Turkey. The surprising phenomenon left local residents stunned.

'Eight of Sweden's 277 glaciers melted completely during 2024 and are now extinct due to global warming... Another 30 glaciers are at risk, glaciology professor Nina Kirchner said. The extinct glaciers "won't come back in our lifetime and not if global warming continues", she said.'

'More than 10,000 people were evacuated to schools & emergency shelters in the northern Philippines today as Super Typhoon Ragasa (locally called Nando) lashed the region with windspeeds approaching 270kmph. That makes Ragasa the most powerful strongest storm anywhere in the world so far this yr'

At Tesla Engineering HQ in Palo Alto, you know there are a ton of H-1B visas that MAGA does not want because it's all about Americans first for them #NaziMusk not only put a chainsaw to the Constitution, but to his own staff. Sad #MigraMusk #BoycottTesla #Prop50 actionnetwork.org/events/prote...

NOAA is now listing all sea-surface temperature data since September 7th as "preliminary" -- I guess they noticed the waggle.

"There seems to be virtually no old sea ice left anymore. What we’re left with is a very thinly spread covering of young ice ebbing and flowing with the seasons and not really surviving from one year to the next." youtu.be/HjjOzOM_Zl8?...

Your 'bonus moment of doom' for today: It's the Antarctic, stupid! "Once viewed as relatively stable, Antarctic sea ice is now experiencing unprecedented declines... The implications of these changes are vast, affecting both local and global ecosystems." www.sustainability-times.com/climate/ten-...

Your 'moment of doom' for Sept. 22, 2025 ~ Worst of all possible worlds. "The report warns that planned fossil fuel production in 2030 will exceed levels consistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C by more than 120% and to 2°C by 77%." www.downtoearth.org.in/energy/produ...

Your 'doom quote' for today: "Approaching a climate tipping point is a bit like walking toward the edge of a cliff in a dense fog." www.goodreads.com/book/show/59...

"We wanted you to see what we saw, over many months of covering DOGE, ICE, and the rest of it. Tech leaders got what they wanted—a seat at the table with a would-be king," Global Editorial Director @katie-drummond.bsky.social writes. "But remember: It’s your future that they just might gamble away."

Big Tech's embrace of President Trump has left many of us wondering: What the hell happened to Silicon Valley? In our new politics issue, we're getting into it. Also, we're taking this cover across the US in billboards, posters and a mural. Clues to find us in the 🧵: www.wired.com/politics-iss...

This is part of the latest Wired politics issue! Unlike too much of the mainstream press, Wired has been taking journalism seriously. This cover is an editorial.

Stephen Levy chronicles what happened to Silicon Valley.

SCOOP: An MIT professor canceled an Israeli military funded research grant after pressure from students. “This concession shows that student campaigns do have an influence,” one student said. "These ties cannot survive transparency." theintercept.com/2025/09/22/m...

Disney has lost nearly $4 Billion in three days from combined stock price collapse and cancelled subscriptions.

#USA #California #climate #destruction #anomaly #climatechange 🇺🇸 Mudslide in #SanBernardino, California, On September 18, a powerful mudslide struck San Bernardino County, California, USA. Torrents of mud and rocks surged down mountain slopes, blocking roads and threatening residential areas.

Long overdue!

This is what rapidly accelerating warming looks like. Another off the chart datapoint: NOAA Sea Surface Temperature data for the summer 2025. We will discuss this and more on Climate Chat today. See link for time and hit the 🔔 to get a notification when we go live 1/2 youtube.com/live/BNZ_biC...

Fortunately, THIS accident wasn’t fatal and since the Tesla did not yield at all, according to CHP, we can only wonder what the investigation will say. Is the Adv Driver Ass Systems faulty and/or was the driver incredibly distracted? @teslatakedown.com www.ktvu.com/news/crash-h...

Breaking News! Code Meh! It appears the Arctic hit its sea-ice extent minimum for the year on September 8th at 4.55 million km². In particular, 2025 came in at 14th lowest on record since 1979. There hasn't been any noticeable downward trend since 2007.

Breaking News! Code Yikes! As of Sept. 19, the global temperature anomaly is once again 1.65°C over the pre-industrial baseline. The last time the planet was this overheated was late March. The Climate 8-ball is going for a long walk with the Doom 9-ball to try and reconcile.

Think if we just started planting magic beans how much carbon we could quickly sequester. Side benefits include taking down oligarchs and stealing their wealth. youtu.be/XuBmOJ9fpns?...

Your 'doom quote' for today: "... greenhouse gases aren't like dust, or ash, or diesel exhaust. They don't go away or settle out after a few days or months; it's not like banning cars in Beijing for a couple of weeks and then hosting the olympics." www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/554938...
