This is *terrible* policy -- terrible economically, terrible ecologically, terrible politically.

Hey Austin, we gotta pump up those numbers. I propose daily patrols past Homeslice on Duval. We can win by a million.

Ugh. Maybe this is just one to stay quiet on. Population bomb was a “scientific” basis for so many racist theories and policies.

From @grist.org, in partnership with the Observer: Older residents in the small town of Ozona are thriving. Here's the unique way that wind energy is keeping retirees close to home, and giving them a better quality of life.

This thing didn’t kill me the first time. Maybe it’s worth another try.

This is why I don’t leave my bike outside during Texas summers.

I wish pbs would have the respect to use the correct official honorifics: It's John "Torture Memo" Yoo, you philistines.

On the other hand, John Yoo, a professor at the University of California at Berkeley and former Justice Department official during the George W. Bush administration, says you can eat shit no problem. "Rub it in your eyes, even," he said. "It's fine." Yoo, who is in hospice, insists shit is sterile.

God forbid anyone ever have their ideas challenged. This is absolutely antithetical to university education.

The scientific understanding of human-driven climate change is much stronger today than it was in 2009 when the EPA first issued the endangerment finding. There is no scientific basis for the Trump administration's decision to repeal it

ICE kidnapped a 5-year-old and sent him alone to a facility in Texas. Hell isn't hot enough.

Post a car picture you took.

/6 ICE is a monument to totalitarianism, lawlessness, and bigotry. It should be ripped out and woodchippered root and branch and replaced with something focused on the concept that you can’t defend the rule of law by burning it down.

Sick dogs will heal faster in homes & unaffected will be safer. Please help if you can!

As far as I know, yes. But how could you possibly trust this administration to follow the law? So one side of any permitting deal is extremely reliant on future hopes, while the other side of said deal gets immediate support to put every shovel in the ground they can, right now
