seems like we're on the way to 2.0C shortly after 2030.. relatedly, no passivhaus mandates and there are more cars in seattle today than any point in its history

the trump administration is running concentration camps so you gotta remember to donate $5 to the democratic party, maybe attend a march, and don’t even think about doing anything that might stop it

TONIGHT: Coinciding with the winter solstice at 4:21PM, volunteers with SHARE/WHEEL will hold a vigil for the 245 homeless people who died in the Seattle area this year. Since 2022, the group has honored more than 1,100 people who passed away while unhoused or in public due to violence.

republicans and especially erika kirk really don’t seem to mind that charlie got killed

Absolutely right. AI might be able to summarize (poorly) what we currently know, but a major goal of historical research is to find the hidden surprises out there. Let me illustrate …

We cannot survive another neoliberal president. We CANNOT *TOLERATE* Another neoliberal president. This is unlivable and inexcusable. If you think for one second voting blue no matter who will save us, you are LYING to yourself. THIS is what they do and we MUST fight to change them.

oh i get it. the law is currently in the hands of a pedophile fascist. oh well its not like anyone can just take the law into their own hands instead.

i hope today has brought many more a fencesitter into the doohickey is a must camp welcome aboard

let’s just assume anyone worth over $100 million hung out with epstein and banish them from society

truthout.org/articles/off... I'm begging people to please stop focussing solely on the midterms. I get it, some people think they're the answer, and maybe (maybe) they will help (lol) but make your backup plans of action now while you have the the time to prepare and practice.

Anyone want to try and apply some of those consequences?

If they all voted and voted no it wouldn't have passed.

those who predicted authoritarianism were both dismissed, & deeply misunderstood, by the media my latest for @newrepublic.com newrepublic.com/article/2042...

EXCLUSIVE: the Working Families Party is putting out a recruitment call for people opposed to data centers in their communities to run for local office the recruitment effort comes just 2 days after Bernie Sanders called for a moratorium on data center construction

Democrats always seem to find a mathematically exact number of votes to do the wrong thing. Strange how that works. Just enough to say "oh, well, it wasn't me, I was an ally! But those were swing districts, what can you do?" And somehow the number of swing districts changes vote to vote.

cis people on the skyline are genuinely more distressed by karoline leavitt’s lip fillers than the fact that congress just said, “what we should do is put any doctor or pharmacist in prison who gives lifesaving medical care to this specific kind of child we find gross.”

A large study of COVID19 vaccination and SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy showed that vaccination was significantly associated with reduced: -Preterm births -Hospitalizations -Admissions to critical care unit Yet RFK Jr., Makary, Prasad and Hoeg continue to spread disinformation about it.

The machine knows its Carl Schmitt, who's friend/enemy distinction is essentially Wilhoit's Law

Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

US Sen. Bernie Sanders urged an investigation Friday into what he described as a “war against journalists,” citing rising casualties for reporters covering the conflict in the Gaza Strip and the surrounding region. Read: www.middleeastmonitor.com/20251213-us-...

All the Dems that refused to impeach the Traitor should all be removed at their next election. If they are supporting the Traitor, we don't need them in our government. No matter their past deeds.

The American people are sick of two Americas where rich folks get off on crimes and get tax cuts while the rest of us suffer. When the powerful and wealthy aren't held to account for heinous crimes like those in the Epstein files, it's the everyday people who hurt the most.

I'm seeing a lot of "Luigi Mangione might be innocent" takes and I just want to remind you that legally, he IS innocent. Literally every person charged with a crime is legally innocent until and unless a judge or jury finds them guilty. It's not that they MIGHT be innocent. They simply are.

If dietary supplement labels include health claims, they are required to add the following: “This statement has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.” RFK Jr.’s regime wants the statement removed.

People tell me that the Dems are controlled opposition but I'm forced to disagree because someone pretending to be an opposition party would occasionally try to make it believable.

Just a reminder that ICE didn't exist until 2002. It's not some longstanding institution that must be maintained. It was created as a knee-jerk reaction to 9/11, and it could be gotten rid of as easily as it was created.

shoutout to the crowd that insisted it was a political loser to stand up for abrego garcia’s rights

#ProudBlue #Voices4Victory Thank you, Allegheny County! Munhall, Springdale & Stowe, three Allegheny County police departments have done the right thing & canceled their ICE partnerships. www.publicsource.org/munhall-stow...

Curb stomp your local ICE agent.

shame every politician publicly and loudly. film them in public. don't matter what side they're on. they serve YOU and they aren't. they are quite literally killing us. least we can do is make them have to deal with our corpses.

that’s right, @whstancil.bsky.social is oomf now

🚨SCOOP: Google gave lawmakers gifts up to $2,000 to attend a secret perk-filled summit touting AI & data centers as lawmakers consider AI dereg & data center subsidies, according to documents reviewed by @levernews.com. Lawmakers got hotel rooms costing up to $500 per night & a Wrigley Field party.

We really need to just start pelting people with rotten fruit like in the good old days. If nothing else the ensuing freakout and domestic terrorism charges will make them look like a laughingstock
