I need @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social to call for @schumer.senate.gov to step down as minority leader with the same energy she called for @alfranken.bsky.social to resign. #democrats #shutdown #schumer

Please post as much about the Arctic being opened up for drilling as you do about that building in DC. #arctic #whitehouse #ballroom

White people who have spent decades thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic and “Every Breath You Take” is a great wedding song are suddenly very concerned about not being able to understand lyrics to some songs at the Super Bowl halftime show.

Here it is. The cover of my book. The story of me, my beloved Jon, birds, the planet, love, loss, hanging in there, sobriety, and hiking. Publishing next May.

““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

This is how I've been responding to scam texts. It's been so fun.

I interviewed Elspeth Hay for @terrainorg.bsky.social. We talk about nut trees as a keystone species, the non-existent dividing line between humans and nature, prescribed burns, and how the land needs us as much as we need it (her/ them). Photo courtesy of Elspeth Hay. Link in next comment.

I am bad at predictions but I'm going to make one anyway. I think the Trump admin and Republicans are going to get worse, making even more dramatic authoritarian moves at a feverish pace and this will code to many as increasing strength. But in fact they will be losing popularity and control.

In 2023, we won the Build Public Renewables Act — a groundbreaking law empowering NYS to speed up the clean energy transition and lower your bills with publicly-owned power. Today is the deadline to tell the New York Power Authority that we need a plan for 15 GW by 2030. Take urgent action below.

I knew the punditry would be embarrassing today but my goodness. It's way worse than I expected.

Pronunciation of #Cuomo is so good.

If you'd like to let the folks at the US Open know how you feel about them censoring protests against trump, here's a handy contact form I just used. Highly recommend! www.usopen.org/en_US/info/c...

Say hello to my little friend. If you listen closely, his song goes something like this: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET FOOD AND AID INTO GAZA.

Just found out a tip for getting #AI out of a Google search. Type -ai at the end of the search. Also, apparently on Duck Duck Go you can turn it off in settings. Via @biologicaldiversity.org therevelator.org/how-to-get-a...

"AI slop" would be a great band name

What is time anyway

I love this so much. #mamdani

I don't have a picture of the young black bear I shooed away from the feeder this morning, but here's a rose breasted grosbeak who's grateful that I did.

Just to be crystal clear: bombing Iran is completely illegal.

The Senate GOP plans to sell off 3.3 million acres of public land. Call your Senators! This whole budget is about funneling money to the richest of the rich. I'm so fucking sick of the grift. #publiclands #budget #reconciliation

I'm ready. #nokings

I'm proud I don't have Andrew Cuomo's record of corruption, scandal and disgrace. And the name is M-A-M-D-A-N-I.

We feed you. They hunt us.

The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy but I still like seeing them fight

While seeking the new can be the jam of outdoor enthusiasts...developing a relationship with a place through repeat visits nourishes my spirit in a way that the thrill of adventure & the excitement of bagging a peak doesn’t. @sierraclub.org @carabensonwriter.bsky.social tinyurl.com/26xvpmv8

My piece from the Spring issue of Sierra Magazine is live on the website. I love this piece, the art, and Sierra. Just saying. www.sierraclub.org/sierra/2025-...

I thought about starting a belaborers union, but the bylaws alone...pfew. I'm exhausted before even starting. Which is to say that it would take a lot out of me, this effort to create these articles of organization to describe precisely what I mean by belaboring, or even union, for that matter, and

I'm late to this, but I think expecting social interaction to happen exactly when and where one desires (ie on the plane) isn't exactly, ah, sociable. One can be open to talking with strangers in certain circumstances, and yet not be willing in others. Also, assuming it's easy is ableist.

I switched from Chrome/Google to Duck Duck Go and I feel like a radical.

Piss on carpet ftw

Everyone wants action on climate but thinks no one else does- that's the impact of climate disinfo

I held this post up to the light.
