Studio Ghibli E14 of The Complete Catalog is live! @zepfanman.com and I talk about POM POKO, an eco-fable that simultaneously revels in silly humor and morbid reflections, even while it doesn't provide any easy answers to the destruction facing our natural environments. Links 👇

CAT Global Update 2025 🚨 Ten years after the #ParisAgreement we see little to no measurable progress in warming projections - for the fourth consecutive year. The 2035 #NDCs have made no difference to our warming outlook. 🔗 bit.ly/CAT_Global_2...

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor is right: Trans and gender-expansive youth are not political pawns. Now, more than ever, we must show up for trans kids and their families.

Hot tip: If you’re trying to collect badge numbers, name plates, or license plate numbers, your eyes tend to pick that up better than your phone camera, especially at night. While filming, speak clearly into your phone the info you want documented.

Libraries are vital, providing access to information, technology, and learning. Cutting IMLS funding threatens these services, especially in underserved areas. Library funding isn’t political—it’s an investment in education, opportunity, and civic engagement. #LibraryLove #ForOurLibraries ala.org

@goldensilentscast.bsky.social Hi ho hi ho! I don't see a way to pm you. Wanted to suggest you include a 1-2 second divider noise when you go from analysis to interview. I've noticed a confusing transition a few times and this podcast convention would probably help with the flow.

NEW: Today ALA & our co-plaintiff @afscme.bsky.social filed a preliminary injunction in federal court. This continues our ongoing legal action to save federal library funding. Our goal is to immediately halt the dismantling of the Institute of Museum & Library Services. 1/3

#DiscGolf is returning to the World Games for the first time since 2001! I heard Anniken Steen mention in an interview that she will be representing Norway in August. Currently 16 countries expected to compete, but I don't see a list of the actual players yet. www.theworldgames.org/editions/Che...

I know using alt-text for images isn't yet habit for a lot of refugees from Xitter. I get it. But ESPECIALLY when sharing anything related to political activism, please use it. Disabled people, including blind folks or those w/ low vision, are targets right now. They must be a part of your activism.

I love these #discGolf #dogs on the latest #GoThrow skins match.

This is the narrowest #discGolf mando in the Louisville area. Big uphill, too, but it works great for my lefty hyzer flip.

Listening to R.E.M. synced to Sherlock Jr. was a memorable experience! See if it's playing #inTheater a theater near you. Link to tickets in my review: https://boxd.it/8WzDYP #silentFilm #classicFilm

Won the Lovers at Lapping #discGolf tournament with my lover. Delayed from Valentine's weekend because it was flooded. It was cold this morning, but the sun felt good.
