The climate is in crisis. We've gotta try big, ambitious new ideas. But ffs, do it with integrity and humility. And always, always, independent third party verification.

A very encouraging climate read

This is an American patriot.

The theory that contemporary misogyny is a lingering long tail result of systemic controls put in place to ensure women stayed focused on making enough kids - and only that - makes a lot more sense after taking this in. Really stunning chart.

the reason silicon valley is so much more excited about AI than the rest of us is because it makes life easier for them to make money from all of us. For 20 years, the valley pumped out hardware ( phones ) and tech ( apps ) normies can get utility from. AI is mostly about optimizing that plumbing.

VERY much regretting that this era of identity politics will now require me to travel in pajamas with a pillow from home under my arm and slippers on my feet, but that's apparently what the moment demands.

Game respects game.

spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

Zohran is living the dream- getting to meet every single person in New York City one at a time. Doesn’t look remotely like campaigning. More like the world’s most eager next door neighbor to the folks who just moved in.

I think the people of Maine are smart enough to figure out the character of the candidates in front of them over the next year. Sure seems like Platner is like most of us- well intentioned, under informed, and willing to listen and learn. So let’s just let it play out and they can decide.

"we cannot collectively act until we are a collective - the protests help establish that collective."

“The 3.5% rule is a concept in political science that states that when 3.5% of the population of a country protest nonviolently against a government, that government is likely to fall from power.” If you can get to a No Kings rally this Saturday, please do.

For the love of America, NoKings.org.

He did it again for the 5 year anniversary

Can’t help but have this feeling, cliched as it is:

Thugs

The regime is cracking. Keep pushing back.

This gettaway is AMAZING. Over and over, he makes exactly the right move. The lean out past the first guy. Left to create space. Cuts in hard right to the curb behind the bike. Foot isn't even centered on the pedal. Then left around the pedestrian, back right to create a gap.

Thanks to all of you, we just knocked something in the neighborhood of ~$400M in annual revenue off the Disney balance sheet. Eat it, Eiger.

Another reminder, were one needed, that nature already built a uniformly distributed, highly locally optimized form of carbon harvesting called plants. We just need to get in the way of that natural cycle of carbon release. Aka: biochar.

The breakwater was...Jimmy Kimmel? OK, I'll take it. The message is clear: bullies back off when you don't bend the knee.

I don't even like #jimmykimmel that much, but #ABC and #disney are cowards that no longer deserve my money.

Refuse to be silenced. Don’t comply in advance.

Reflecting on Charlie Kirk, and the rise of extremism in America, and remembering how eerily prescient Rachel Maddow's Ultra podcast presages this moment we are in. Well worth your time. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/r...

Long, long overdue protection for our brave wild land firefighters. Insane that there has to be a rule change to *allow* them to wear masks, much less mandate their use. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/09/u...

If the democrats don’t start fucking fighting like everything is on the line, then we will lose everything. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/o...

Fuzzy knows what's what in South Lake.

I'd like to report a murder...

This is great. 10/10 no notes.

Don't poke the bear.

Beating Cuomo like a gong and I am here for it.

This is so outrageously evil, petty, and wrong.

This is amazing- solar + batteries for $.04/kWh. Unreal how cheap this has become. And two years from first shovel to online.

Amnesty International, as the world’s leading independent human rights group, is deeply careful (and often criticised as being slow) when it comes to its research findings. It has now found with painful clarity that Israel is: 1) An apartheid state; and 2) Committing genocide against Palestinians.

NPR was just killed in part because democrats keep electing old sick people who die and leave their seats vacant.

Guys like Cuomo need be told a couple of times: no means no. You lost, now get lost.

Worth a watch: Head of Signal, Meredith Whittaker, on so-called "agentic AI" and the difference between how it's described in the marketing and what access and control it would actually require to work as advertised.

MUCH more of this please

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

Ok, DC, you know what to do.

This is a United States Senator.

it is weird coming to realize we are right now transitioning to the phase where everything will always be driven by AI. this, today, right now, is the last of the before times...

Yikes. Would like to see independent validation, but this is certainly not a good look for a market leader.

For when Orlando in summer isn’t hot enough for your family vacation…

Has there ever been a level of brand destruction like this, @profgalloway.com ?
