Actually, everyone who goes to heaven becomes a saint, so the holiness quotient is through the roof right now.

Our wind. Our land. Our energy. So, why isn't it our wealth? It's time to take #ourpower back.

Happy Easter from Ignacio Ellacuria's essay, "The Crucified People." "Salvation does not come through the mere fact of Crucifixion and death; only a people that lives because it has risen from the Death inflicted on it can save the world."

Here it is folks, the best Easter meme.

I know there are perfectly imperialist reasons for the Iran war, but it feels like this guy is mostly in it for the posts.

A good word for Easter www.reuters.com/world/easter...

A huge betrayal. Won't lower bills. Won't give us more energy security. Won't insulate from price shocks. And sends a clear message to the world that we are backing new oil and gas drilling. www.lbc.co.uk/article/ed-m...

Trump can say glory to god all he wants, but god isn't listening.

Happy Holy Abolitionist Day to all who celebrate.

Creature report from the Highlands wildlife park. I saw a Scottish wildcat and I love them. It's wild that they breed them here for release!

I'm religious and spiritual, just the weird kind.

Good Friday story time: I have a pal who is a Methodist pastor. A while back, he was approached by a company who wanted to put a cell tower up on church property. They got approval, the cell tower went up, but without any input from the church, the company made the tower look like a giant cross

This shit sucks

Say what you will about the NHS in Scotland, but we're on holiday in the Highlands and forgot our son's medicine. The pharmacy up here got us his prescription in an hour for free!

As a general rule policy wonk does seem to just mean I don't really want to think about the working class right now

I am sick of reading books about climate justice full of grab bag policies that completely ignore workers. Got to stop being policy wonks and start being unionise every industry and make the capitalists pay for a just transition wonks

BREAKING ⚡: We’re calling on the next Scottish government to ensure Scotland’s energy wealth benefits EVERYONE - not just private companies, overseas investors and shareholders.

This is it, folks. We've got all of the tech we need for a just transition. But what we don't have is a system that supports workers, communities and the environment.

Time and again over the last decade we have defeated this greedy company and their daft mega-resort plans. They just can't take no for an answer though. The Scottish Government must vigorously defend their decision in court. It's time to finally end this saga. #SaveLochLomond

Today fast food workers are marching alongside @ufw.bsky.social, electricians, airport workers, janitors, rideshare drivers, healthcare workers, service workers and more. It takes 17 minutes to walk the length of the march. Immigrants' hands make America, not billionaires. #ConEstasManos

"(Jesus) does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: 'Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood"

Pope Leo says God rejects prayers of leaders who wage wars reut.rs/4rZIThC

Scotland is far from perfect, but I always think it's a good sign of social trust that people in this country are comfortable driving down a two-way single-lane road knowing that it's unlikely someone will murder them with their car.

"We need wind turbines, but we need to be xenophobic about it" is my least favourite take of 2026.

There is no decarbonised future without a real just transition for oil and gas workers. Tell your friends.

Still thinking abotu this. Sharon Graham's position here is not good, but also I think it's up to the climate movement to centre North Sea oil and gas workers and advocate for a real just transition for them. So far, it's mostly just been people on the right doing that.

Five of the largest North Sea oil and gas companies have had a £73 billion boost to their share value since Israel and the US started their war with Iran. Oil and Gas companies are war profiteers! www.thenational.scot/news/2597393...

The @londonjesuit.bsky.social is running a course on trans theology in June!

From a Maronite priest in Lebanon: "In the south, we are the only ones left in these few Christian villages. As long as we are here, this land will remain Lebanese land. We are resisting with our living flesh. We have nothing, we are helpless, our weapon is prayer." www.fides.org/en/news/7750...

For some reason "AI is just like watching Netflix" is back in my feeds so I took that as a sign to update my data tracking for Netflix. The company's energy use rose 1% from 2021 to 2024. Compare that to: Google: 71% Nvidia: 88% Meta: 96% Microsoft: 119%

A comparison of nuclear power versus solar and wind power illustrates just how massive this growth is. Every two days, the amount of solar and wind capacity added is equivalent to the amount of electricity a single nuclear power plant can generate.

Only a couple days old but already has the zoomies 🥰 🐣 🪶

This is one (among many) reasons why overshoot is extremely stupid. Because the oceans absorb far more warming than land, transgressing 1.5 will have larger lasting effects even if we were to bring the climate to 1.5. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

omg

New from the @ippr.org. The UK right have spent a gazillion dollars trying to convince the public that climate policy isn't important, but it's a failed campaign! People consistently care that the planet we all live on is being destroyed and want to change that.

It is being reported on the ground in Cuba that everyone on a ventilator at this hospital died overnight. As a Cuban, I'm devastated.
