ALABAMA: 61-year-old Renea Gamble will soon face trial for dressing up as a âdick-tator.â You may remember that Renea (âFairhopeâs Penis Ladyâ) was arrested at a No Kings protest in October over her costume. If youâre near Fairhope, organizers are asking you to support Renea next month.

Climate Meditation & Writing Workshop
In May, 2025, the first session of Climate Meditation & Writing Workshop was held at Studio Kroner in downtown Cincinnati. It was part of All Else Pales 2, a month-long, multi-disciplinary exhibition exploring climate change, sustainability, and environmental justice. From the seed of this opportunity, an ongoing group has emerged! I facilitate our monthly meetings, which (generally) occur on the 2nd or 3rd Saturday of the month.

Dug this up for anyone who needs it. If you get the chance, please read about Frank Marble from Caltech, and take inspiration from him. This is a man who openly defied the FBI during McCarthyism, even knowing it could kill his scientific career.

Never has a President wagged a dog harder than Trump and MAGA now. To distract from Epstein, the explosion of health and homeowners insurance costs, and the tariffs that are decimating small businesses, Trump is plunging this country into a war and using our soldiers as pawns.

I'm boosting myself to say this: You're going to see people On Here tell you calling electeds doesn't matter. That's not true. Some are bots. Some are people who like being contrary to be edgy. But calling moves the needle, especially against a blatantly illegal act by Trump and Co. ACT.

Who's responsible for the climate crisis? Two new studies try to answer this question: but whichever way we slice it, the answer doesn't change much. The wealthiest are disproportionately responsible for the greatest emissions, and that's why climate change is so unfair. An explanatory thread đ§”

The world as presently constituted is a factory for trauma, created by generations of sociopaths for their own benefit with no regard for the 99%. That so many of you survive and resist and demand peace and healing is a miracle of human spirit.

Given the literal definition of deportation is removing a foreigner or noncitizen from the country, we - journalists, media orgs - should probably all stop referring to the âdeportationâ of a 2 year old US citizen. Itâs NOT a deportation. Iâm not sure what it is. A kidnapping?

The majority of people â56% in the US!âare worried about climate change, but not activated. Why not? Most feel helpless, hopeless, and don't know what to do. So more fear won't activate them. Rather, knowing what to doâand being invited to do itâwill. Where to start? With a conversation today. đ§”
