Tomorrow I'm recording a pod with @shaylekann.bsky.social of the @catalyst-pod.bsky.social pod. The crossover event of the century! The subject: three pressing, important questions facing the clean energy that are likely to be definitively answered in the next 5-10 years. What's your question?

#CleanWater is a basic right of life. And water activism is one of those precious things that unites people across all the other toxic cultural divides. So what are we doing and why and how? accidentalgods.life/water-water-... #AccidentalGods #Podcast w Claire Kirby of Up Sewage Creek

I mean, when you put it like that, it sure sounds bad.

Essential Reading from @jackfrombkln.bsky.social “Without action, Hope acts as an opiate. It will make them feel good, luring them into complacency, while accomplishing nothing. Without Hope” Zeus concluded “disappointment cannot exist.” jackiesummers1.substack.com/p/the-perver...

It doesn't matter how "rich" any given country or individual is, if there's no air to breathe. Nature doesn't care about your GDP, your bank balance, your western-ness....

As the old paradigm splinters into rage-filled, grief-stricken fragments, how can we lay the foundation for the total systemic change we so badly need? accidentalgods.life/healing-our-... #Accidentalgods #Podcast #Elderwisdom #IndigenousWisdom

🔴Bannon, Epstein, Farage and Johnson and the Plot to ‘Topple’ Theresa May Messages between the far-right former Trump adviser Steve Bannon and Jeffrey Epstein, reveal how Bannon worked with Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage to “overthrow” Theresa May at the height of the 2018 Brexit crisis

2/2 If the U.S. steps back, is Europe ready to act? Block Russia’s shadow fleet. Scale defense production. Provide long-range weapons. Not statements. Capacity. - Munich exposed the gap between rhetoric and readiness.

1/2 Munich 2026 was not routine diplomacy. It was a stress test. The old security order is cracking. Trust across the Atlantic is no longer automatic. Shamshur says it plainly: partnership is being redefined on Washington’s terms. www.obozrevatel.com/ukr/novosti-...

In what possible reality is 3C warming survivable? AMOC off Weather wholly unpredictable But worse than all that- total marine due-off And the phytoplankton produce most of our oxygen. Nobody survives a hypoxia atmosphere. This is insane #climatechaos www.theguardian.com/environment/...

As the dad of two Gen Z, this is the most progressive generation since WW2, the kids are awesome.

This isn't over. It may not be over for a long while yet. But I am 100 percent convinced that we are going to win. (7/7)

They had a silent auction for art with ICE OUT and the rebel loon. When I put in my donation to theie link for families from Minneapolis schools the total was at $39k and change for a goal of $40k. (5/?)

I'm at their second benefit show right now. (They just opened their 3rd set with "American Idiot.) These white suburban parents are wearing t-shirts with slogans like "RADICALIZED BY BASIC HUMAN DECENCY" and "NO ONE IS ILLEGAL ON STOLEN LAND BUILT BY STOLEN HANDS." (4/?)

And these kids decided, on their own, to play a benefit show for families impacted by the surge. At that first show they had hoped to raise a couple thousand dollars. Their families and friends came to Minneapolis and packed the house. They ended up raising over 10 grand. (3/?)

These are suburban white kids, with one latinx member. Whose father happens to work at a school in Minneapolis, and was one of the people tackled by ICE when they swarmed his school as it was letting out. They were abducting kids while other kids jumped on the agents to try to stop them. (2/?)

Let me tell you a tale of how completely the normies have been mobilized. My 14 year-old niece has done School of Rock for the past 5 years; last summer she was part of their touring band, and the kids loved playing together so much that they decided to keep doing it. (1/?)

This thread is the we are going to win thread, is the kids are alright thread, is the STOP ICE thread, is the civil society rising thread; read it through.

The angel of abundance, the Dolly Lama of literacy, the distributor of almost a third of a billion books for kids.

If you want to understand why rich guys are turning back to eugenics and recreating the rhetoric and theology of slavery, it’s because they know on some level this level of wealth inequality is unjustifiable bsky.app/profile/marl...

You'll be able to immediately identify the ones freaked out by a young brown woman because they will be the ones saying "I have nothing against young brown women but ..."

Calling it now: the US political media's treatment of AOC is going to make their treatment of Hillary Clinton or Al Gore look like a model of balance and discretion.

How do we shift business from extractive/destructive to *actually* working as if we were all integral to the Web of Life - and our joy, our duty, our meaning and purpose were its flourishing? accidentalgods.life/laws-of-natu... #Accidentalgods #Podcast #NatureontheBoard #LawyersforNature

To cycle back to "why is this Kemi's solution?" a social media ban for under 16s is a way to produce an apolitical solution to a notionally political problem. It is far easier to just declare you've tackled kids radicalising themselves than to engage with what that radicalisation is and who it is.

On Presidents' Day, Donald Trump is busy rewriting history at the Smithsonian by scrubbing his two impeachments and January 6 from display, proving that if he can't control the narrative of his own failures, he'll just demand a new portrait without the ugly parts. 1/2

Love you, Detroit. ⛽️

In the midst of collapse, as we watch our governments lay waste to our social agreements, it can be hard to imagine extending the franchise of legal rights and sovereignties to the More than Human world. And yet we must - so here's how. accidentalgods.life/kindling-qui... #AccidentalGods #Podcast

This council by-election was so close. Labour came fourth though, just a few dozen Labour voters switching to Greens would have been enough to stop Reform.

Leaving the ECHR will not allow you to deport all Asylum Seekers, you can't deport a person without the other country accepting them. But it will allow the State Pension, Minimum Wage, Paid Holiday, Max Working Hours, Maternity Leave and much more to be cancelled.

"...fascism became objectionable to Europeans only when it unleashed in Europe the brutality they had inflicted on the “inferior” peoples of Asia & Africa." Similarly now: Europeans are upset, and paralysed, that Trump is treating him like those 'others' www.equator.org/articles/aft...

We live in an ever-changing world, but how thin is the ice on which we are skating? And how can we change the ways we do things so we don’t fall into the void of extinction. accidentalgods.life/what-ought-w #AccidentalGods #Podcast with that utterly inspiring @david-farrier.bsky.social

Has to happen, right?

Unions & Labour MPs call on Starmer to end 'narrow factional agenda'. Authoritarian Starmer can't change. Left purged, local parties weakened, conference resolutions ignored. Starmer withdrew whip from 7 MPs for opposing the two child benefit cap, now govt policy. Need new leader, policy changes.
