Your 'moment of doom' for Oct. 11, 2025 ~ Everything is fine. "The invisible gas can be seen in streams of bubbles originating on the seafloor of Antarctica's Ross Sea ... describing the mechanism as 'seemingly widespread' throughout the region... " abcnews.go.com/Internationa...

Your 'moment of doom' for Oct. 13, 2025 ~ The end of coral. "We are rapidly approaching multiple Earth system tipping points that could transform our world, with devastating consequences for people and nature..." www.cnn.com/2025/10/13/c...

Back over 1.5°C again and on the way up. Coral has tipped. AMOC, Amazon, boreal forests, Antarctica, Greenland, permafrost, etc., are tipping. The Climate 8-ball says, "Not to be!"

Fun with double negatives. Basic Algebra: A negative + a negative = a positive. Anti Anti-Fa(scist) = Fascist. Follow me for more tips from Gretel Von Trapp.

For those keeping track (and who isn't?), the planet is now at day 3 at 1.65C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline. While MSM sells outrage 24/7 with Kimmel, Tylenol, Putin, Israel... collapse just doesn't make the cut. Do folks care about the end of everything anymore?

Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:

One of my favorite moments in the history of free speech: Larry Flynt publishing a satirical Campari ad featuring Jerry Falwell Sr. as an incestuous drunk who first had sex with his mother in an outhouse. Falwell sued. In a unanimous decision, the Supreme Court found that satire is protected speech.

Dear Department of Homeland Security: I gave this request almost a full second's worth of consideration, and my answer is an unequivocal no. I would have answered sooner, but I was laughing.

UPDATE: A federal judge has halted efforts to quickly deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda while she considers his latest legal bid to stymie the Trump administration’s efforts to cast him out of the country. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...

Your 'bonus moment of doom' for today ~ F&%king humans. "When you really break it down, it’s like trying to sing while you're starving, they were spending all their time just trying to find food." futurism.com/scientists-a...

COLBERT: You warned everyone…he would prosecute political enemies, cut Medicaid, alienate our allies, give tax cuts to the rich. I know you're not here to say 'I told you so' but would you like to? HARRIS: You're correct. I did predict a lot of that. But what I did not predict was the capitulation.

This may be my favorite Kamala Harris moment even as it breaks my heart. She is being authentic here. No shiny, patina politician mask. Candid like your best friend candid. “The system is broken.” “Isn’t that evident?” Yes, Kamala it is. You & Tim won the 2024 election.

Wow! Shit!

Andrea Gibson.Your spirit soars. Thank you for sharing your beautiful heart.

Now this is interesting…so just before the Supreme Court is set to hear the appeal from Maxwell the DOJ says there’s nothing to see here when it comes to the Epstein files… now The Supreme Court can use that to set her free. Now isn’t that fun information to know..

They say “Choose your Apocalypse partner wisely.” We did. Me & my “Buddha dog.” Soulmates to the end. “Dogs & angels are not very far apart.”

The National Climate Assessment, and all special reports and past assessments, are now offline. Federal climate science is being systematically erased.

Spot on. This is the clearest explanation I’ve seen. It ‘s relatable, and humanizes the issue in a way everyone can understand.

I don’t know these homeowners, but I know we could be friends. 😊 #dogsofBlueSky

This is gorgeous, anger can be absolutely beautiful. #resist #protest #nokings #iamhersheisme

There is no universe in which it is acceptable for a Secretary of DHS to say anything like this. Kristi Noem must resign immediately. Or be impeached.

Kristi Noem must resign

🚨🚨🚨 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did 🚨🚨🚨

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

There are many evergreen social media posts of the Trump II era, but my personal nomination is this from @brendannyhan.bsky.social captures the multidimensional degeneracy of our times:

Greta Thunberg? This is obscene. Gosh, she cares about people & the planet. How exactly is that a threat to anyone? The world has gone mad.

Y’all, while yesterday’s Musk v Trump was fun, it was all theatre. SCOTUS in an “emergency” ruling just green lit DOGE to use EVERYONE’s personal data gleaned from Social Security. This is Fascism.

THE RISE OF END TIMES FASCISM My first major piece of the new Trump era, co-written with @astra.bsky.social. The governing ideology of the far right has become a monstrous, supremacist survivalism. Our task is to build a movement strong enough to stop them. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

"If what you're doing is legitimate and lawful, why do you need to cover your face?”

More than a century after the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921, one of the most horrific episodes of racial violence in U.S. history, the city’s mayor announced a $105 million reparations package on Sunday. It is the first large-scale plan committing funds to address the impact of the atrocity.

Random story time: Chevron once got mad at something I wrote for a local Richmond paper and called my dad (I believe they got his number thinking it was mine through a sketchy databroker thing). www.sfgate.com/news/bayarea...

Ah, well, that’s very bad. Like Stalinist, Lysenkoism bad. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

I didn’t give a wit about new pope coverage, but the first American pope being a man with Black ancestry born in Chicago by way of New Orleans by way of Haiti. Names his self after the pope who condemned slavery? In the Trump era? Oh, baebae, I am HERE for it. www.wwltv.com/article/news...

When asked if the United States should have a military parade to show off its might, President Eisenhower responded: “Absolutely not. We are the pre-eminent power on Earth. For us to try and imitate what the Soviets are doing in Red Square would make us look weak.”

The difference between one of the happiest societies, Norway and America is that in Norway they spend $300 million helping the homeless dude on the sidewalk, while in America they spend $300 million rebuilding Alcatraz. Do you get it yet?

We can throw away $120,000,000 flipping fighter jets into the sea, but can’t afford to give the pilots healthcare when they retire.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did.

BREAKING: Rep. Dan Goldman just asked Republicans a simple, human question—should a child with cancer be allowed to stay in the U.S.? Every single one looked away. This moment is not just shameful—it’s monstrous.

Spain and Portugal are at a standstill The blackouts seem to have been caused by extreme temperature variations Fun fact - extreme temperature variations are caused by climate change

Fast fashion is fueling the climate crisis. In fact, 70% of new clothing is made from fossil fuels.   To kick off DC Climate Week, I joined a panel of farmers, scientists, and innovators to talk about making the transition to more sustainable fibers—and slowing down fast fashion once and for all.

"Is the Pope Catholic?" would cease to be a rhetorical question.

BREAKING: Police just surrounded Rev. William Barber, prominent activist and pastor, as he and others prayed in the U.S. Capitol Rontunda. Police then expelled everyone (including press!) from the Rotunda to (presumably) arrest them. I've covered protests here a lot. Never seen anything like it.

Was the person who came up with “whoopsie daisy” the same person that said “toodle-loo” or were they just soul mates

Justice is love in action. When we stand for equality, we make love tangible and fight for a world where everyone is seen, heard, and valued.💜

Priceless when the rich advise the poor on how to survive an economic crisis, especially when they voted it in.
