I'm so worried about the Canadian shooting news story. I can just hear the transphobes sharpening their knives.

The President is a convicted felon and should look in the mirror when he talks about pedophiles he's taken down.... liar, otherwise you would release all the Epstein file. You are protecting your pedophile friends, and the World knows it.

Trent: Immigrants are far less likely than native-born citizens to commit crimes. That is not who we need to protect ourselves from. It actually turns out that we need to protect ourselves from the rich, the powerful, the oligarchs — the Epsteins of the world, the Trumps of the world.

Not to mention defunding USAID and all the international programs

Would be a valuable study I think it needs to go beyond just the direct quackery of Trump/RFK/Oz/Bhattacharya/Makary/Høeg/Prasad/Kulldorff I think it needs to include deaths they caused by pushing people off health insurance, defunding food stamps, & worsening air pollution & the climate crisis

Some doctoral student needs to do a major study calculating how many Americans are being killed by the health quackery of Trump, RFK Jr., Dr. Oz and their co-conspirators.

We are going to need to make every cubby hole and crawl space we can to hide our neighbors from today’s slave patrol (ICE).

Mere words are not the end goal. But denouncing the genocide enables further steps, like not providing Israel with arms, or F-35s, or military intelligence. Not inviting Netanyahu or his cronies to visit the country, legitimising them on the world stage. Putting sanctions in place.

As a San Franciscan, I first encountered Newsom as my district supervisor, and then as mayor. And yes, he was always good at jumping in front of a bandwagon, promising what he never delivered. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The ancient Egyptians never cease to amaze.

Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency. She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

English-only California: the golden state with Spanish place names removed. First map I ever commissioned, to commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, whereby the US made Mexico give up its northern half, adding California and the Southwest to the Union.

I’m sorry, but nobody should be operating a car at 92. Reaction times are slower no matter what your health status, seeing and hearing are not what they once were.

Not only does California's 22GW of solar have reliability similar to US coal, but CA also has 15.8GW/63.2GWh of batteries, which can store 63.2GWh/d of PV and then discharge 3.95GW of flat output for 16h So PV+batteries can provide ~2x the baseload output of nuclear in CA (2.2GW) for 24 h in a day

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

This book has the most scathing dedication by an illustrator I have ever seen (and he is completely right) #kidlit

Bad President has problem with Bad Bunny by @deAdder Substack: open.substack.com/pub/deadder/...

“The Obamas are competent, classy, loving, Harvard and Princeton graduates, loved by many, not in the Epstein files, got the Nobel Peace Prize, and gave us a steady economy to boot…”

“Ruled by the Epstein Class” feels like a real solid message, to me.

Caltrain is just a great service. Lots of problems to solve, yes, needs more expresses, 100%. But the fact I can take my bike, with a full 50 lbs load, anywhere between San Francisco and San Jose is amazing. Quiet, smooth, has bathrooms. We can't let this die.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

"High-emitting sectors warrant more attention and creativity." Love this. Imagine what we could do if all the smart, caring people were unleashed on improving our buildings while reducing cement use or changing transportation to be safer and more equitable while reducing fossil fuel use.

Elon Musk will have to appear on April 20. For those of you, unlike Elon, who don't celebrate it, that's Hitler's birthday. Never say the French don't have a sense of humor. www.nbcnews.com/world/europe...

The Epstein files prove that #Pizzagate was absolutely right, only they got *all* of the places and people wrong.

“Imagine if we had to follow the law”

The biggest Canadian song of the moment being “Yukon” and the fact that it is referring to the vehicle, not the territory, means something, I just don’t know what

As if on cue National lab projects enhanced geothermal cost could decline to $100/MWh by 2035 pv-magazine-usa.com/2026/02/02/n...

That may be the first accurate thing Kristi Noem has ever said, because not a day has gone by without my hearing about her and the lawless departments she oversees.

More great signs from today’s protest in #SanFrancisco. A sweet Dr Seuss-esque one & a hard core one evoking Nuremberg

Irresponsible, too

Shut down until this ends.

The F word

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people. But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

Hey #Blondi! Hey #CASH! How's that release of the Epstein Files coming? Asking for a few thousand victims.

The power of collective singing. Listen to the end.

Is this for real? At the same time as telling young people they spend too much time on social media? Personally I think we need a new youth club and discos budget on top of sports funding. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

I haven’t forgotten about the Epstein Files. I never will forget about the Epstein Files. Every single survivor deserves justice. Leak the Epstein Files.

Carbon capture does not reduce emissions - three case studies to prove it. Instead, carbon capture causes more harm than good, and only serves to prolong fossil-fuel industries Edited excerpts from "Still No Miracles Needed" www.landclimate.org/ccs-no-mirac... @landclimate.bsky.social

UN Secretary-General Guterres warns the “law of the jungle” is replacing international rules, urging world leaders to recommit to the rule of law as the foundation of peace, justice and global security.
