This isn't "just" Shaheds on Poland It's jamming v/d Leyen and German general's planes It's bombing the EU HQ in Kyiv It's bombing Ukr civilians every day and night with 800+ drones and missiles AND THIS IS JUST LAST WEEK.

“Climate change, for impacting the quality of your life, is not incredibly important,” Mr. Wright said. “In fact, if it wasn’t in the news, in the media, you wouldn’t know.” lol I just wrote about how climate change has gotten to the point where everyone can see for themselves that it’s real.

I think that since the overwhelming majority of mass shooters are cisgender men, we should take their guns first.

Mind-blowing stats from Oxfam on the impacts from clothes that are bought and rarely, if ever, worn. www.businessgreen.com/news/4518290...

This firefighter arrived in the US at age 4, has been here for 19 years, was on track to legal status, and was on a crew trying to contain a major blaze (in Washington state, vs Oregon, fwiw.) h/t @joshuajfriedman.com www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The last 3 years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years. CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years. But most people have no idea this is happening, let alone what it means for our kids’ futures. Our politics & media have failed our children. We should be furious.

My favorite evergreen Molly Ivins quote: "I prefer someone who burns the flag and then wraps themselves up in the Constitution over someone who burns the Constitution and then wraps themselves up in the flag."

I know this is not a unique observation but public health was basically created to deal with the Spanish flu, and then a century later COVID hit and killed twice as many people and our response was to destroy public health

Oh snap! So true.

[FOUNDER'S BRIEF - @rhettayersbutler.bsky.social] Mountains of smoking waste sprawl across the Dandora dump in Nairobi, Kenya. Among the refuse are remnants of fast-fashion - fabrics with synthetic fibers which fragment into microplastics laced with toxins which seep into soil, water and air.

Masked raids are tools of fear, not freedom. Despite what this administration wants you to believe, they are not about “safety.” They are about letting ICE agents hide from accountability while carrying out inhumane acts.

Fuck Trump. Fuck these fascists.

Plastic pollution: Global action is desperately needed to deal with this scourge www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"Plastics cause disease and death from infancy to old age and are responsible for health-related economic losses exceeding US$1.5 trillion annually." www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

World in $1.5tn ‘plastics crisis’ hitting health from infancy to old age, report warns. Plastic production has increased more than 200 times since 1950 and hits health at every stage from extraction to disposal, says review in the Lancet. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

As a transportation archaeologist, I've been wanting to read this one for a while now.

The first planned migration of an entire country due to climate change is happening! Tuvalu, a Pacific island nation, is at risk of being submerged under rising sea level, so it has signed an agreement with Australia to allow 280 Tuvaluans to settle in Australia as permanent residents each year.

Turn off the tv, your computer, tablet, whatever. Turn on the wireless, find some nice calming tunes. Get glue, scissors, clear the table and go make a car. You can download the original paper model here: www.flickr.com/photos/taffe...

Absolutely surreal to watch White House reporters ask Leavitt questions about tariffs moments after she and Gabbard used this briefing to baselessly accuse Obama of crimes punishable by death. We’re a sick joke of a country.

MLK Jr’s daughter responds to the partial release of files related to her father:

IMPORTANT: The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart govts do the math on investing in better mobility. Let’s be clear— it wastes public money to NOT do it. #CityMakingMath HT @modacitylife.bsky.social

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Great summary of our recent paper on sea level rise during a past warm period and what it means for our future. Thanks, @climateages.bsky.social , for featuring our work.

Look what I made! Ask me for a postcard next time you see me. #ClimateChange #Heritage #HeritageAtRisk #BannedWords

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

The environment took a beating this week, and so did we: construction in the Everglades, the Supreme Court restricted EPA authority, and even California rolled back some of its landmark environmental protections. #WetTribe #TidetotheOcean

In the aftermath of the fire that destroyed the historically Black Altadena, corporations with murky structures have been quietly buying up the area

More than 80% of UK farmers worried about climate crisis harming livelihood, study finds

It's seems like just yesterday when people called us "alarmists" when we predicted Trump would arrest his legal opponents.

“Assistant Attorney General Brett A. Shumate wrote in the memo that pursuing denaturalization will be among the agency's top five enforcement priorities for the civil division.”

After backlash from Americans across the political spectrum—including major pushback from outdoorsy conservatives—Senator Mike Lee of Utah has dropped his proposal to sell off more than a million acres of public lands. With gratitude to those who called their Senators, this is a major step forward.

A new study found that the United States was responsible for 55 percent of the pollution emitted by private jets globally.

Ahem

Supreme Court Rules 6-3 To Open Evil Tomb Of Batibat

The only solution to plastic pollution is to stop consuming plastic.

This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.

Fuck Trump.

Impeach the motherfucker.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.
