Just wild how much $$$ is sloshing around, back and forth, in the tech world.

Fact check: true.

“You wouldn’t always know it, but it went up every year I was president,” he said to applause. “That whole, suddenly America’s like the biggest oil producer and the biggest gas that was me, people.” - Barack Obama 🔥🌎🔥 apnews.com/article/busi...

Handily disproving white supremacy.

It's very very funny to me that Demsas tries to answer the (true) "it's just another group" thing with this just after the Abundance guys padded themselves on the back for doing exactly what she's criticizing.

you guys there is no putting this all back together again in the next admin without supreme court reform there is simply no way

Pat Parenteau is a legend and American treasure. Listen to him.

As I say here, there is no scientific justification to revoke the engagement finding. In fact, over the last 15+ yrs, the evidence of how climate change affects our health has only grown. Higher risk of allergies, dementia, fertility, heart disease, and death: that’s what’s on the line. @nature.org

As US elites bury their heads in the sand, China continues to act on climate change, both domestically and by turning much of its economy into an engine for clean energy exports. Hard to overstate the implications for climate and geopolitics over the coming decades.

Unbelievable. Matt Yglesias wrote a condescending article calling the masses too "unsophisticated" to understand elites, so they unfairly accuse them of "corruption." After insulting people for thinking politicians are motivated by greed, he announces a gambling sponsorship.

(1) B/c it was a poorly worded post; (2) AI is being shoved down our throats; (3) folks are enraged by the a-hole Tech Lords building AI who have absurd influence over the country's social, political, ecological, & economic trajectory; & (4) people feel abandoned by govt. It's not complicated.

Don’t talk to me about “moderation” when this lunatic is a prominent voice of the U.S. right. Its pathology of domination infects every facet of its ideology. From its abuse of people to abuse of the Earth.

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”

This is incredible. Like the previous few years, near all of the electricity capacity added to the grid was clean energy. The Inflation Reduction Act helped this - it made solar & wind cheaper but it also for the first time had a standalone incentive for grid storage. Look at the growth in storage!

Maybe this goes without saying at this point, but in any other presidential administration, this one thing, by itself, would’ve made headlines for weeks, prompted multiple investigations, and been a potentially presidency-ending scandal.

I first saw "AI;DR" mentioned on a social media post (maybe even on Bluesky) back in October 2025 by Esther Schindler. I thought it was awesome and screen-capped it.

BREAKING: The Pentagon let Customs and Border Protection use an anti-drone laser before the FAA closed El Paso airspace, AP sources say.

“This vote is about choosing stability, responsibility and the shared greater good for the future of our state,” Co-sponsor Sen. Angel Charley says in her opening re: the Clear Horizons Act #NMLeg #ClearHorizonsAct

The last year has clarified the battle line in humanity's societal evolution: A fight between a pathology of domination desperate to preserve extractive & exploitative systems & an emergent ecology of kinship that seeks to rekindle the connections we have to each other and the world around us.

I am persuaded by: 1) the AI-generated spam emails I receive each and every day incessantly peddling bullshit AI work systems; 2) all the AI pop up tools I neither need nor want; & 3) the wild contrast between the Super Bowl AI commercials & Bad Bunny's human-centered, joy-filled performance.

The problem is, the hype of AI is always so clearly manufactured. It’s sold as essential but mysteriously so — rarely is it portrayed as making life better; it’s sold as doing things WE want to keep doing. We want it to inventory our fridge and detect cancer, not make music and replace us at work.

guys, have you considered that we might need to just ignore all the outrageous and false claims, manipulation, financial fraud, and panoptic abuse on display because these tech evangelists might actually be creating a new god?! tfw you are ideologically programmed to believe the hype

Excellent, thought provoking essay folks in the environmental movement should read & consider. Too much of our movement is wrapped around the axle of elite-engineered R-D "bipartisan" political thought that is brittle, ineffective, & perhaps even dead--even as it persists like a lumbering zombie.

Let’s get this over to the House, people!!!

New Mexico Sen. Angel Charley = Awesome.

At this point, I hope the Washington Post just dies. Let something new rise from its ashes. Regardless, a strong, reasoned, and impassioned takedown of their editorial on the EPA’s rescission of the Endangerment Finding. Such ignorant fools. I scorn them. History will scorn them.

"In other words, the major oil companies want to have it both ways: they’d like to repeal climate regulations on cars so gas demand never declines, but preserve enough climate regulation so they can defend themselves in court."

we need to talk about that Ring Super Bowl ad

New Mexico, time to do all the things to get this passed!

Shout out to @revolvingdoordc.bsky.social for its great work relentlessly exposing the rotten core of Abundance.

Getting my threatening interactive CD rom from the cartel but it won't work with my version of Windows and I don't know how to update my drivers

Starbucks has scrapped a $250,000 limit on its CEO's use of the company jet for personal travel. CEO Brian Niccol uses the jet to commute from his house California to corporate HQ in Seattle. The company is lifting the cap while refusing thousands of baristas a union contract.

Don’t panic, markets! You just have to adjust to the cruel terrorization, detention, and deportation of “millions” of people. And remember, many of them aren’t even working age—they’re children! So don’t panic! It’ll all be fine!

Vermont US Representative Becca Balint being interviewed by Drop Site News shortly after reviewing more, unreleased Epstein files saying "They're all a bunch of sick fucks"

this is incredibly frustrating. By framing this as a policy demand Dems are aiding a disinformation campaign that is intended to confuse the public about what is constitutionally required.

“The organization is going to be led by former DCCC chair Cheri Bustos, who is currently a partner at one of the most Trump-connected lobbying firms in the beltway, Mercury Public Affairs.”

Every time I re-read Trump v. United States, it feels like getting hit in the head with a mallet.

The AI overlords are still training us. Give it time.

[leftistly] "trump doesn't care about the law! he can do anything!! we've already lost!!!" meanwhile

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.

In the midst of a climate fight in NM, one thing that stands out is that too many folks want Earthly realities to conform to their individual economic endeavors. Too few folks exercise their agency to align their economic endeavors to Earthly realities.

Another fantastic report from @carbontracker.bsky.social shows that the models policymakers rely on are systemically understating the economic risks of climate change.

Which one is this again?

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family. “He can’t sleep well at night. He wakes up three or four times a night screaming, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’” Liam's father Adrian Conejo Arias, said.

Fearing that educated judges might rule on climate cases, Republican Attorneys General successfully bullied the The Federal Judicial Center (the education & research arm of the federal court system) into removing a chapter summarizing climate science from their scientific judicial reference manual.

he literally dangled from power lines meant to symbolize the dilapidated Puerto Rican power grid

Hear directly from Sen. Mimi Stewart, sponsor of the Clear Horizons Act, where she shares why SB18 is about smart planning, clean air, and a stable future for New Mexico’s communities and economy. Sign our petition to get SB18 to the finish line: https://clearhorizonsnm.org/take-action/

As momentum builds, the opposition intensifies. New Mexicans: please sign this petition! It makes a difference!

Reality: Mars sucks. No one can live there. Also reality: the Moon sucks. We can’t live there either. More reality: Earth is the only place we can thrive.

As Trumpists moved the Overton window far to the right, and the Democratic party shifted rightward to absorb moderate Repubs, the right flank of the Dem party stopped being "centrist." It's now socially liberal and fiscally conservative with deregulation as a central goal. "Libertarian," basically.
