I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

You will start seeing the term “traditional energy” used instead of fossil fuels. Now that they are more expensive than clean energy, take longer to build, and are unpredictable in their life-cycle operations, you have to appreciate their value as antiques. It’s nostalgic. Flames are pretty.

what’s your sign?

20 years ago, normal people avoided technology and techies would jump on the newest gadgets as soon as they could now, normal people buy smart toasters & coffee mugs while every techie I know is on the verge of retreating to the forest

In 2008 I met a climate scientist from Mali who was advocating for this so long that he looked exhausted. Absolutely amazing man. He was working so hard on this. And then I see numbers like this and my heart just soars. Youba Sokona, you (and your peers) really did it. www.ipcc.ch/people/youba...

it's 2007. you're scrolling your favorite rss feeds in google reader. the internet ad market has led to a boom in mid-sized blogs that can employ tens of writers and editors in a relatively niche subject. you don't know it, but this is the last time journalism will be any good.

my kid loves me but also yikes

I would take bullets for you ND motherfuckers undiagnosed and uncertain what my true deal is, but they will have to come through me

tbh this is the first time in a minute I’ve had to hand it to her

I’m pretty much constantly angry about how the global media ecosystem supercharged the current wave of fascism and of course I can’t help but think of Al Swearengen talking about the telegraph coming to Deadwood

bring back the weird gay shit

Apeneck Sweeney spreads his knees Letting his arms hang down to laugh The zebra stripes along his jaw Swelling to maculate giraffe

All my best to this FEMA employee, and may they succeed in their mission:

I discussed with someone last night the possibility of producing $15 book reviews or album reviews for a national magazine.

State-level progress towards a just transition to renewable energy is more important than ever. Here are some fantastic examples on how to make this happen!

no, kittens, you cannot have my coffee

everything that Trump and co think they are accomplishing by dismantling USAID and various NGOs could actually be accomplished in reverse by dismantling the feudal car dealerships ruling towns everywhere

Dinky’s sister Stella is half his size. they beat each other up all day long. when she can’t find him, she sings mournful little songs

they should invent a well that isn’t full of loneliness

A double news update after a summer respite from social media: 1) I’ve joined @bloomberg.com to report on China & climate! 2) Just in time for China’s new climate targets, announced by Xi today. I’m thrilled to cover this special beat—and to be diving right in: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

one of the funniest things about our neverending hell politics is that the highfalutin lefty french theorists are completely right, but only one side understands this and forms its entire political strategy around it, and it's not the side that reads those theorists

"Look, I ain't messin' with that guy, he's connected!" "Connected?! Connected how?" "He's part of Dinky Pinkerton's crew!" "Oh sh-"

Getting my bar trivia titles stripped over allegations of Tylenol use

I must tell Dinky immediately that he is a space kitten from the future, he will pay zero attention but he should know these things

whoa. Every single one of the Sinclair advert buyers on this list is automotive or automotive related (insurance). That is one aspect of the power in our society held by car companies that I haven't seen studied enough.

my alleged friend’s withering diagnosis of me, age 10: “oh my god, Lissa, you’re soooo smart, but you’re sooooooo stupid” you know what: I can’t argue with it

Y'all want so badly for autism to be something new when it was there the entire time, you just had a shitty way of describing it and chained us to radiators.

look, we exist! next time we’ll get @costasamaras.com and @katie.bzky.team the respectables ✨

everybody now: it’s me, hi, I’m the problem it’s me

Fuck these guys. “The Trump administration canceled grants for street safety measures, pedestrian trails and bike lanes in communities around the country this month, each time offering a simple rationale for yanking back federal aid: the projects aren’t designed for cars.”

i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

do you ever just want so bad to be the cause of someone’s delight but all you can do is make noise at them like a grackle

I mean, personally, as a mother, I am basically an autism factory, like my father before me but on the bright side, we are delightful people RFK do your worst, we’re already upstate and the fresh air has only made us worse

yes good now let the science reporters cover climate policy

I ordered fancy numbers to put on my house and I feel fancy about it

"Make cities better" may be the best direction for climate action in these grim times. 80% of Americans live in urban areas. Creating neighborhoods with reliable, frequent public transit, protected active transit, and dense, affordable housing could make US cities *so much better to live in* while..

breaking from me: the trump administration just suffered its first major loss in court over its onslaught on offshore wind the revolution wind project can now resume construction after a federal judge found its developer orsted was likely to win against the trump order to stop work @heatmap.news

"Our measurements show that wheat and grass-clover mixtures grow just as well between vertical solar panels as in open fields. At the same time, the panels produce electricity in a daily pattern that better matches energy demand. It's a win-win," Get these to Kansas ASAP

don't make me tap the sign

"Things that have annoyed me in the children's books I read to my son"—a list:

HEAVILY endorsed, I have visited my pal at the South Bend Catholic Worker house and they are doing so much good work in the community

so true and it took me so long to see it

Vivian Wilson talks about how accessing gender affirming care as a teen was lifesaving at the Teen Vogue Summit.

don’t cancel me @mpgphd.bsky.social but this is so real

the furries defended us the juggalos defended us and even knowing this, I was still not prepared

if any of us ever succumbs to poster’s madness, someone from climate bluesky will have to step up and represent the quadrant or we will end up with an Avatar: The Last Airbender situation

help us @dieworkwear.bsky.social, we mean well but jfc we can’t even save ourselves
