Happy partially muscled skeleton screaming by the perimeter fence day to all who celebrate. A solemn 30 second screaming before vanishing will take place at 11am.

This doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have tried, it’s just that even success required overshoot (ie, missing the target). And because it’s been framed as a “game over” threshold, media coverage of 1.5 has contributed to the idea that climate action is now pointless. That is not, and will never, be true.

The thing is, 1.5 degrees was was an unrealistic target from the start. The only way earth system models could make it work was by overshooting the target, getting to 0 emissions, and then devoting 2-3x the land area of India to carbon removal later in the century. We’d already warmed 1.2 degrees C.

this! thank you!

we need a department of kerning

Let's talk about the Burgess Shale, and the crazy animals it tells us about. It's a formation in Yoho Natl. Park (and others) in the Canadian Rockies near the town of Field, BC. It's made of mudstone (type of shale), deposited 508 MYA, in the middle Cambrian.

Fundraising has kept me fed, housed, and on the dean's list through one high-stakes crisis after another. I NEVER would have made it without y'all and I truly believe anyone willing to put their body and life on the line for midwifery training (for YEARS of no pay) deserves the same. #Blacksky

THEN 2 yr old: no Momma I do it by self! Me: how about teamwork this time? 2 yr old: okay, teamwork by self Me: …. ——— NOW Me: okay I’m going to have some calm time by myself 8 yr old: okay! I’ll hang out and have calm time with you! Me: ….

My ligaments are feeling extra stretched and sore today, did someone put me on the rack while I was asleep?

These Wood Ducks would not cross a picket line — nope, never, nada! #BirdOfTheDay #DucksOutOfWater #birds #NoContractNoCoffee

I attended SFF cons as a teenager. I stopped getting regularly and persistently sexually harassed at SFF cons sometime in college. "Oh wow you look way older" No the fuck I did not because when I WAS older these weirdos stopped. They know what the hell they're doing.

i know you would *never* let a PSL touch your lips, you don't have to tell me, I have a decent burr grinder and a beginner machine at home. But solidarity is solidarity, and retail worker's unions are *incredibly vulnerable.*

Girls only dream of one thing: destroying a city so completely that the resulting layer of ash is known as our "Destruction Horizon"

The only reason we know anything about the Epstein files is because the survivors refused to give up. This release is about the the bravery & tenacity of the survivors who continue to fight for justice in a system seeking to crush, silence, and erase them.

I think it's couple different things : - they want to create a world where drugs have to get their stamp of approval . It keeps them paid and means people can never leave them out of the loop - people who have the ability to regulate their pain are harder to manipulate and control - incarceration

I have made this exact face tbh

I ALMOST MISSED EXPLODING WHALE DAY

In this country, children are seen as extensions of their adults, and not as individuals worthy of protection and dignity on their own. Once you understand this, a lot of things begin to make sense.

The United States of America has never cared about children.

worm on a string creature

RE starbucks picket line--the relevant detail is "picket line, do not cross." Pass that along. Proclaiming that you are in no danger of doing so because you are too aesthetically pure to let Starbucks coffee pass your lips is...unhelpful and does not give the impression you perhaps imagine it does.

The strike is not about whether or not you approve of Starbucks coffee. It's about the workers, who like all workers deserve equitable treatment and fair pay. That is the issue. Why bring up your personal feelings about the coffee? Nobody in this conversation cares. Start another thread about it.

Observe, Greg is not above putting lips to oxen

I would be utterly thrilled to rid the Democratic Party of everyone who was pals with Jeffrey fucking Epstein why exactly would I want a child abuser to make government policy

Awww happy little trees!!!

Well, it's a little clearer now why billionaires are so invested in technology that produces better written emails.

Hey so guess what. Sometimes people who like very young teen types decide the best way to get access is to find an even younger child and spend years grooming them. Ask me how I know.

The United States of America has never cared about children.

"We're snailposting, post your snails." And because Lorrain doesn't do art trains - Here are some of her snails 🤗🐡 🐌

As all this disgusting Epstein shit starts surfacing more and more, I hope we don't lose sight of the fact that apparently every major media outlet knew everything and instead spent their time money and energy attacking the trans community.

FYI, those mags are Analog, Asimov's, F & SF.

Seriously, it's a good time to log off. Reading all these old emails and headlines isn't activism. Please take care of yourselves.

None of this is good. Most especially for the victims.

Dang, Sarah Kenzior got suspended right when a bunch of stuff she wrote was proved true.

Sometimes I think about how I posted on Facebook like a decade ago that I was tired, nothing special, just a long day, and several mom friends jumped into the comments to tell me to “try having kids” I was in my (unannounced) first trimester of pregnancy.

Jesus loved the hoes. Matthew 21:31.

OH MY GOD! A GUY IS KILLING LAURYN HILL SOFTLY WITH HIS SONG AND YOU'RE JUST STANDING THERE?!?!

And yes the Dems responded to a multi generational, multi ethnic, sea to shining sea, repudiation of this as baby’s avoid starvation only by our collective bonhomie By trying to bring “dad” voice back And then get punked and played

Meanwhile we are in a cultural ABYSS because of the speed with which folks have given up on DEI and it’s so and they are basically reliving the 90’s And may kill cinema But hey yall got to see Black women struggling and trans folks pushed into hell

I am exhausted of hearing about Jeffrey Epstein and seeing a bunch of men and women use the memory of a dead pedophile for political expediency. I wanted to hear it all from the mouth of his most outspoken victim, and, frankly, one of the bravest women who ever lived. Please read this book.

“You can’t be mad at Democrats for not fighting because they’re the only thing we have to fight fascism” is an interesting political philosophy that I would like to unpack, not in the sense of giving it further examination, but in the sense of throwing it out the back window.

Hi please consider getting holiday gifts from my store because the first of two supplies orders arrived today and *panic laugh*.

At some point especially once we break 30? The leftist urge to avoid systemic and historical thinking by triangulation land condescension isn’t neutral If you start any argument with “Trump is unique in crassness or pedophilic tendencies” You’re just wrong

the framing on this Mamdani veteran's day thing by some reporters is wild, they're like "oh so you're boycotting parades, is this the first parade you're boycotting" and he's like "I decided to serve actual veterans & sit down with them to see what they're dealing with" & they're like "but parades?"

Logging onto Bsky this morning:

I've been sitting on this and trying not to leak but... It's us. We were one of the 80+ :) financialpost.com/pmn/more-tha...

So apparently my body has decided the best way to keep me asleep is give me vivid dreams of doing the things I’m supposed to be getting up for. 🙃
