There's a graphic in the new Ember report showing what happens if current demand and clean power growth rates continue: fossil fuels plateau by 2030. I think it highlights something kind of important, but probably not what you think

lol they're gonna help make this guy president in 2032 and blame hasan piker

cracking up at The Economist's understanding of Asia*

It is very funny that when the Strokes speak out about Gaza or Iran people point out they were prep school kids, as if that invalidates things. We want class traitors????

It will be the law of the jungle. Market analysts are already predicting that rich countries will outbid poor countries for scarce oil and gas supplies. This means energy famine for the Global South. Link: www.ft.com/content/6ca1...

Excellent analysis: "The reality is that the cattle industry is eating its own tail — using up the very resources it needs to sustain itself. It is a clear example of “double materiality” — whereby an industry is the victim of the physical risks it creates for itself." www.ft.com/content/d287...

🔥 Extreme heat is already hitting food systems. Farmers can’t work. Livestock are stressed. Yields are falling. We need more diverse, resilient food systems – and to phase out fossil fuels. 🔗 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

The way Tucker is talking about Trump is the way Trump talked about GWB, the way Pat Buchanan talked about GHWB, the way the Reagan boosters talked about Gerald Ford in 1976, and the way the Goldwater fans of 1964 spoke about Nixon and Eisenhower. This is just the right wing ratchet at work.

"Iran’s Forensic Medicine Department reports the martyrdom of 3,375 Iranian citizens in U.S.-Zionist aggression. - 2,875 men. - 496 women. - 40% of bodies were so shattered, only were identified by DNA tests. - majority of martyrs are from Tehran, Hormuzgan and Isfahan provinces."

100% of people in Gaza have "high levels of acute food insecurity" euromedmonitor.org/en/article/7... #Gaza #Palestine

Keep the Gaza giving circle stable.

Via the Chuffed: My 16-year-old sister, Retaj, was shot by military fire while she was asleep. It is truly a miracle that she is still alive, but her condition remains critical. You keep complaining about what's happening, but are you even sharing?! chuffed.org/project/1232...

Israel has been moving the yellow line in Gaza deeper into Palestinian land since the start of the “ceasefire” and has been killing, shooting, and kidnapping any Palestinians who approach it. Israel is silently stealing more of Gaza’s land.

We’ve attempted to translate 22 points from Alex Karp’s alien words into something more reasonable, like human words from someone who might play him in the biopic.

The biggest LOSER energy for white men who are tenured, and comfortable, and still complaining about DEI in higher education, really. We could power the planet with the screech of your whining because you have to see women, or people of color, or Black people, or disabled people at work.

"Almost all the evidence in [Highway Patrol Trooper Scott Collins's] killing of Brandon Webster is sealed... In addition, North Carolina's public records law keeps nearly all police investigative records hidden. As a result, state investigations of police shootings are never released to the public."

“Many are deeply opposed to the Trump administration and Israeli destruction of Iranian infrastructure during the recent war. The Israeli airstrike that destroyed a prominent synagogue in Tehran confirmed the fears of many Iranian Jews that Israel and Netanyahu don’t really care about their fate.”

"Doing nothing with th[e] land is ... better than putting [a] data center on there."

The phenomenon of right wing people from marginalized groups attempting hold the contradiction that they are both worthless and useful leads you to some fucking dark places What do you even say at this point

Brianna Wu advocates for the extermination of trans people by engaging in eugenicist selective abortions of fetuses determined to be trans.

My upbringing would have been just fine actually if my parents had, you know, just accepted me and been like "oh well, guess we just have three girls then" It wouldn't have been horrific at all, in fact

Hey so Brianna Wu is literally almost verbatim saying what my mother said about me 🙃

Imagine if the Biden administration had prosecuted Trump for his crimes with the same vigor the Trump administration is now attacking the SPLC for trying to bring down the KKK decades ago. www.lawdork.com/p/splc-indic...

I do believe he doubled down on some very white nationalist sounding talking points in the same convo he apologized for his Trump support.

I've been reading @garethgore.bsky.social's Opus. This, and some other reading, suggests that the immense wealth of the US Catholic far Right has been key to this.

Right-wingers love making up classes to distract from actual class contradictions

When major donors like the US and Germany condoned Israel's killing of hundreds of @unrwa.org's humanitarians in Gaza.

These Afghan refugees were in Qatar waiting for resettlement. They had been evacuated from Afghanistan following the Taliban's takeover of Kabul, since they had worked for the US & Western military, embassies. Nasty racism on display.

The endpoint of all this stuff is replacing UI design with a red queen's race where LLM agents acting on behalf of users are exploited by counter-agents acting on behalf of services and vice-versa, burning more and more compute and more and more trivial tasks in ways that produce no value.

“Open The Road!” These brave children held a protest after being tear-gassed by IOF/IDF for attempting to cross a razor wire fence in Umm Al-Kheir, West Bank. (Footage: independent journalist Andrey X for Caravan Collective, in Palestine)

Video wasn’t working earlier but watch as the Surprise mayor flees like the coward he is.

Two CIA agents were killed in a vehicle accident in Mexico over the weekend after destroying their competitor's drug lab.

Trump threatens Iran with potentially "blowing up the rest of their Country, their leaders included!"

Hello from the Surprise City Council meeting where most of the crowd is here to speak out against the proposed ICE concentration camp and the council’s refusal to put the detention center on the agenda as an action item like they said they would.

New short on @threewayfight.bsky.social: threewayfight.org/southern-pov...

Worth noting how many organizations like SPLC neutered themselves and the work that they do, trying to avoid this very moment. Especially since Trump won again. But MAGA was always going to come for them. And eventually, we'll all be targets. No matter how much we tried to remain nonpartisan, etc.

Reminder that Canada is helping facilitate the US strikes in the Caribbean and the Pacific.

This man is known for being awful and evil. New Hitler, potentially? Anyway. What do you think of him?

“In the S&T budget, the smart-glasses work appears under the Border Security and Immigration Mission Center’s Detention and Removal Operations program, which is funded at $7.5 million for FY 2027.”

“In other words, the glasses are being developed as a mobile biometric interface for frontline immigration enforcement.”
