we discovered sulfates have a cooling effect, and the big arguments against it are basically the environment is a complex system we dunno what other effects it’ll have and that’s fair but heating is also doing this and that appears way worse and that it‘d allow continued dependence on fossil fuels

sulfates go brr

discourse is going to be awful around the fact that geo engineering solutions to climate change exist, work, and are reasonably feasible

Come on, if there was even any suspicion of the president’s health being precarious, Jake tapper would be all over it

Anyone who declares Iran the new world superpower clearly hasn't taken into account the self imposed brain drain they are inflicting upon themselves

⌛️ It's now the 87th consecutive day of #Iran's internet blackout which has been in place for over 2064 hours. The measure has eliminated any transparency around executions, adding to the inhumane conditions and daily uncertainty faced by jailed critics, dissidents and tourists.

And she hasn’t lived in the US for a long time. She currently lives in Germany. 🧵👇 bsky.app/profile/maud...

The only reason SpaceX has been as successful as it is comes down to the fact that Gwynne Shotwell actually runs the show, and Elon just shows up once in a while to pitch crazy ideas which they mostly ignore as they pat him on the head for being a "genius."

This headline is hilarious when you learn that the rocket toppled over in a fiery explosion on landing

Taxing the rich: it's good. #mapoli www.raiseupma.org/news/dor-fai...

3 time Trump voter? GTFOH! They should have thought about all of this before they voted for him 3 times.

They don’t want Black doctors listed on a directory promoting YT doctors, but want to sue when they can’t get a listing on a Black doctors directory. Ken needs a folding🪑

A reminder: Celebrating Black military service is not “DEI woke shit.” It’s essential to America’s defense.

Xavier Becerra attended church at the New Philadelphia AME Church in Long Beach, California today. According to @j2|6s2022, Becerra “didn't preannounce his appearance to pack the pews. He didn't pander or perform. Instead he showed up authentically and spoke earnestly.”

Uh, guys, cooking at home was never a lifehack. Has everyone been under the impression that restaurant food was cheaper than groceries?

Rep. Mike Levin (D-Calif.) revealed Friday that House Republicans on the Appropriations Committee voted to make themselves eligible to collect from President Donald Trump's $1.8 billion January 6th slush fund, triggering immediate outrage online.

Our government telling an adversary to disregard the President's social media posts because they're not real and are intended for promotional purposes and US media consumption, says it all. Holy fuck.

On Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the brave men and women in uniform who gave their lives for this country that we love. It is a debt we can never fully repay, but we must never stop trying.

When I was a young White House intern, they took us to Arlington National Cemetery and they took us to see the graves of the first freedmen buried there after combat. It’s a reminder that some of the greatest defenders of American freedom are often the ones to whom freedom hasn’t been afforded yet.

Reminder that formerly enslaved Black people started Memorial Day. It was initially called Decoration Day as they decorated the graves of Union troops. “As He died to make men holy let us die to make men free”

Mexico will host Iran’s World Cup team in Tijuana after the US refused to allow the team to stay in Arizona, President Claudia Sheinbaum said.

You wanna hear a crazy story? On May 25, Bruce Tucker was declared dead. The Black Virginian suffered from a traumatic brain injury after falling from a wall he was sitting on, and hit his head on the concrete. Yes, that's sad. But that's not the crazy part. What happened next is 🧵

They’ll pour cement in their pools rather than share them. Close their schools rather than share them. Abandon their communities rather than share them. The South is STILL behind in every single metric save college football, because *white people would rather eat shit than share ice cream.*

I know exactly how it goes. Please feel free to keep going because I will absolutely post clips of his raggedy racist antisemitic ass spewing the hateful bs y’all excuse in the pretense of supporting Gaza. I want people to see him yelling about how elderly Asian women can “suck his di¢k”.

Another day of “all of this could have been avoided if folks would have just listened“. 😂Once again…this is in my shop. I might have to make myself a few spares because I’m about to wear this bish out.😭 comingandgoingdesign.etsy.com/listing/4508...

I bet you don’t have shit to say about his racism, antisemitism, bigotry, or other awful shit he says and does. When him and y’all tell us you don’t care…WE RETURN THE FAVOR. Are y’all laughing & smiling now?

Moving on…

Would you expect anything else from an unironic admirer of Tulsi Gabbard?

I'm just so tired of hearing about this dude. Guy couldn't help himself from forcing in a dig at Democrats, huh?

Take over? How the shit is he gonna do that? These chucklefucks barely got 25% of Democrats to vote for Vermont Jesus in 2020.

There are people who are genuinely concetned this guy has what it takes to take over the democratic party

How about I just laugh and shrug instead? I’m not defending shit

Note: This used Q-tip looking MoFo is using *Memorial Day* to campaign for a monster who just yesterday refused to apologize for saying a Purple Heart winner shot by the Taliban "did not deserve to live". PS. "3 house Bernie" IS "the oligarchy"

Jon Ossoff is making two big bets in his reelection campaign: Run harder against Donald Trump in a state Trump carried in 2024. And lock arms early with Keisha Lance Bottoms to show Democrats are unified while Republicans slog through costly runoffs. #gapol www.ajc.com/politics/202...

Black people lose voting rights. ; The far left: silence A far left podcaster who abuses his dog, spews racism and antisemitism, supports terrorists and America’s enemies, tells people to vote third-party, receives a subpoena Leftists: “ this is an attack on America, Democrats must help him!”

I'm flattered that you're so desperate for my approval you're willing to hallucinate things I said four years ago but you really need to get over it. Get help for that gambling addiction.

Pledges and Targets puts us from 1.7C to 2C. And frankly, there may be some "dark horse" breakthroughs that pull that trajectory even lower

Even under the absolute worst models, it is exceedingly unlikely that any given child is going to die

The really unsexy truth about climate change is that we're doing Pretty GoodAll Things Considered and dooming about it is just sorta the Midwit Position now 4C was where we were heading prior to Paris. Worst case scenario on current policies is 2.7C. An unfathomable amount of harm has been averted

I would love to know that backstory. Repubs started that whole “it was better in 2020” thing & people (including me) laughed at them. Of course it was worse in 2020! But whether they capitalized on the belief or they created it Trump’s team knew something most of us did not bc it helped him win.

Except we *didn't* "make him." He did it voluntarily. Jimmy Carter is the president who spent his post-presidency volunteering to build houses for poor people, helping negotiate peace agreements and defending human rights. That's why he got the Nobel Peace Prize.

The Cheneys understood better than you the danger we were in. You may wish to reflect on that. But you won't and will keep screeching about the "working class", by which you really mean white no college voters who are Trump's fucking base and full of contempt for you.

Reminder that Sean Trende takes money to diminish the voting rights of Black people, and therefore he’s a bad person. Whatever tender moments he may have with the people with whom he shares family ties don’t make him a good person.

Google is so borked

One of the people quoted is CD11 Councilwoman Traci Park, who has over past years repeated the debunked claim that unhoused Angelenos are almost all from out of state, and whose reelection campaign has repeatedly featured images of encampments (including one of vets cleared before she took office)
