This is a really good time if you're not already connected to local groups and organizations organizing around particular issues to find ones in your communities that could use your talents and skills.

13yo and I are amusing ourselves at breakfast by looking up “raccoon” on google translate and seeing how many languages were like “yup, that’s a bear doing its laundry” - German: Waschbär (washbear) - Danish: vaskebjørn (wash bear) - Bulgarian: миеща мечка (washing machine bear)

Wow: “If you grow an acre of corn, it will produce 900 gallons of ethanol, which will get you about 25,000 miles for a Ford F-150...which is, not bad I guess. But let’s say we put solar on that same acre. It will produce enough electricity every year to drive my Lightning 550,000 miles.”

If you need protection from accountability for committing crimes to do your job, to do your job is to commit crimes. Police have low prevention/conviction rate. They commit crimes to ostensibly solve crimes. They’re a societal net negative.

I have been working on a story about carbon capture for like three months because I keep thinking "it cannot possibly be THIS much of an absolute shit show" and figuring I must be missing something or misunderstanding something and then every new expert I talk to tells me it's even worse

In case others also haven’t noticed: “Peacemaker” and “mediator” aren’t always synonymous.

I too used to be an 'oh, NOW you care' person when I was younger. I was profoundly annoyed with ppl who didn't "understand" what I already knew & then all of a sudden started caring. Then I realized that was a ME issue, not at all about them. EYE was annoyed while THEY were coming to consciousness.

Look at what the Democrats have been doing in GA with Cop City. Pure fascist tactics. True on its face. And millions of Democrats have no clue and some who do can't perceive the fascist tactics. I understand how frustrating that is.

I saw a Jim Halpert whiteboard meme years ago about how in time travel stories characters are concerned about not making a small change for fear of a huge affect but in real life no one thinks what they do can have any affect, and now I think of that any time I consider not doing one of these.

look, the answer to “crops will rot in the fields” after mass deportation is “chain gangs from for-profit prisons” they’re just not showing that card right now
Mass deportation is a kitchen table issue, and Trump and the GOP need to be hounded about it. "Kids will come from school to homes without their parents. Businesses would lose workers, some would just shutter. Crops would rot in the fields.” zacharymueller.substack.com/p/mass-depor...

It's the same reason the world understands the US has issues with race and then people in certain countries will look you dead in the face and be like we don't have racism while their country does everything in their power not to see it.

I always go back to DNC’s own perfect centrist brain boy realizing college experience is the best prediction of lifetime Dem voting but then recoiling from universal college like a vampire to sunlight - not a political party just an employment scheme for lawyers and consultants
Why not just have FREE COLLEGE FOR ALL rather than to depend on the largess of billionaires? Just such a mess.

I live in a hot hot dry hot heat, and I can’t recall a time something like this has happened here. Keep cool, New Yorkers
How hot is NYC? A bridge got stuck open. The vertical clearance of the bridge is only about 25 feet.The Harlem River connects with the East River at its southern end and the Hudson at its northern end. Video is from the executive producer of the NBC affiliate in NYC. tweet: x.com/JesseJHamilt...

There was lead in EVERY tampon they tested. There was less lead in organic tampons, but those had higher concentrations of arsenic. Also fun: It's 2024. This is the first ever study testing metals in tampons. Great. 🙃 www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/tox... Study: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't. www.zdnet.com/article/digi...
