Critics have compared me to, β€œDr. Seuss in a morgue,” said I’m, β€œtoo awake,” and called me, β€œan activist freak and a fool.” I say that's too generous. βœ¨πŸ’–πŸ˜ˆ

Tesla Cybertruck inventory goes through the roof Tesla Cybertruck is experiencing a significant increase in unsold inventory in the US and facing huge challenges in meeting initial sales expectations.

Cybertrucks are piling up -- apparently no one wants to buy them -- but they can't stop making them, b/c shutting the factory down is too expensive. Great work all around.

"Refusal is active. Angry. It demands struggle. An attachment to the righteousness of fossil fuel lifestyles, and to all the hierarchies that depend upon fossil fuels, produces a desire to not just deny, but to refuse climate change, and a willingness to engage in authoritarianism to do so"

Wait, I just remembered the time I was a panelist for a convo on climate reporting and I didn’t say anything. Not a word. Also how do you use this website

Ok imagine a giant inflatable Earth that I’m just starting to circumnavigate. This is an installation outside the Kennedy Center in D.C., where the grass is green and lush and the sky is kinda gray. Me and Earth are in the background of the pic. In the foreground is my friend Emily’s baby hound Jane, a German shorthaired pointer that everyone on real Earth wants to stop and pet. She has her tongue out, a chocolate brown head, and the rest of her is speckled. The birddog is fucking stoked about a squirrel off camera while I have this bird’s eye view of inflatable Earth. I don’t know what Jane is thinking about, but I’m thinking about whether aliens lock their doors when they drive past our planet. I would.

60 years ago today, MLK Jr. gave his β€œHow Long, Not Long” speech before an audience of 25,000 after the completion of the Selma to Montgomery marches to demand equal voting rights.

As a direct result, Congress passed the Voting Rights Act of 1965 to protect black voters' rights.

A decadelong climate lawsuit saw plaintiffs grow from childhood to adulthood. Now, it's over The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear a petition filed by young climate activists who argued that the federal government's role in climate change violated their constitutional rights.

This is what real patriots look like.

SCOTUS can decline to hear their case, but it can’t stop the movement to secure a healthy and safe environment. Ain’t y’all ever heard of alchemy?

πŸ“ŒThe biggest problem isn't that Pete Hegseth is an under-qualified moron who is texting our military secrets to our enemies like some 15-year-old, blackout drunk.
The problem is there is an entire anti-American, bought-off political empire on the Right that simply doesn't give a shit anymore ...
