A list of the most effective ways an individual can catalyze change at the scale we need to effectively tackle climate change, based on social science.

I’m a scientist who studies how climate change impacts our lives and the places we love.

Most of us are worried, but many feel stuck on what to do. If that's the way you feel, check out this list below!

We can’t fix it alone, but I know we can together. 💚

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

Powerful front page from L'Humanité on Jean Marie Le Pen: 'His Profession Was Hatred'. The dagger pictured was recovered at the scene of the brutal torture and murder of Ahmed Moulay in Algiers in 1957. One of multiple pieces of evidence showing Le Pen was a torturer.

Wikipedia is the last major, visible platform for facts that they can’t buy. The attacks are going to be merciless.

JFC, talk about obeying in advance.

Hey, Zuck: You’re a soulless, shameless, obsequious, servile, boot-licking coward.

Today is an object lesson in the radicalisation of the British right-wing press. Britain is being disparaged and insulted by a foreign far-right conspiracy theorist. But the Mail, the Express, the Telegraph and even the Times choose focus their criticisism on the British prime minister instead.

We need more research on social media effects on elites, activists, and other subgroups per our recent Nature review www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This is the second CNN health article that fuels conspiracy narratives that I've seen in the past few weeks. The first was this one:

Billionaires should not own social media platforms.

Billionaires should not run our newspapers.

Billionaires should not control our politics.

A free media is a democratic media - a public good that is owned and run by us all.

This is a great thread about the challenge Trump and the current moment represent to our established paradigms of analytical method.

It's something I've felt with regard to my own efforts to make sense of global politics and order.

Tooze knows this, and wrote about it eloquently. His article of 2020 cites Latour on climate denialists and compares it to Arendt on Eichmann: “This is not diplomatic talk. This is an indictment worthy of a climate Nuremberg. Should we engage in diplomacy with people like Eichmann? Of course not”

Every time Alice Weidel says she is defending German national interests she should be asked what the AfD will do if Musk does something that undermines German businesses.

Si no está acuñada ya, habría que acuñar la palabra 'westsplaining': que Fulgencio Goicoechea te explique desde el sofá de su casa de Móstoles, con una mano en un huevo y la otra tuiteando, por qué como sirio no te puedes alegrar de que haya caído Asad.

So many Syrians I've known over the years can now return home if they want to.

They now have a choice most of us take for granted.

Amazing days.

I do think it's important to accompany a chart like this with the percentage decrease in turnout, because the hed suggests Trump "increased his support" when the reality is that his support is pretty much the same, and the red lines indicate how many people who voted Biden *did not vote this year*

Musk compró Twitter para aportar medios a un objetivo y lo ha logrado. Borraos la cuenta. Allí no hay nada que hacer ya y es un peligro real seguir usándola. Si dependéis de ella para vivir dependéis de los nazis. Buscad alternativas. Ya.

I just really hope that the stupidity of this government once again gets in the way of its evil

We Europeans (including the UK) have no time to be depressed, to be angry, or to be scared. Too much time has been wasted over the past two years. No more burying one’s head in the sand, no more hoping for the best. Time to step up. For our security, for Ukraine, for our future.

Cuidaos la salud mental, que el mundo sigue. No haría doomscrolling, ni leería compulsivamente.

Centraos en el presente y seguid empujando en común por un mundo mejor y por hacer la esperanza posible. 🍉

Un paso de gigante para la Internacional del Odio. Especialmente grave a nivel planetario por las consecuencias climáticas. Europa no puede seguir ligando su destino al de EEUU. Un buen día también para Putin.

Well. Ok. I am struggling for what to say.
I know a lot of people are very sad and very scared. I am with you, always.

This is a tough night & I am going to try to get some sleep to wake up w a clear head.

In the meantime please be kind to each other tomorrow and the coming days. We will need each other - together - and can’t let him divide us.

I will not give into despair and apathy. Let’s be resilient & persist.

A picture of Sarah Michelle Gellar in a white bathroom with some product. The text reads ‘l've been a lovephilosophy fan for years. One of the main reasons... they continue to innovate, while still keeping true to the gentle formulations that hooked me in the first place. I guess that's why I "love philosophy"’

I think we should just pretend that this is a huge W for philosophy, rather than an ad for something

I mean, he's just mentally ill.

heard someone say that trad wives don't want to be farmer's wives they want to be plantation owner's wives and yeah they nailed it
