Author Joyce Carol Oates elegantly skewers elon musk again. Here, she has a re-tweet of acct avidreader on xitter. Avidreader posted “Wherever he goes, he wants to leave: SA, Canada, ultimately the U.S. in the long run, based on his behavior. This also includes Earth. A continuous disavowel of your home is odd, to say the least. He seems to have no club.” JCO quote-tweets with this response to that: “ ‘ wherever he goes, he wants to leave’—that’s because when he gets there, he has brought his own self along; & whatever club he’s invited to join has been devalued by the invitation.”

and she did it again:

This Acclaimed Author's Roast Of 'Uncultured' Elon Musk Is An Absolute 'Beauty' Joyce Carol Oates used the billionaire's platform to expose what he "never posts" about.

she spoke absolute truth—and it’s what those of us with souls have always thought about him. He’s a deeply empty, fucked-up man who takes no genuine joy in anything and clings to his own brokenness as an identity, hoarding wealth to fill the vast void within and unleashimg
cruelty to compensate.

daaaamn. JCO sliding that blade in so elegantly…

China’s CO2 emissions have been flat or falling for past 18 months, analysis finds World’s biggest polluter on track to hit peak emissions target early but miss goal for cutting carbon intensity

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"

China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

Alex Karp Goes to War Palantir’s CEO is good with ICE and says he defends human rights. But will Israel and Trump ever go too far for him?

@schumer.senate.gov has got to freakin’ go. This is bullshit.

They will get no peace from me if they’re unfortunate enough to be somewhere I am.

Democrats have to stop bailing out Republicans from facing the consequences of their own policies. And yeah, that means they have to stop sparing voters from experiencing what GOP government truly means.

Every time Dems step in, it only emboldens the GOP & they make it even worse the next time.
