All the bellwethers of the Russian economy are in a state of collapse.

Russia's famed Kamaz Truck company reports a net loss for the 1st half of 2025 that wipes out years of previous earnings.

Over on a thread launched by @davidho.bsky.social there has been some interesting discussion of oxygen, in part trying to make sense of sound bites like "half the oxygen we breather is made in the ocean." I won't repeat what went on over there, but I thought I'd amplify on a few aspects of ...

The man who hasn't moved on from an election FIVE YEARS ago is angry that you won't move on from the Epstein List mentioned by Pamela Jo Bondi just FOUR MONTHS ago.

Nobody said that. Trump claims that tariffs have zero impact on prices that US consumers pay. We said that is false. Tariffs impact US importers, US consumers, US manufacturers, US exporters, and our trading partners overseas. Everyone loses in trade wars except tax collectors.

We Will Not Be Complicit In The Destruction Of Our Own Communities How Texas Democrats are putting their bodies between us and authoritarianism.

Breaking quorum is permitted by the Texas Constitution.

If there is a chance of saving the remnants of representative democracy we will have to do some things. Texas Dems are doing some things. Stand with them. Here’s a very good piece by @lonestarleft.com. www.lonestarleft.com/p/we-will-no...

Hope though can be multiple experiences felt differently over time & sometimes even overlapping.

And yes most hang on to false hope even with clear evidence. A wholesome life is what one should strive for as it's a journey individually & collectively.

Maybe if one is feeling the latter there’s new politics one can find; work one could do; comrades one can make. Many many of us are still here doing the work - without being naïve about the challenge or our odds - because the alternative is to give up, spiritually, emotionally, a living death.

I think there’s a big difference between “all hope is lost” and “I have lost hope” and in climate it is really important to distinguish between the two. My personal feelings, your personal feelings are not the limits of our collective politics.
