people come up with all kinds of fanciful math to justify billionaires' wealth but imo present political moment demonstrates conclusively that we need to tax billionaires at whatever rate will keep them focused on their own fucking business rather than our Medicaid and pediatric cancer research

“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.”

An approach to the current state of things that warrants replication everywhere. Viewing ecological crisis and migration crisis (both internal and external displacement) as intertwined, it puts the law that allows these crises on trial. “In defense of a politcs of life." youtu.be/P-NQkgNQt9E

Of course.
Special shoutout to my colleagues who thought "diversity had gone too far," especially the ones who pretended that diversity statements were oppression.

Pretty wild that "24/7" fossil fuel generation all suddenly went offline and basically only wind and solar were still producing during today's Spanish/Portuguese blackout.
"Baseload" power can be dramatically unreliable
