One thing I've learned from the Internet is that a lie needs 0% proof to be believed, but the truth requires thousands of pages of proof and still won't be believed.

A great overview of what's happening in the USA, why, and who is behind it; with citations. From 2 months ago... she nails the playbook that we've been watching. It’s horrific, but at least now I can understand where they're headed. And it’s not good.

This is not a joke

The Chaser compiled a list of the LNP IPAs corruption up to 2021

IT IS SOBERING

A vote for the LNP IPA will only allow them to continue with corruption and crime - -especially given many of the same people hide in their ranks

physics of climate impacts 101:
- Stuff gets hot (worse heatwaves)
- Hot air holds more water vapor (heavier rainfall)
- Hot air is thirstier air (higher drought risk)
- Warm water is hurricane food (stronger storms)
- Hot water expands and hot ice melts (sea level rise)

After 18 months of operation and a cost of $140 million to Australians, the staggeringly incompetent NACC has concluded its top 3 major corruption investigations, and guess what?

It has found no corruption.

The #NACC is a failure and a national embarrassment.

Just thinking that 'A vote for Peter Dutton is a vote for Rupert Murdoch" might actually work, given how widely Murdoch is despised

Big news! There's a new project that's raising cash to build out AT Protocol infrastructure that isn't dependent on venture-funded Bluesky, to stimulate the development of new social networks using that infrastructure, and to make the protocol's governance more democratic fortune.com/2025/01/13/m...

Hollywood stars and geeks unite to billionaire-proof social media

The likes of Mark Ruffalo and Jimmy Wales are backing the Free Our Feeds project, to ensure Bluesky's tech will thrive even if the company goes bad.

Cannot stop thinking about how Octavia Butler wrote a book in 1993 about climate change. It opens with deadly fires in LA in 2025. In the story, a fascist President has just won office with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again."

She was a modern day Nostradamus. If only we'd listened.

Why clouds are the missing piece in the climate change puzzle

Several new climate models currently being developed by world-leading researchers are projecting warming in excess of 5°C.

Why clouds are the missing piece in the climate change puzzle

Clouds can act as both blanket and parasol – warming our atmosphere at the same time as cooling it. But which effect will dominate?

This explains so much! Along with literacy levels in the USA... shocking!

Jemele Hill @jemelehill.bsky.social · Nov 21

This explains why conservative fear-mongering is such an easy play in America.

— Ppl believe trans ppl make up 21% of the population (Real number: 1%)
— Ppl believe Black ppl make up 41% of the nation (real number 12%)
— Ppl believe Jewish ppl make up 30% of the nation (Real number, 2%)

A lot of people could benefit from this research study... but I'd guess it'll only appeal to those already open and critically self reflective, rather than those who could really benefit (and the world could benefit) from engaging with its potentially belief changing outcomes: www.debunkbot.com

Please read this book.

It will crack the code. All the pieces will fall into place.

It’s truly a very different take.

I’ve been studying this way of looking at our human journey for almost 20 years. It is a game changer.
