Not to mention the bit where tons of people die from heat stroke every time there’s a heat wave!
"You wouldn't use air conditioning if you care about the environment" is just the new "You'd recycle your plastic if you cared about the environment." Both purposely default to individual responsibility as the cure when the real issue is industries & companies. It's. a. distraction. It always is.
There absolutely is this pervasive global idea that Air Conditioning Is The Sworn Enemy of Being Green (in a way that we don’t tend to think about heating), and this is dangerous and bad.

Providing cooling that uses less energy is great, but forcing people to go without entirely? Not so much.

New: Democrats and their media supporters are coalescing around the idea that Joe Biden should be more apologetic about his successful presidency. How about not doing that instead?
Biden Beat Trumpflation And The Trump Crime Wave
It'd be nice if Dems would just say so!

Good physical bookstores rock. I went to Kinokuniya to pick up Don't Call It Mystery 7-8, then browsed and learned Terry J. Benton-Walker wrote a book I didn't know about (Alex Wise vs The End of the World). Walking through a bookstore is easier and more pleasant for me than random online browsing.

The first thing a lot of us in Texas probably think about when we see a lot of state troopers these days are the nearly 100 of them that stood by and let children die at an elementary school because they were too scared to do anything about a single shooter. It's all fucking cosplay.

I guess this is obvious but: the student demonstrators facing down state troopers at the University of Texas today are as Texan, and as integral a part of Texas, as the fascist cops and politicians here. In case anyone was going to try some "Fuck Texas let 'em secede" shit today.

Ohio has basically defacto banned trans healthcare for adults using a similar strategy to why there was only a handful of abortion clinics in the entire Midwest before the Dobbs decision (TRAP laws)

cis people please repost this so this info doesn't get stuck in the queer social bubble
Breaking: Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) bans, by executive order, gender-affirming surgery for minors, effective immediately. The move followed last week's veto of a broader bill. He also announced two proposed rules that will apply to all care, including adults. substack.com/profile/2269...

I'm doing liveblogging rpg books on a small, private Discord server, and am currently doing Thousand Arrows. Any interest in my copying that sort of thing here?
