Peatlands cover just 3% of Earth but store nearly 1/3 of the world's carbon. When drained for mining, they spark "zombie fires" that burn underground for months, releasing 100x the carbon of normal wildfires. Originally published by @vox.com .

Fabulous essay
On what would have been Divine’s 80th birthday, Herman Lategan explores how Harris Glenn Milstead became the actor who made ‘filth’ divine, and why his legacy still disrupts pop culture.

Many of us are told a story our whole lives, one where the world has a neat sex and gender binary. This story oppresses intersex people—and to an extent—everyone. This #IntersexAwarenessDay, Sam invites you to disrupt your own ideas of sex and gender.
