All @islandpress.bsky.social books are HALF PRICE through Sunday, 11/16 including my book, The Uncommon Knowledge of Elinor Ostrom. Ostrom's ideas are about more than just environmental commons. They are about the heart of democracy and self-governance - ideas that are incredibly relevant today.

"Here are three immediate steps [state and local lawmakers] can take to save consumers money on their power bills," writes @ilsr.bsky.social's @johnffarrell.bsky.social: www.canarymedia.com/articles/uti... 🔌💡
Electricity is too expensive. Here are three ways to fix that.
Lawmakers nationwide can lower power bills by cutting utility profits, rewarding the companies for boosting efficiency, and unleashing solar and storage.

I like how full text search of every book and human thought ever was a SOLVED PROBLEM in 2001, and now dicks at search engines and my own phone – a piece of silicon faster to respond than God was ever imagined in scripture – prevent it from working, _as a retroactive infantilizing design choice_.

Thinking a lot about how poorly our brains recognize long term subtle changes, like climate change or biodiversity loss. We've lost something like 1 out of every 4 individual birds in the US since 1970, more for some species.
There should be at least 25% more birds around you right now.
