"Landman" is straight-up fossil fuel propaganda, being piped into millions of homes a week.
Is there anything similar for renewables? Is anyone even pondering such an idea? [tap tap] Is this thing on?

TikTok will be co-owned by China and Trump allies, Paramount was sold to a pro-Trump billionaire who's also set to buy Warner Bros, X is owned by an apartheid-bred fascist, WaPo and Meta are owned by Trump-cowering billionaires, and Murdoch owns the Fox empire. Here's why media has a liberal bias.

Read this interesting piece from @willbunch.bsky.social, where he argues that understanding the fixation with conspiracy theories like that involving Jeffrey Epstein is crucial for Democrats to effectively engage with voters and address the underlying cultural resentments driving Trump’s support.
MAGA cares more about Jeffrey Epstein than dying without Medicaid, which explains everything
MAGA rage over the Trump regime's failure to show an Epstein conspiracy reveals what matters inside a right-wing bubble.

Here is the original Popular Mechanics piece from 1912, which suggested that global warming would be a beneficial phenomenon. I was in a seminar today with a climate change historian who wasn't aware of this view. 🫠🧪

ICE grabs a man whose name they don’t even know at his immigration hearing, shackles him, expedites his removal.
Q: Why would anyone ever help our military again? — Trump is endangering and weakening our military.

1/🧵 Judges across ideological lines are ruling against Trump at strikingly similar rates (84% liberal, 86% centrist, 82% conservative). This isn't partisan opposition to Trump—it's the judiciary functioning as intended by cutting across partisan lines to uphold the Constitution.
