It is dangerous to our democracy that Pierre Poilievre is unable to be given national security clearance. If he is unwilling, that’s a red flag - otherwise he is unable which should be disqualifying. No more excuses, no more delaying. It’s put up or shut up time.

The chills I got reading this
Incredible writing.
"Perhaps prison would have persisted this way forever. Perhaps our granite hearts and iron wills would have never crumbled. Perhaps the prison mentality, that we be cold and heartless, would have endured.

Perhaps. But then there were kittens."
When Kittens Came to My Prison, I Had Not Petted One in 15 Years
I had not touched a cat in 15 years when an orange kitten wandered over to sit with me in the grass.

The Sunshine List is good & I will die on this hill. It is weaponized by people of bad faith but it’s one of the *only* real baselines we have to for class, income + value of work. I think it should be everyone. It should be for people $0 to ∞

As politicians in the United States and México ramp up the nationalistic rhetoric, H-E-B’s appeal to Regios holds steadfast. Can a grocery chain unite us all?

Rage Against the Miocene.

(I love the Miocene, but we're not prepared to live in it!)
For the first time ever, recorded atmospheric CO₂ has exceeded 430ppm! The last time CO₂ consistently reached today’s human-driven levels was ∼14 Million years ago, with shorter periods of similar levels around 3-5 Million years ago.

Absolutely.

My personal politics (fwiw) were/are Atlanticist, but its game over for all that now. UK/Can/Nor/EU have to eliminate or minimise all any dependency on US now.

Since that perhaps requires some expansion, HELL no.

Eric Adams is now going maga on deportations and whatever else Trump wants. Even worse.

Hochul could remove him, as could the city’s committee.

He has a blatant set of conflicts. She should do so. Now.

We need more of this. This dancer will pay a career cost for their bravery and willingness to speak truth to power. Courage is contagious. No one does something like this without feeling the fear ahead of time. They choose to do it anyway. We can all learn from that.
