Simply being vocal about #ClimateChange is enough. Supporting those taking action is even better. But obviously taking action yourself is the place of #RealHeroes. Please click the hashtag and search by user to see the many actions people are taking. Support them (re-posts and follows), join them.

I worked for a Saudi Prince in the early naughties.
He literally did not know how to do any normal task.
In one example, he walked into a high fashion store in Milan. Put on a $10000 pair of gloves & walked out of the store, leaving his minders to deal with the fallout.

something you have to understand about Trump & his weird comments about the economy is that the dude hasn't paid for anything like a normal person in decades - never pumps gas, never buys groceries - so he's completely & utterly out of touch with what life is like for most of us

The war on renewables is being driven in part by nuclear operators and fossil fuel interests.

Nuclear and Fossil Fuels Join Forces to Undermine Renewables
The once unlikely alliance took root in Texas and now reaches right into the White House, where President Trump wants to ban wind energy projects.

If you’re an MP and you receive more than two or three times the amount of the average Australian then spend your own fucken money to attend national sporting events and especially for your NON ELECTED PARTNERS.

immigrants score the lowest on tests, but they also take all our jobs, while at the same time taking all the welfare and buying all the homes
Stephen Miller: "If you subtract immigration out of test scores, all of the sudden our test scores skyrocket"

Nearly 40% of newly minted billionaires this year received their wealth through inheritance.
This is the highest figure since UBS started releasing its annual billionaire wealth report in 2015.
Another reminder that the myth of the "self-made" billionaire is just that, a myth.

There's a post over on Twitter that I've been laughing to myself about. Some right-wing guy is celebrating that a school took down "All-Gender" bathroom signs and replaced them with "Single Occupancy Restroom" signs. And like... it's the same thing, man. You're celebrating a pointless relabeling.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

Russia’s reaction to Zelenskyy’s election proposal: “Zelenksy's statement about his readiness to hold elections is an arrogant bluff and a manipulation of the rules. He is setting deliberately unacceptable conditions for their conduct"
Zelenskyy says Ukraine could hold elections in 60 to 90 days if the U.S. and Europe provide security so people can vote.
If Europe and US are willing to put troops on the ground across all of Ukraine, and provide air defense then an election is possible. It’s their move, now.

The parallels are frightening, and one might assume that the only book Trump has read was Hitler's "Mein Kampf"! However, he also has advisors, the Heritage Foundation, and "Project 2025."

Hitler saw the banishment of Jews from society as a solution to Germany’s problems.
Trump says migrants are “poisoning” the blood of the US.

After the 2024 presidential election, Trump, supported by leading tech billionaires and business giants, relied on the mobilizing power of the MAGA movement and on gaining unlimited power.
