Trying to see the good in life, big and small, grasping for optimism

I'm all about climate activism, green and human-friendly cities, public transport, nature aswell as queer, trans and BIPOC excellence

And just being a silly lil guy

My biological sex is female. It has changed

Phenotype is orders of magnitude more important than genotype for everything from discrimination to healthcare to sexuality

Chromosomes are meaningless and any law treating them as all sex is is wrong

It drives me crazy. To dare to talk about protecting the Earth when all you're doing is a PR stunt that pollutes the equivalent of a decade of a Westerner's life who already pollute a lot.

I love space exploration, but space tourism for selfish rich people is a cancer.

When I say you don’t have to worry about microplastics in your brain I mean that there is much stronger evidence that you should be worrying about other things that you don’t ever think about, like the draining of peatlands for agriculture, and things that you think about all the time, like fascism.

Friends, we know the constant bad news is exhausting. But this piece gave us an afternoon pick-me-up ☕️

The cracks in this regime are showing, and the resistance is growing stronger every day.

Let's keep going! 💚💪

When you really like art but you are also really bad at it so you just crop to the part of it that sucks the least

In the 2015 year report the USDA-APHIS website records show a cattle death loss in the state of Idaho of over 41,000, 29,000 of which died of what amounts to neglect, lack of food, water, shelter or fresh air.

Wolves killes ~300

But ranchers blame their failed business model on the wolves.

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

Oil and gas industry wants to be able to dump highly toxic fracking wastewater—full of benzene and heavy metals, often radioactive—with more abandon, including in rivers and streams, and White House is open to that.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

The courts have ordered Chump rehire park service employees. Not half of them, all of them.

The single most important thing you can do is visible protest. Don't let that bastad think he's getting away with it.

Resist

Less than half of national parks workers rehired, including in Texas
Despite court rulings, the National Park Service only rehired 400 employees who were fired in February.

My dear friend’s niece, who in October developed sepsis when a Georgia hospital refused her a D&C after a miscarriage, will be taken off life support tomorrow.

I don’t know the names of the countless others who have suffered and will suffered because of anti-abortion laws.

But her name was Haley.
