Some news: tomorrow at 9am, Ted Koppel + CBS Sunday Morning will air a two-part story on the devastating surge of full-time workers being pushed into homelessness.

I'll be interviewed along with two families from There Is No Place for Us. It would mean a lot if you'd watch and help spread the word.

Electrification could now reach 75% of all energy demand, as the road-transport and heating sectors rapidly electrify 🔥🚗

These two sectors account for 50% of global energy use and are now ready to switch from fossil molecules to clean electrons.

How many times this piece says "routinely conducted" is a choice by the editors I'm sure.

But excuse me for being more than a little dubious about the intent here.

GOOD MORNING,

Senator Jeff Merkley is 13 hours into holding the Senate floor. Open the live stream on every device and support this 68yo man as he makes a stand for his state and our democracy. These stunts MATTER. Especially as they build in numbers and chip away at the false pretence of normalcy.

Do you know how cool that is for literacy, for book joy?! We are all worthy of reading, we are all readers 💚

Remember April 2009 when about 250,000 people took to America’s streets in Tea Party rallies and the media was like “oh man, the Dems are in trouble?” Approximately 28X as many people took to the streets to protest Trump yesterday. Didn’t even make the NYT front page.
In April of 2009 I observed the Tea Party rally in Salem. As this front page story says, there were a couple hundred people there. This past weekend in Salem there were roughly 2-3000 people at the Hands Off rally. Yet the Tea Party coverage seemed to take that event far more seriously.

This is absurdly bad PR. These are the images that need amplified. If you're online, think strategically about which images need to go viral to tell the story of the horrors of this moment. RT and share the shit out of them.
