Brains are chemistry-based computers. All information is physical. Reality is the truth. Science measures it. Sustainable love is Humanism. Greenhouse gas releases keep increasing the EEI (Earth's Energy Imbalance). #FBR #EPluribusUnum

Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

The inadvertent aerosol experiment of shipping desulphurization helps to reduce the largest uncertainty in climate science.

This contributes to the evidence of a much higher climate sensitivity, which means carbon budgets are lower and that we need much faster mitigation

If @drjamesehansen.bsky.social at all. (2025, mainly based on NASA CERES observations) is correct about the very strong shipping SOx forcing, the climate is more sensitive to anthropogenic forcings (incl both GHGs and aerosols).

Which e.g. means we need much faster mitigation and adaptation.

Sat in for this interview (as a tech) and was utterly fascinated by the conversation. The fact that we so often think of democracy/not-democracy as a binary is at the core of why we rarely see authoritarianism coming.

It's time to wise up. Thank you @srd.bsky.social for such a wise explanation.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.

McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.

Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

See the problem?

In a way, I find the authoritarian takeover of our media system even more disturbing than the authoritarian takeover of our political system.

Our political system has been failing basically my entire adult life. But, the media system provided accountability and sort of worked. Now it’s collapsing.

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

“In my work with the (Nuremberg Trial) defendants, I was searching for the nature of evil, and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy... a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”

Trump is going to continue to do everything in his power to try to incite violence somewhere. If Portland and Chicago don’t work, he’ll probably go to New York.

He’s looking for a reason to invoke the Insurrection Act.

The president is using the military to dismantle cities that didn't vote for him

The president is using the military to distract from women speaking out against his and Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuses.

We are not living in ordinary times. Extraordinary responses are called for.

That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.

Germany gets 60% of its power from renewables and is shutting down its coal plants. No blackouts. No high bills. Every right wing lie about renewables has been proven false.

Michael McFaul, Fmr. Ambassador to Russia, shares what he believes to be the three big gifts to Putin:

1. The meeting itself.
2. It's taking place in the U.S.
3. The symbolism of meeting in a place that was formerly part of the Russian empire.

This is Trump’s f*cked-up economy, but don’t miss this point in the jobs report—if it hadn’t been for healthcare, we would’ve actually lost jobs every single month.
