SoCal friends:

Many animal shelters are overwhelmed from people dropping off beloved pets they can't take with them as they flee. Please consider donating and fostering. Pasadena Humane is one such org. Contact your local animal orgs to see if they need help.

For those hoping to see CO2 growth slow down, I've got very bad news. The annualized rate of CO2 growth just hit an all-time high of 3.50 ppm as of December, 2024. The previous record fastest annualized CO2 growth was 3.49 ppm in January, 2017.

Chuck Schumer, asked if Biden could have served another four years had he stayed in the race and potentially won, says: "Well, I'm not going to speculate. As I said, I think his record is a stellar one and he'll go down in history as a really outstanding president."

This might be my favorite podcast right now. Sharp, incisive commentary about the intersection of media and power. As the name states, claims are sourced, but w/o being pedantic. Most importantly, discussions happen beyond the boundaries of conventional framing, but not purposefully outrageous. 👍👍
In Ep 214, "Fake Ceasefire Talks and Feigned 'Concern': How US Media Helped Distance Biden From Gaza Genocide," we examine the media's excuse-making regime designed to not only absolve the US of its role in destroying Gaza, but paint it as a bumbling humanitarian NGO. soundcloud.com/citationsnee...

it disgusts me the national democratic party barely pushes back at this attempt from the right to wind back LGBTQ rights decades after claiming to be the party of LGBTQ rights

Lack of genuine community is going to kill us if we can’t build it where it’s lacking. The contradiction of millions of lonely people is unsustainable and our resilience as individuals is nothing close to what’s needed to face what’s coming, whether fascism or climate change.

This is what Schumer is doing with the time he has left. Not stacking the judiciary or protecting a free press from government surveillance. Instead belong conservative Christian nationalists enforce a racist anti-Palestinian and frankly antisemitic definition of antisemitism.
Schumer moving ahead with a bill that will instruct Trump's DOE to use a definition that includes examples according to which several Jewish Studies professors will be considered antisemites to assess claims of antisemitic discrimination on campus

Coming soon! The SAGE Handbook of Decolonial Theory, of which I’m the lead editor. All royalties will be donated to Gaza. Since these books tend to be expensive, ask your libraries to purchase it when it’s published in July 2025. Cover is not official.
