Today is #EqualPayDay, a reminder of the gender pay gap.

In 2024, women were paid 18% less than men per hour, on average. Black & Hispanic women experience even larger pay gaps.

The Trump admin's recent actions will worsen this gap and harm women & workers of color.

A misty view through the archway of St Michael's tower on Glastonbury Tor this morning. I often look at this view and imagine all the people who have stood in the same place over times gone by and what stories they could tell.

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

Your 'doom quote' for today:

"The end isn’t coming—it’s here. The walls are closing in, the shadows are growing, and no one’s coming to save us. We built this nightmare, and now we’ve got to live in it until it swallows us whole."

Reading up on Starlink (starting on Wikipedia), I stumbled across this paragraph. It could explain why USAID was targeted so quickly and ruthlessly by Elon Musk.

How about instead of profiling the “personalities” saying horrible things at far right conferences, we profile the people who paid to put on those conferences.

Cmon the billionaires pushing this poison have names & faces.

Mikhail Klimentov (@leadergrev.bsky.social) posted that there was no evidence I am an Elon Musk biographer. I responded with a mountain of evidence and he immediately blocked me so no would see that he had been wrong and been corrected _or_ get the right information. This is where America is at now.

So today I spent 3 hours volunteering at Direct Relief International packing hygiene bags for delivery to the next emergency somewhere on the planet. Toothpaste, soap, hairbrush and so on...

We're so lucky to have them here in Santa Barbara, one of the best nonprofits on the planet.

How f&%ked? An anti-vaxxer I know said they're putting measles into the chemtrails.

"But now there’s a significant outbreak in Texas. Only 48 cases have been identified so far, but officials believe that there are hundreds more that haven’t been reported."

The most unpatriotic members of any society are the far right. They will always align with foreign interests against the interests of their own nations. They will always undermine national institutions and national values in pursuit of their own interests. When they pose as patriots, they lie.

Dear Cornish people, if you don’t stand up and oppose the 16 SEZs that are being installed right now in Cornwall, you can expect to see all public services privatised and absorbed by private equity, corporate taxes unpaid while ordinary citizens taxes are hiked>

If Labour approves the Rosebank oil field, it would be the final straw for many of its green-minded voters. It might appease corporate power for a moment, but in doing so it will lose far more than it gains.
The government seems to be on a self-destructive streak. Now's the time to rethink.

That's right, NOAA just output its monthly data for CO2 and other GHGs, so for now, we still have access to this information.

And this one is crazy. A one-year gain of 3.85ppm.

I hate to break to Trump but Two-Spirit (trans) people have existed here in North America for thousands of years. They predate the arrival of white people and their “Christianity.” Trans people will be here long after Trump is dead and gone.

There is no automatic reversion to "normal" in politics. Nor will the timid business-as-usual which got us into this mess get us out of it.
We'll achieve a better society after Trump and similar tyrants only through massive and focused movement-building. It has to start right now.
