People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

In an absolutely devastating ruling, the Supreme Court has allowed the transgender military ban to go into effect.

This is shocking - the ban explicitly called transgender people dishonorable for being transgender. It is as clear as day soaked in animus.

Bees in the US are emerging 10.4 days earlier in the spring than they did 130 years ago. A biologist explains how a timing mismatch with flowering plants is worsening pollinator decline and reducing food production. buff.ly/pG5fXgA

Bees, fish and plants show how climate change’s accelerating pace is disrupting nature in 2 key ways
Fast-rising temperatures can change how plants and animals behave and disrupt the delicate timing of pollination.

Did u know? The evolution of insects is amazing. This is a handsome male Hairy-footed Flower Bee. He has long hairs on his legs that are used to scent-mark females during mating. These hairs also capture pollen & so help pollinate flowers as he forages for food. Marvel in the microscopic 🌱🌿🇬🇧🌱🪲🌍

I recently read & reviewed @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social's book, 'Reconsidering Reparations'. The connections he draws b/t slavery, colonialism, capitalism, and climate justice are conversations we don't have enough of in ecological discourse. I recommend reading it.

Absolutely not.

Every time someone tries this, I point out how it biases against Black speech. Every. Time. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Also from the launch of the Perspective API and its "toxicity" score.

Police don't kill too many Black kids."
Score: Not toxic.🤦🏿‍♂️

"Police kill too many Black kids.

Instead of obsessing about Climate 200's crowdfunding to support candidates committed to saving our planet, maybe the media could focus more on Atlas Network's funding of individuals and organisations to promote climate denialism and undermine democracy to benefit the (very) privileged few?
A vote for the Liberal Party of Australia is a vote for the #AtlasNetwork and the destructive and noxious actions, values and beliefs held by individuals, politicians, governments, organisations aligned with it.
