I'm terrified, enraged, exhausted and can get mean.

Which makes moments of lucidity & joy all the more incredible.

Go love your people, play your guitar, chase your dog and bang your partner. #Bucketlist

I saw Jeff Beck with Jennifer Batten in place of his usual keyboardist. I saw them in Frankfurt FRG, when there was an FRG. Jennifer just slayed, crushed & shredded. Jeff was happy to let her kick his ass on songs like this - incredible.

Happy B-day Maestro!

By 2050, the authors estimate climate change will drag global crop yields down by 8 pct. Regardless of how much emissions rise or fall in the coming decades.That’s because carbon dioxide emissions stay in atm. If we ignore those long-run damages,we assign an economic value of zero to them. Is wrong

"U.S. agriculture and other breadbaskets are among the hardest-hit in the study’s projections, while regions in Canada, China, & Russia may benefit."

The #ClimateCrisis is a national security issue in more ways than one.

Denial imo is deeply rooted in class thinking which produces superiority thinking. Men > Women. White > Black. Human > Animal.

Is it time to reconsider the idea of ‘the banality of evil’?

Status: We spray 4 million metric tons (the weight of 2 million cars) of broad-spectrum antibiotics like glyphosate all over Earth every year.

We don't understand what we are doing because we are all insane due to alienation from nature.

Please don't interrupt autistics when they are focused, as switching tasks, transitions, & breaking focus can be really hard. Similarly, be aware of when they are stuck and can't just “snap out of it”—without considering specific ways to help:

Climate-warming activity from five countries caused 6 trillion in global losses. The top winners are China and USA. The other three are Russia, India, Brazil. How did financial people miss this massive global loss? 🙈

A gentle reminder: The closer we get to the final singularity, the more we will retreat back into our reptilian hindbrains and disintegrate under the weight of long since repressed archeopsyhic memories of our species' evolution.

It’s Climate Casino time!!!

This wager has been a long time in the making and I’m looking forward to having it be resolved one way or another in just over a month.

Sadly, Stuart Scott passed away on July 15, 2021. Rest in peace. But this wager should be paid to his family if it goes his way.
