"Trump is a narcissist. He’s interested in God only as an endorser, benefactor, or tool in his own career." Maybe we can use his poor theology to our advantage:
Trump Is Worrying About the Afterlife. Thank Heaven.
“I want to try and get to heaven, if possible. I’m hearing I’m not doing well.”

“Today there isn’t a single state, metropolitan area, or county in the United States where a full-time worker earning the local minimum wage can afford a two-bedroom apartment.”
"The myth that hard work will lead to stability has been shattered, revealing a stark disconnect between the story America tells about itself and the reality of deepening precarity.”

American five-cent coins were hand-engraved by homeless people during the Great Depression. The coins then became tiny works of art, which could be sold or exchanged for more than the value of the coin. Skulls were a frequent theme.

Everyone can’t afford to move. And no one should HAVE to move.
People shouldn’t just feel safe where they live; they should feel that they are vibrantly welcome and included in how that place defines itself.
Ohio isn’t a red state; it’s now a gerrymandered state like too many others.

Heating is a huge source of GHGs, 4x more than cooling globally. Heat pumps provide heat and cooling, much more efficiently than old technology. Let’s do that instead of “it’s hot where’s my spray bottle” (which doesn’t work and makes things worse when it’s humid) bsky.app/profile/wait...
People are posting about AC and climate so a few reminders:
- globally, heating causes 4x (!) the GHG emissions as cooling
- yes, cooling needs will grow as the planet warms, but heating emissions will still be higher than cooling by 2050
- more cooling is essential for human health on a warming 🌎
