whites supremacy isn’t mostly people in white hoods or proud boys. it’s mostly this belief that the mere act of being white imbues superiority upon you; that white people should have first, best or only access to every good, opportunity & privilege has to offer before anybody else gets anything.

Back in 2016 or 2017 I got into a heated discussion with a guy I went to high school with in Winnipeg. He had been living in Texas for several years and he had made a hobby of trolling my feed to mock me for my anti-Trump Facebook posts.

A reminder of what I do and how much it costs.

If you're planning next year's inset give me a shout now, because I'm planning my 60th birthday celebrations at the end of August and I'd like to fit both in!

“It just really comes as a shock that such accomplished intellectuals, who’ve spent their entire careers pushing the upper bounds of human achievement, could be judgy about a machine that runs the entirety of human imagination through a shredder and glues together what comes out.”
"It really does disappoint me that so many brilliant colleagues—whose genuine breakthroughs I’ve profited from for years—would be so quick to condemn this newer, stupider way that I and others like me can make money off your life’s work, through stealing."

Weather and climate research funds are being “chainsawed” from NOAA's budget. Last I checked, Louisiana & Florida, which are maximally susceptible to Hurricanes, voted Red in the last General Election.

Wondering if residents there knew in advance this would happen.
