It shouldn’t be considered “extremist” to want a livable planet. What’s radical and extremist is allowing corporations to destroy it in the name of profit and calling it “growth.” We’re alive and fighting for everything that makes life worth living now and in the future — land, water, community.

OK, this is wild.
In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.
It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.
What the HELL?

The US being a hostile dictatorship is an apt description!
I was planning a drive through several states with my kids, as I did with my own parents 20 years ago. I’ve also been to the states often on my own. Now, I seriously doubt I’ll ever come back. You’re a hostile dictatorship, and I don’t feel confident you’re equipped to fix it.
