Hey, any mjc students on hereYou need to come look at this. Check out the changes that they're putting in many of which I totally disagree with. They are removing handicapped parking and putting in roundabouts that we honestly do not need on either campus.

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004.

Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

This seems like the most straightforward and also basically accurate message.
instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"

China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

We’ve got the new Sheriff-elect on @allinwithchris.bsky.social tonight!
Trump flipped Bucks County, a swing county in Pennsylvania, last year.

The GOP sheriff enthusiastically followed his lead, partnering with ICE to help Trump’s deportations.

Dems flipped the office by 11% last week, ousting the sheriff after promising to end the ICE contact.

Paid a Colombian tea grower $1,500 for a shipment. Got billed $150 by the Trump administration at the border. *I* got billed. Not the tea growers. Not the Colombian government. Me. The American business owner. I paid the Trump tax.

Even trump's own A.I. on truth social is telling you the truth, and it's supposed to skew conservative. So that really tells you how many lies he's actually telling.

Honestly, the wedding and everything at the end for Marwani was absolutely amazing and beautiful. My chief complaint is I took the fricking show off the air.

So Trump is threatening to change the host city of the next Olympics held in the United States, he can't only the ICC can change the host city so he can appeal to them to change it. But the only reason he would want to is if it's in a democrat lead city. So he is completely delusional.

Of course. Trump signed an executive order directing federal agencies to restrict hiring across the government. The move came as his earlier hiring freeze, in effect since January 20, expired.
