** The views expressed are the author's.
To fix the climate, simply empower Indigenous people (commentary)

Grateful to spend two days on the Klamath watching chinook, liberated by dam removal, return to streams from which they’d been precluded since the Titanic sank. Fish are everywhere, in numbers that stagger the mind & locations that biologists figured would take years to repopulate. Too beautiful.

When u look at Mamdanis actual proposals, theres nothing there thats particularly radical. Some more of a heavier lift than others maybe (free busses for ex) but nothing radical. So seeing the increasingly unhinged reactions to him makes it clear the real issue is "a brown muslim guy will be mayor"

your analysis of this political moment is going to fail if you keep using reductionist labels like "wine mom". first of all, there are dozens of factions just within that one term, from whiskey women to chardonnay chicas, and understanding their unique informal coalitions can take decades of study

This is good reporting on the disaster in Alaska if you're looking for a reliable summary.

This is a bigger disaster than I think most are realizing. 1500 people have been displaced by the flooding with an exceptionally complicated response and recovery.
