I admired her ability to make a strong argument - without repeating, because she was sharing refinements of her own understanding; not least that "we" are only a part of the life on this planet - that our consciousness might value life for its own sake, instead of capitalizing and commodifying it.

2025 is really the year of global decline and good people dying. I’ve lost too many this year.

Rest in peace Jane Goodall. Incredibly sad as if a family member has passed. I know she is in heaven doing awesome right now. She worked so hard. I wish her nothing but absolute peace and happiness.

every sane person: the US has way more gun deaths than every other high-income country, even when you adjust for poverty and crime simply because of the lack of gun control

Yeah, the secret reason is taxes. Trump made cuts in 2017, senate balanced it with a time bomb that went off in 2022. "Section 174" allowed software engineers to be written off as R&D headcount, where R&D was a tax write-off. Repeal that, and companies have to pay taxes for engineers.

What’s happening in Los Angeles’s ports suggests that financial markets have yet to fully price in how much Trump’s tariff war is hurting the economy, @juliettekayyem.bsky.social writes. “The stock market goes up and down. Maritime indicators keep on sinking”:
Don’t Look at Stock Markets. Look at the Ports.
A drop in maritime traffic suggests that the worst is yet to come.
