Seeing this just fills me with absolute despair at the climate situation. We are still at peak emissions. We haven't even begun decreasing emissions and even if we did, the warming that's baked from past emissions will last for centuries. We're cooked.

Yes, reading and literacy rates are dropping. But the fault here isn't with kids but adults and the mess we've made of our education system. We aren't supporting kids. We can keep printing op-eds whining about college students who can't read a full book, or we can fix an education system we broke.

One way to prevent climate disaster is to stop studying it and act really surprised when there are floods, fires, and crop failures. Then say: "How could anyone have known, or allocated resources for this? How sad that you are starving and exposed to extreme temperatures. We're praying for you."

i don't generally expect non-anarchists to even necessarily be aware of the state declaring us terrorists every 3 months or whatever but the autistici/invitati thing is a big deal. thousands of radical newsletters and mailing lists is a massive blow to radical & leftist communication networks

There is a concerted, multi-pronged conservative effort to destroy the WNBA just as it starts to gain national prominence and mainstream attention. They want women’s sports to exist only on the margins, in terms that they alone dictate

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

Seven years ago a representative from Google reached out to me in an official capacity to discuss the company's energy use. I told them it would become necessary for major firms in core economies to reduce energy use in order to enable Paris-compliant decarbonisation.

To our dismay, the artist and author Marjane Satrapi has passed away. As she wrote, ordinary Americans and Iranians have more in common with each other than we do with either of our governments, which have far too much in common with each other. We honor her memory and oppose the war.

NO WAR WITH IRAN!
The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West.
You are American, I am Iranian, we don’t know each other, but we talk together
& we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you
& your government is much bigger than the difference
between you & me.
And the difference between me
& my government is much bigger
than the difference
between me & you.
And our governments are very much the same...

Of $2.5 billion of fire relief funds, $0 went to fire victims. $75 million went to the military. $14 million went to pay cops to tear gas civilians who were protesting against ICE. www.nbclosangeles.com/investigatio...

Victims get little relief from Newsom's $2.5 billion fire fund
Most of California’s $2.5-billion fire relief fund is still unspent, according to records, & some money was diverted to CHP at protests.

THREAD. I received word that some liberal nonprofits and political consultants are trying to work with establishment Democrats on a political "messaging strategy" to expand surveillance, militarized policing, immigration detention, and overall imprisonment with re-branded language.

I love that people are grabbing copies of my first book The Disordered Cosmos, and I can tell because Amazon ran out of paperbacks again and I just want to remind you all that literally every other online retailer has it in stock and is more ethical :-) And your local indie can get it!

The Disordered Cosmos
From a star theoretical physicist, a journey into the world of particle physics and the cosmos—and a call for a more liberatory practice of science.

This is the money paragraph for me.
What if we got away from the argument that doing cosmology and particle physics is practical or materially valuable? Then we have to accept that we're like the poets.
What we do is important culturally in the same way poetry is. A piece of this book is me saying there is value in banding with the poets, and fighting for the value of being curious and trying to articulate the world with whatever tools are available to us. Not for the purposes of selling something, but for the purpose of fulfilling our humanity.

People trapped within capitalism do this because discomfort and boredom can lead to self-reflection and that's a condition that will bring up feelings and realizations they are wildly unsupported and unprepared for. This is the core problem we're facing. I actually made a video about it recently

Humans are all born prosocial creatures, it's how we're wired to survive. We are primates who live in groups because we die if we're on our own. We are literally not biologically equipped for individualism:

Men are not trash.
Perpetuating the narrative that “men are bad” helps normalize rape culture by making it seem like it’s just inherent to their nature. It’s not.

I'd suggest that the lesson we should take is that if the bailiff refused to enforce it, if the cops didn't exist, and if we had no state and no banking system, nobody would be homeless. But I am just a simple goose. Honk.
