If you have it please donate cash to the food banks. $10 in their hands will feed more people than the $10 worth of canned goods you can buy for retail prices. Also check on your elders. Many of them will not admit they rely on these programs so grocery gift cards or a surprise bag of staples

Please stop saying he was “protesting” as that is misinformation & plays to their narrative. Mayor Baraka & members of Congress were there LEGALLY to visit/inspect the *ILLEGAL* ICE facility that has not allowed any oversight. BTW: NJ law bans immigration detention centers.

The reason why I cry listening to these old songs isn't because I want to return to the past. It's through music that I get to bear witness to all my past selves. I can see the girl and woman I used to be. She doesn't know I'm there. I know my future self is here, right now, watching these tears.

from USFW (U.S. Fish & Wildlife) Anywhere from 200-300M birds are predicted to migrate across the U.S. each night this weekend! Lights at night can be very disorienting to birds during their long spring migration. Help prevent deadly bird collisions, turn off or dim unnecessary lights. Thank You!

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Via @maketheroadny.bsky.social: If ICE shows up, know your rights. “ICE does not have the right to enter your home without a valid warrant signed by a judge.” maketheroadny.org/we-protect-us/
IF ICE SHOWS UP, KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!
If immigration (ICE) comes to your door or stops you in the streets, you have rights!
1. DO NOT OPEN THE DOOR
ICE does not have the right to enter your home without a valid warrant signed by a judge.
POLICE ICE
?
ICE will not always identify themselves as
ICE. If there is a knock at your door and they say "Police" it could very well be ICE.
ICE will often say they are police to gain access to homes. If at any point they try to enter, or do enter, continue to say
"I DO NOT CONSENT"
If they insist they have a warrant ask them to slip it under the door.
2. REMAIN CALM
Don't run and most importantly do not lie about your name, age, immigration status, etc.
Anything you say or do can be used against you.
If ICE questions you, under the 5th Amendment, you have the right to remain silent and to not incriminate yourself.
If you are detained, ask for an immigration attorney immediately. Although immigration does not provide attorneys, once you ask for an attorney they should no longer question you.
3. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING
Ask to have documents translated. If you do not speak English ask for an interpreter.
Have an attorney look over any documents that ICE gives you.
5. MAKE A FAMILY PLAN
If you have children, identify a caretaker.
4. RECORD
If you witness someone being detained by ICE, you have the right to record as long as you do not interfere with the arrest.
Pictures, videos, and any information you can gather, can help verify an immigration raid and also help someone's immigration case.
Make sure your family is prepared if ICE arrives at your home. Have all your personal documents and finances secure.
Make sure you have at least one number memorized in case of an emergency.

Beautiful essay by climate scientist @petergleick.bsky.social on the difference between dismayed and defeated. With a list of what's still unstoppable.... time.com/7178677/clim...
The frustration my colleagues and I feel is almost palpable. We’ve been warning of these issues for so long that most of the pioneers in this field are now retired or dead. After giving more than a thousand lectures, talks, testimonies, and interviews I’m feeling old and worn.
Still, I cling to my optimism that the worst outcomes can still be avoided because I see positive signs of progress. The cost of non-carbon energy alternatives has fallen so low, it is now cheaper to shut down existing coal plants than to keep running them. In 2023, China built as much solar photovoltaics capacity as the entire world did in 2022. Clean energy is the leading form of new electricity generation in the U.S., with solar reaching record levels in 2023. In 2024, wind and solar will generate more electricity than hydropower. In early 2025, renewable electricity generation will surpass coal to become the largest source of electricity globally. Most encouraging, the growing efforts of younger generations to raise awareness and fight for action on climate, often at great personal cost, show they understand the stakes and care deeply about their future.

This is genuinely great from Gessen if only because it takes something pretty basic about anti-trans politics (it's part of a broader reproductive regime akin to the eugenics of fascist cults) and explains it to an audience still convinced this has anything to do with fairness in women's sports
