While his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse — gleefully. Read more: www.theverge.com/tech/949259/...

In 2022, a 4-month-old Bar-tailed Gotwit who hatched in Alaska set the record for longest known sustained avian flight. Fitted with a 2-oz satellite transmitter, the bird flew south across the Pacific and landed on Tasmania, traveling 8,321 miles in 264 hours (11 days).
In 2022, a young godwit code-named “B6” that hatched in western Alaska set the record for longest known sustained avian flight. After being fitted with a two-ounce satellite transmitter, the young bird was tracked flying south across the Pacific, finally veering sharply westward to land safely on Tasmania. This bird traveled 8,321 miles over 264 hours of flight — that’s 11 days, without touching down on water or land, without anything to eat or drink.

The fact that Americans quite painfully pay for tariffs, and the president so plainly claims they don’t should be enough to remove him from office? NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION. Where’s your Boston Tea Party

one of the most frustrating things about there being “no jobs” is that we all walk around and see the work that needs to be done. our cities are crumbling, our people need help, our world is dying. there’s so much work to be done, if only it were good for the balance sheet

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

It's been extremely warm (again) over global land areas so far this year. Here's a comparison against every other average January-August period since at least 1850... Data from NOAAGlobalTempv6.0.0: www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/lan...
Line graph time series of global land mean surface temperature anomalies for each January-August period from 1850 through 2025. There is a long-term increasing trend and large year-to-year variability. The mean surface temperature anomaly averaged for January-August 2025 was 1.78°C for global land areas. Anomalies are computed relative to a 1901-2000 climate baseline. Data from NOAA/NESDIS/NCEI NOAAGlobalTemp v6.0.0.

The “Debate Me Bro” Grift: How Trolls Weaponized The Marketplace Of Ideas
Among the attempts to create hagiographic eulogies of Charlie Kirk, I’ve seen more than a few people suggest that Kirk should be respected for being willing to talk to “those who disagree with him” as a sign that he was engaging in good faith. Perhaps the perfect example of this is Ezra Klein’s silly eulogy claiming that Kirk was “

Problem is that after a few years, most people normalize extreme climate as normal They also normalize disappearance of world Bees insects birds wildlife, marine life, forests wetlands and their replacement with a sterile barren lifeless landscape as normal

Once again, Zelenskyy shows us that he’s the most capable European leader by not playing by Trumps rules (kissing the ring). Trump must be treated like a Putin ally by Europe. You cannot win an argument with Trump, only ignore him. Europe must stand on its own.

This study about our behavioral crisis is a game changer. The climate crisis obv isn’t our personal fault, we’re pushed by the market to consume and policies don’t address this root problem. We should rally against this and help ourselves to a sustainable culture. Let’s not blame, but inspire change
