New Yorkers, if you don’t see your Councilmember on the sponsor list for this bill, ask them to support online reporting, faster clearing of snowy bus stops. Winter is just around the corner, and I can’t hop those bergs! TY @cmshahanahanif.bsky.social. legistar.council.nyc.gov/LegislationD...

That’s good, but it seems low given how many people their nasty air probably reached/impacted.

Please take a moment out of your weekend to watch this #climateweekNYC reel where we let Trump’s Energy Secretary know how we really feel about him and his policies! Help spread the love. @jigarshahdc.bsky.social @iea.org @heatmap.news @politico.com @bloomberg.com

(2/2) And they still to this day adamantly refuse to even issue an institutional apology. What would that cost them? Nothing. And it would pull many victimized alumnae back into the college’s orbit. Because they all refuse to accept any accountability, we still find young women being assaulted.

This has been going on for All Time. Colleges and Universities have politely asked rapists to mildly atone. (Very rarely this includes expulsion.) That is the end of the story even though what they did is a crime that should be prosecuted. It was even true at my Seven Sisters college, Vassar. (1/2)

“…if the last two years have confirmed anything, it’s that the logic of collective resistance is sound. Not only is the immediate price for bucking Trump small; it actually works.” More please, from institutions, business leaders, and of course voters!

Saw some pretty sultry shots of tonight’s NYC sunset, but I liked the mood once it settled down a bit.

Okay, hi, do you think everyone in prison is guilty? I have some news that might come as a shock to you and your very certain worldview. Also, dehumanize much?

Surprising. People serve prison terms many, many-fold longer without self harm.

Just went to a three hour panel on extreme heat tech, and not once did anyone mention anything about stopping the harm, only how much money is to be made. How sick is that?!? #climateweekNYC

No thank you, entirely uninterested in what Michael Mann has to say ever since he threw under the bus other scientists braver than him by undertaking protest.

Disappointed that @mikiesherrill.bsky.social, Al Gore, @chrislhayes.bsky.social, others I admire are willing to share a platform with utmost Fascist villain Christ Wright, Energy Secretary. If he’s invited, your rsvp should be Regrets. #nycclimateweek

Only a small number of my followers will understand the extreme restraint I showed tonight by not confronting Steve Cuozzo about his deadly bike lane obstructionism. Only out of respect for Florence Fabricant who he was (lamely) interviewing did I stay mum. Got in good death dagger stares though.

This is one of the biggest misfires of @nyc-dot.bsky.social co-named streets program. West 63rd is one of the least Sesame Street-esque blocks in NYC even if it is where their offices are.

Disgusting dehumanizing and intentional medical neglect, exactly what I experienced in a federal prison for non-violent women. Festering wounds untreated. Severe heatstroke untreated. Asthma untreated. Epilepsy untreated. Reproductive organs intentionally butchered. It’s all by design, on purpose.

Very disappointed to attend a #climateweek Climate Film Festival film that platformed sponsor Sony Pictures to brag that they would meet Scope 3 targets by 2050. For most companies, that’s 70-90% of their emissions and that is far too late.

Having experienced the intentional medical neglect of federal prison facilities firsthand, it’s definitely not somewhere you want to be with a gunshot wound.
