We don't have a "climate problem." We have a greed problem. The planet isn't dying. It's being killed. And the killers have names, logos, and boardrooms. #ClimateJustice #StopEcocide

Susan Collins "does what Trump needs her to do to enact his agenda, and sometimes casts a protest vote—but only if she can prearrange it to be meaningless. She is a snake disguised as a muppet."

The planet isn't "dying" of natural causes. Forests don't just disappear. They are logged. Oceans don't just choke. They are polluted. Rivers don't just dry up. They are diverted. This is not a tragedy. It's ecocide. And ecocide should be a crime. #StopEcocide

I loved football, but about a decade ago, I quit. The CTE was too much…as were the toxic masculinity, performative patriotism, and parasitic capitalism. It was legitimately hard to quit. I had been indoctrinated my whole life. But I would never go back. www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/s...

The feminist movement was never a threat to men. Secure men have always understood that. They stood beside women, fought for equality, and some proudly called themselves feminists too. If women having equal power feels like oppression to you, feminism isn’t the problem.
