@waisn.bsky.social arrives at the Capitol in #Olympia to demand that the legislature enact protections for our vulnerable community members and accountability for the enforcement officers

The growth-addled political and economic forces pushing us toward ecological doom are many and formidable indeed. That makes it ever more important that people in rich, overconsuming countries like ours come to stand up to the forces of ecocide.

The Pursuit of Endless Growth Will Only End in Destruction
If the corporate and political powers carry on with business as usual, such growth will end in chaotic, violent collapse.

By the way, don't fall for this nonsense. Trump's actions have nothing to do with the Nobel Prize whatsoever. That's a deflection strategy. The real reason is that Putin wants to destroy NATO, which Trump's actions will accomplish.

No, @nytimes.com (www.nytimes.com/2026/01/08/m...), experts do NOT agree emissions reductions aren't adequate to prevent 2C warming.

You're using a false premise (see climateactiontracker.org/press/releas...) to justify potentially dangerous interventions (which take pressure off decarbonization)

You should follow the David Graeber Institute (he wrote some good books too). And I’ve been saying this for a long time. Change does not come from above. They like to take credit for the things people win in the streets. But change does not come from above.
One thing today has shown is that ordinary people who are politically active protesting their Govt, they are far braver than any of the career politicians running the Govt.

And frankly without such brave people, we would not even have the limited rights that we do have.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.

(And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.)

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Solidarity and resistance to fascist oppression in #Seattle!
Glad to collaborate with @saarpr.bsky.social and @troublemakers.bsky.social for this action!
Protesters to Trump: ‘No National Guard in Seattle’
The president has yet to formally threaten to deploy troops to Seattle. Organizers said this protest was a show of force rather than a reaction.

Enforcement under the current regime has nothing to do with "law". It's unadulterated repression.
