Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

The planet is dying. I know the fight against fascism feels so acute, but there will be nothing left to fight for if we don't bring these longer term challenges. Please - will you support our climate litigation?
We’re working with @glanlaw.bsky.social and our claimants SOS UK, @tippingpointuk.bsky.social and Save Hemsby Coastline to challenge the UK government.

Starmer’s climate framework is so full of holes that it breaches our right to family life. Support our challenge here:

The government is failing to tackle global heating – so we’re forcing it to take action

I've finally got around to curating a selection of films about the #climate crisis 🎥

There's lot of mediocre climate films out there, but for me these stand out head & shoulders above the rest 🎞️

They make excellent resources for classrooms, lecture halls, or community cinema's 🎬

On the 15th May we will be releasing our new climate film "System Update". It takes a deep dive into why the changes we need haven’t happened & shines a light on the real solutions already within our reach.

Earnest post for once.

Yes things are bad - and getting worse in many ways.

But even now, the illiberals are not getting all their own way. Things are being contested and opposed.

And if the illiberals are ultimately to be defeated this how things start turning against them.

If you can, hold on.

Always wondered how the Star Wars Emperor could start with a battle-hardened army and end up with an "entire legion of his best troops" being beaten to death by teddybears with sticks.

Then Hegseth ended up as US Defence Sec. And now yeah that makes sense.

There is so much to say on civil service/gov workers like Gregg. People work jobs like this for less money because they care, they love it, it matters, but part of the equation of lower pay etc is the job security, that's gone, it's not coming back any time soon, so getting incredible people like...
Gregg is a former Marine and Forest Service ranger. He's saved the lives of hikers dangling off a cliff or going through cardiac arrest, and he's bravely fought forest fires to save small rural towns.

100% of his salary is paid by WA state.

Elon fired him. Share his story.

Anybody who says “this is a crisis and so this will be the outcome” does not know the meaning of a crisis.

All sorts of things can happen: some of which may not be to the liking to Trump/Musk; some not to the liking of any sane person; or even nothing dramatic at all - just a silent slow implosion.

You may be looking to pundits to tell you where all this is going.

Well, I have not a clue, other than US is nearing a constitutional crisis.

And if so: nobody can know what will happen next.

For that is the nature of any genuine crisis: it is a situation the outcome of which cannot be foreseen.

The surprise to which someone can find humans getting along with other humans, when people have said such evils of them. A needed reminder that people lie of such evils, that we all want peace, not to fight, and to be friends. youtu.be/ZQgR1h2Rogg?...

I really really really really like this. I could go on about why. but all I really want to say is that I really really really like this, and want to share it.
A memory of my father - the use of words such as tramp is specific to how my dad would have said this and when he said this it was not derogatory at all
