Welcome to bluesky regardless of whether you choose to stay following or not.

427 ppm today.
The second year of my teaching (1989-90) It was 330 ppm.
I would not have believed a 30% increase over my teaching if you had told me then.

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".

Face The Nation start having their first segment be a MAGA mouthpiece
before moving on to more legitimate interviews with people of conscience
(at least "for politicians")?

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.
See the problem?

Don't tell me that Louis CK was never funny.
Louis CK was absolutely funny before his controversy and it's remarkable that after being backed into a corner, he went all in on unfunny racist and transphobic jokes.
It's FASCINATING how he stopped being funny overnight.

I wonder whose drug imports he's helping by messing with Venezuelans and the Mexican border. I'm naive enough to not know the answer, but not blind enough to not know better than to wonder... what's in it for him?!?!?
So, US either sunk a boat of Venezuelan drug dealers, which is illegal, or they sunk a boat of immigrants, which is illegal, or, according to Venuzela, they didn't sink anything and it's an AI generated video, which is nuts. So it seems like it would be a bigger news story, no?

When an ICE agent fired the tear gas canister, it hit 55-year-old nurse Vincent Hawkins in the face, shattering his glasses and concussing him.
As he was rushed to the emergency room, he wondered if he'd ever see through his left eye again.

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.
