Revolutions are emotional migrations.

To turn toward a more humane world, we need time to grieve the old ways of being.

It’s okay to slow down and grieve. It is human to feel.

This piece calls for activists to reorient from burnout to befriending ourselves, our neighbors, this moment.

While Mike Johnson fear mongers, I'll be out on the streets with brave Americans marching, dancing, singing, laughing, and having fun at tomorrow's No Kings peaceful protests.

Will you be there? #NoKings

Just remember when they make false claims that #NoKings hates America - it's because they think THEY represent America.

Demographically, that's 100% false.

In 2016, John Cena teamed up with Love Has No Labels for their We Are America​ campaign. 👇🏼

I'm sure the stats are even more diverse today. ✊🏼🇺🇸

Loneliness isn’t a personal failure.

One in five people in the United States feels lonely “a lot of the day” every day. 30% feel lonely at least once a week for the past year.

Loneliness is structural. Thoughts and an offering that’s helped me keep walking.

New paper! PhD student Mia Tuccillo has uncovered another big impact of past warming in Greenland: lakes lost oxygen for thousands of years and cyanobacteria took over 🦠 🧪 🦠. It's kinda yikes...

The MAGA base is full of emotionally stunted macho men who have built an identity out of toughness & physical strength.

In other words: they don't solve problems with therapy. They solve problems physically.

The more Trump harms America, the more violence he will create FROM HIS OWN BASE. 🧵👇🏼

As climate changes, the range of plausible weather events shifts. But our built environment is predicated on the particular envelope of weather that we experienced historically. The problem? That envelope is shifting faster than our society is in response.
In a warming climate, increasing weather extremes threaten global infrastructure
Most (though not all) types of extreme weather--especially severe heatwaves, torrential downpours, and the most extreme droughts and wildfires--are already increasing in frequency and intensity in a warming world. This presents a fundamental challenge for modern societies that depend on complex infr

Indeed. Earlier this summer, the White House did this to me, as a scientific expert source in media, and issued a formal statement regarding my personal campaign contribution history in an attempt to discredit my commentary on wildfire, climate, and federal policy. Yet more alarm bells ringing...
I had this exact same experience this morning. Same reporter as Heidi.

This is *not* normal.

I have spoken to the press on these issues for two decades. No government official has ever demanded to know my identity in order to give a comment on a story.

A union that represents university professors published a guide tailored to help its members navigate social media during the “current climate.”

The advice? Lock down your social media accounts, expect anything you post will be screenshotted.

You’re absolutely right.

You can’t “find your tribe” without discussing the tribe culture, politics, economics.

We can’t just be having these conversations in online echo chambers. Friction is necessary.
A danger of parasocial relationships with AI is "now you're interacting with something that is designed to not challenge you," the CEO of Partiful, Shreya Murthy, says.

"In-person relationships are supposed to actually have a little friction. That's how we build bonds." #TAF25
