You might have missed it, but Amazon warehouse workers in Raleigh, NC are voting this week on whether to form a union.
If they win, they'll be the first unionized Amazon facility in the South.
Remember that we can always find hope in the labor movement.

I saw a video of known alcoholic Pete Hegseth drinking multiple scotches in the middle of a televised presser and started laughing so hard I began coughing as I believe we're less than 2 weeks removed from him promising never to drink a single time as Secretary of Defense and nothing matters anymore

Even worse incompetence: they accidentally fired, then apparently today un-fired, hundreds of the people who manage America's nuclear weapons.

The millions in USAID food is STILL sitting at the Port of Houston. Trump fired the watchdogs reporting on this story, he doesn’t want Americans to see this debacle. Wasting millions on food already purchased is the epitome of wealthy entitlement #Voices4Victory

I read Sagan’s “The Demon Haunted World” shortly after it came out and it’s still one of the most influential books in my life and on my thinking. 📖
It has always been relevant, and thirty years later it’s more prescient than ever.
Probably time for a re-read. 🧪

In a sentence never before uttered by humans, I am delighted to share that an alligator stole my conservation instructor’s hat by jauntily walking into the water while wearing it 🐊

The world is now installing solar power at a rate of 1 GW/day. You don't need to prospect for solar power. Which is why #FossilFuelsAreStrandedAssets. 🧪🔌💡☀️💨🔋 ourworldindata.org/data-insight...
In 2004, it took the world a year to add a gigawatt of solar power — now it takes a day
To mitigate the negative impacts of climate change, the world needs to quickly transition from fossil fuels to low-carbon energy sources such as solar power.
