This first sentence from Katharine Hayhoe's recent post made me laugh having just read your latest substack.

'I’m increasingly convinced that self care is climate action.'

I spent the best part of an early Christmas morn reading from the memoir of @margaretatwood.bsky.social
I want it to go on forever. Thank the sweet baby Jesus it's ginormous.

Upwards in human population, gdp, extraction, exploitation, consumption, production is ultimately a downward spiral in all of these and more, so much more.

This is Kaia. She takes road safety very seriously. Encourages you to do the same. 13/10 please buckle pup (TW: lyss121 & leleleems)
a small yellow lab puppy sits like a person in the black leather passenger seat of a car. the dog is buckled in, and she's staring straight ahead with a stoic expression, while her two back feet kick up in front of her. the human in the driver's seat looks on with a slight smile.

A ground squirrel seems to enjoy tomatoes almost as much as @ok2panic.bsky.social 😂 😋
A plump ground squirrel is enjoying a couple sliced cherry tomato halves in a backyard. The squirrel is sitting up on its back feet and holding a small red tomato half in its front paws up to its mouth as it looks toward the camera.

The Endangered Species Act lets us measure our virtue even as the world empties around us.
This is an excerpt from a larger piece about what protection means….and what it fails to capture.

Mushrooms—quiet, overlooked, essential. The ESA protects the obvious. Most species disappear quietly.

Well I can see Bluesky is handling a PR crisis in their normal competent manner
I was suspended from BlueSky for defending the honor of Johnny Cash. I wish I were joking. In early October, I referenced the "I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die" lyric of "Folsom Prison Blues" in response to a terrible Wall Street Journal article saying that Johnny Cash was uncool. I quote-tweeted the article and everyone understood the reference. There was no outcry. I stand by my assessment that Johnny Cash is cool. I do not like being the subject of so much attention, especially when I cannot see the discussion. But the BlueSky admins are now claiming that I wrote a post saying, out of nowhere, "I want to shoot the author of this article just to watch him die". They are not posting a screenshot of the actual tweet, which shows that I am quote-tweeting an article about Johnny Cash, and that my post is obviously not a threat but a play on "Folsom Prison Blues." BlueSky is lying and saying I posted this line on November 10. I did not. I posted it in early October, when the WS) article came out. You can see that they are lying about the date from this page showing my last BlueSky tweets: I was not given any explanation for my suspension the first two times l inquired. Later I was told it was for the "Folsom Prison Blues" reference, and I asked for clarification but did not receive it. I thought it might be a prank until a reporter reached out this morning and confirmed it. BlueSky's behavior is bizarre and unwarranted. I have lost access to friends and all my posts and photos. I am incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support here on Substack and also on BlueSky - though I cannot see it, because I am suspended. To quote another Johnny Cash song: "I ain't never done nothin' to nobody/ I ain't never got nothin from nobody, no time/ And until I get somethin' from somebody, sometime, I don't intend to do nothin' for nobody, no time." As for BlueSky...
