Remember the claim that we couldn't force a rush to renewables too soon, because it just wouldn't be fair to "developing nations" (i.e. the global majority world)? Welp, turns out they're willing and eager to get in on renewables, and are doing really, really well with them. So.

Love community canning spaces so much for connecting with neighbors, learning how to preserve food, building culture, and addressing food insecurity.

Val and I checked repeatedly because we simply couldn't believe no national or local news organizations covered this letter from 18 AGs in support of trans youth care and against FTC overreach.

If you find any stories, let us know, but it seems to be our exclusive.

On Friday 18 blue state attorneys general BLASTED the Federal Trade Commission, telling it to back off trans youth healthcare and warning of an insidious attempt to reshape the regulation of medicine in the US.

And nobody covered it.

In Reckoning's first decade, we have been lucky to publish beautiful poetry, prose, and art by neurodivergent creators. I hope they (and everyone else) understand how important they are. Our world would be dimmer without these unique voices.
