The time to push back against clear bullshit is now + the way to do it is in clear, unequivocal language that doesn't mince words out of cowardice or *letting shitty tech bros convince you that your opinion on a subject is wrong*. The tech bro class is often blech. Express yourself accordingly 7/7

There are a million things to be outraged about right now (this is by design). My number one is, trans people don’t have the numbers to defend themselves from all the ways these people are trying to strip them of their humanity. Feels like a “first they came for (x) and I did not speak out” moment

Another thing re antidotes... the people you love, who you value... be in the moment with them. Not distracted, not on your phone, but fully present. Open to them. So you can see them and be seen. This feels even more important right now.
Destabilization of reality in the US is about to reach surreal heights. Protect your mind. Monitor stress levels. Do not doomscroll--it does not help. Be selective about when and how long you expose your brain to this. Do what you can when you can.

Friends, I might respectfully suggest that times of crisis where you care about the outcomes are a great time to listen to the "here is how we can effectively get things done" crowd and not the "I refuse to compromise on anything ever so I can feel smart and pure and make fun of people" crowd.

This is 67 cases--a tiny fraction of TB's global burden, which exceeds 10,000,000 active cases per year.
But the longer we allow a curable illness to infect and kill millions, the more TB we'll see in the U.S. Tuberculosis is an airborne disease, and TB anywhere is a threat to humans everywhere.

I have seen a lot of "news" stories about the current California fires as natural disasters. Southern California ecosystems are fire prone, but this event is a direct result climate change and management neglect. We need to change how we view these events, and the press is not helping.
These fires are a watershed moment, not just for residents of LA, but emblematic of a new era of complex, compound climate disaster. Conditions for a January firestorm in Los Angeles have never existed in all of known history, until they now do.

trains are such a great example of how the future is here, if we want it and are willing to subsidize it
It’s over 1,000km from Berlin to Paris
There’s now a direct daytime train between them, that takes 8 hours and costs just €59. Leave at 10am, arrive 6pm.
And… it’s just 1% the carbon emissions of the equivalent flight
