Today is pub day for *THE LANGUAGE OF CLIMATE POLITICS*!

MIT philosopher Kieran Setiya says: "If you want to understand the climate crisis and you only have time to read one book, this should be it."

If you live in N. America, food you eat is probably grown in the orange “major heat risk” strip in California's Central Valley. The heat threatens crops, farmworkers & our entire food system. This is our planet at 1.2 degrees of warming yet California is STILL approving new oil wells. #ClimateSky 🔌💡

worst way this could go is people convince themselves with increasing hysteria that Biden Needs To Go, he refuses, there is no way to force him out, and so the entire political spectrum and the MSM repeat the Trump campaign's core message nonstop for the next 4 months. I expect this to happen

No no no that is WAY too fast!! Your body will be clearing Covid and repairing damage for weeks after infection; rest hard for at least three weeks and then go for 50% intensity every other day for two weeks and see if it tires you. Go from there. Stay away from your edge for 3 months and SLEEP...

Still marveling at Gorsuch's Ohio v. EPA opinion, in which he confused nitrogen oxide (a pollutant) with nitrous oxide (laughing gas). He did this five times, never once getting it right—in an opinion overruling the EPA's own expert scientific analysis! s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24...

Well, look, it's parliamentary system not a manichean conflict. In any case, the center doesn't deserve the credit for stopping the far Right here, especially because its policies helped create the destabilizing discontent in the first place.

Or maybe you like neoliberalism, who knows. But it remains the case that the left / Green block gave the center something with which to ally itself. It wasn't able to preserve freedoms on its own two legs. Actually.

Right. Both the right and the left are opposed to neoliberalism. Actually. Which next world would you like to live in?

To be clear: a coalition of the Left — the socialists — and the Greens were able to block the far Right in France. And there is a lesson here for the US: voters across the West want the neoliberal experiment to end. We CAN and we MUST end it to save the future & improve people's wellbeing to boot!

Democrats need to stop talking about saving "democracy." They need to start talking about saving "freedom." That's what at stake here — Project 2025 *is* an anti-freedom agenda — and "freedom" is the political concept that most resonates with the majority of Americans.

genuinely hopeful sign that every big name GOP garbage monster is frantically trying to distance themselves from Project Say The Quiet Part Loud In an Easily-Digestible Bullet Point Format About Which There Can Be No Confusion. this means we should all absolutely continue never shutting up about it
