“Five Asian elephant calves were discovered buried on tea estates in northern West Bengal … Bruising on their backs suggested herd members had dragged their bodies over long distances to reach the tea estates for burial. In some cases, elephants traveled for 48 hours while carrying the dead calves”

Texas is subsidizing $10 billion worth of new fossil fuel plants, citing new demand caused by climate change and population growth.
But in reality, much of the new demand is coming from supercomputers for AI and crypto.
Guess where the new plants will be placed:

Perhaps the last few weeks are fitting. Biden refused to have any media improvement strategy over the past four years — no plan for helping local media, for the FCC, for taking on NYT, or stopping Musk acquisition — and now it’s that same media that’s his nemesis.

you can't persuade someone who thinks they're good to be *more* good by telling them that they're bad. What you can do, sometimes!, is tell them that they are good, and then give them more things to be good about, and more ways they can be good.

It’s Tuesday so you know what that means: call your electeds & tell them you support an investigation into the compromised SC judges and AOC’s motion to impeach them. It will take you five minutes max to make calls to both senators and your congressperson. If you can skeet, you can call or email.

This - to fight Project 2025, we need to stop talking about what they say they’ll do. We need to start talking about what it would actually *mean*. Will they deny it? Yeah, of course because the language of Project 2025 has been crafted to *sound vague to normies* but speak directly to their base.

Not to amplify another dumb comment by Jha beyond wondering if a "mask" frightened him as a child--but reminder that respirators work against a range of infectious particles (and always have) & that Cvd is still a new virus with likely longterm harm-so its not fringe to wear a respirator indoors
