Woke up hungover from both wine and a midnight panic attack. Forced myself to go swim laps at the pool anyway and I’ll be darned if it didn’t make me feel a lot better! Gave up on the crawl and just did kickboard laps and it was v relaxing

Google’s emissions are up 48% in 5 years. Microsoft’s are up 30% since 2020. Those soaring figures are being driven by mass investments in data centers to power AI tools. Generative AI is a climate disaster and data center expansion must be stopped.

Are cherries on your #July4 menu? They come thanks to workers like Pablo who shared this pic from where he was harvesting cherries in Yakima WA. He works piece rate. This means he rushes to pick as many as possible while getting the quality growers require. #WeFeedYou

Pointing again at my US Blue State Challenge. If you live in a "blue state", pick the red state you hate the most and the issue you care about the most and find a group in that state working on that issue and support them.

Winter is my time to be depressed, to wear dark colors and mope around sadly, cold, freezing. Summer is for absurdly bright prints to remind me I’M ALIVE

I do not understand the “neutrals for summer trend”. If I wear that oatmeal-colored sack I’m gonna blend in with the beach sand and get run over by a toddler. No, what we need are summer BRIGHTS. FLORALS. NEONS!

Okay so to be clear we are destroying power grids, the livelihoods of actual humans beings, and communication/research infrastructure for the sake of an algorithm that converts stolen data into unreliable stolen data and consistently loses millions of dollars. Just to be clear

I’m sorry, I don’t know offhand! A lot of sites I used to use have shuttered and I’m still trying to find more resources 🙁

Oh excellent, thank you for the recs! I will check those out when my stash gets low. I *loved* the Airgami masks and bought one that has the best seal ever but sadly they went out of business 😭

KOSA's back in the house & senate. it's easily weaponized against marginalized people. it has major support & *will* pass without pressure. what you do at the polls isn't my business; but *now* is the time to threaten to pull votes. it's the only power non-rich people have. call scripts follow.🧵

Oh, interesting! Yeah, I tie the straps a little bit tighter and I get a good seal with them. I have a pretty small face, if that helps?

If you need to buy masks again (and I’m going to suggest that you do!) I highly recommend MaskLab.
