Incredible.

This is a Tawny Frogmouth, an Australian bird that looks like an owl but isn't one. By day it freezes on a branch and mimics a broken tree limb so well that people walk right under it

Real headline here should be: MSM admits capitalism is killing us all.

Kudos to NBC New York for saying it without equivocation: "The US is to blame for the world falling behind in the fight against climate change."

Go see the Digger. Multi layered story telling blew me away. An absolute masterpiece that chronicles waaay too much truth about climate collapse via oil & gas, with MSM desperately trying to control narrative. Cruise /Goodman deserve Academy Awards, if not Nobels. Too complex for most Americans 🤣

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

thebetter.newsFinland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.meIn Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.” “Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath Some costs are savings.

The American Dream.

Huge corporations like Amazon, Walmart, and Uber are among the top employers of SNAP and Medicaid recipients. Meanwhile, their CEOs are raking in multi-million dollar pay packages. How is this not a bigger scandal?

Please put a plug in this weed patch.

The President promotes Scotts Miracle-Gro in the middle of an Oval Office event: The best grass you can get. Scotts, you know Scotts? Scott's Miracle-Gro, they're doing it. They do great grass. I got to give him a plug because they did the White House for free.

Heads up: Taylor Farms lettuce is sold under these brand names: Marketside (sold at Walmart) Earthbound Farm (owned by Taylor Farms) Cross Valley Farms (owned by US Foods) Private labels for Target, Whole Foods (365), and Amazon Fresh. AVOID ALL OF THEM

www.cbc.ca/news/politic... Get a life American fascist morons. This is your shit and your fossil fool corporations ignoring their own climate science to threaten habitable life on earth. Your short term profit is not worth the demise of human life on earth. You all deserve to be tried at the ICC.

cbc.ca4 Republicans in U.S. Congress accuse Canada of failing to do enough to prevent wildfires | CBC NewsRepublican members of U.S. Congress are slamming Canada's federal and provincial governments over what they claim is inaction in preventing the wildfires currently spreading smoke and poor air quality...

The greatest problem confronting us today won’t be solved while both major media and politicians are owned by the very people who own the fossil fuel corps. #climate #existentialmoments #habitableplanet

What happened when renewables were unleashed? Oil and gas demand plummeted. Prices & profits plummeted. How to fix that? Hire a corrupt AF president who does everything he can to help oil and gas corporations, including unwinnable, wars. Voila: oil & gas prices through the roof. Profits boom.

The Pakistani Prime Minister who was the intermediary for the ceasefire tweeted yesterday that it included Lebanon

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

JD Vance: "I think this comes from a legitimate misunderstanding. I think the Iranians thought the ceasefire included Lebanon, and it just didn't. We never made that promise, we never indicated that was gonna be the case."

Density is a false enemy of trees. The real problem is how much pavement we dedicate to cars. If we took only a few parking spots on each block to plant street trees, imagine how many more we'd have in the city.

Urban Truth Collective@urbantruth.bsky.social

Not density OR trees. Density AND trees. Better cities are climate action. #UrbanTruth

Oil prices wouldn't be all over the news today if more of our economy was powered by local, secure renewable energy. This isn't an "energy crisis". It's a fossil fuel crisis. 44% of UK electricity came from renewables in 2025. More of that plus an electrified economy => no more oil shocks.

Not funny that the two largest militarized industrial complexes in the world, supposed democracies rooted in freedom, are the biggest war mongers on the planet. Everything you learned growing up was a lie.

Ugh, so desperate and bleeding so much cash, #ChatGPT have exposed themselves and agreed to be fascist tools at the expense of Americans and innocent civilians all over the world. But please do tell me again about the benefits of capitalism and American ingenuity.

One of the biggest problems with America is it uneducated masses. To top it off, those who go into policing are usually from the same spectrum and given enormous authority to create harm.

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

Look an actual democracy, not just one that’s play acted on TV!! #Brazil

Meanwhile in Brazil 🇧🇷: The Attorney General's Office charged former President Jair Bolsonaro and 33 other people with attempted coup d'état in 2022. Now, it is up to the Supreme Federal Court to accept the charge and make them defendants or not.

Imagine if #Musk had used his money and influence for good, following up #Tesla by purchasing #Twitter to command vast public support for #climate action and saving humanity from climate disaster. Imagine his legacy and place in history. Imagine.
