A climate action advocate running on a drained battery.

I tried to convince y'all that the constant criticism of Democrats was going to put the GOP back in charge, but oh well here we are.

Supporting Democrats is a lot better than living under GOP rule.

Whether or not Israel was committing genocide last year or this year is for the courts to decide. That's just the way I am.

If you accuse Democrats of having supported a genocide, you are a lying Kremlin useful idiot imso.

You've been gaslit into believing lies like these.

“It’s cold today—so much for global warming!”

Weather is like your mood, while climate is your personality. One cold day doesn’t disprove global trends. In fact, warming can even disrupt weather patterns and cause some of the wild swings we see today!

I don’t remember having lobster when I was on the International Space Station! But I guess I never spent a Thanksgiving there either. I know it’s not easy to be away from family, so Happy Thanksgiving to everyone aboard.

I remember the atmosphere after 9/11 and the Cronulla Racial Riots in #Australia. We had several friends of Greek, Italian and #Aboriginal decent that were attacked by white strangers because they thought they were Muslims. #Racism spills out on all of us.

Climate policy and federalism in Canada don't always fit together well, but it's clear that the biggest successes have come when the two orders of government work together, with the federal government setting a minimum standard. 440megatonnes.ca/insight/bigg...

People are missing the point of this . He’s appeasing Dani for now, but this will not happen . BC won’t agree, First Nations won’t agree, there’s no private money to pay for it. He’s playing her in order to move onto better use of his time. Dani is too stupid to meet the requirements

In light of record submission rates and a large volume of AI-generated slop, SocArXiv recently implemented a policy requiring ORCIDs linked in the OSF profile of submitting authors, and narrowing our focus to social science subjects. Today we are taking two more steps:
