Hey Bsky fam! A lot of folks talking about #climatechange and the devastating #wildfires in California.

The entertainment sector 🎬particularly important in LA, is a driver for change.

True. there are many places where this could be implemented. Snowfall needs to be mitigated with certain instillation considerations. the typical jurisdictions that have more cloud cover etc, tend to have healthy hydro power grids, but areas with less rain & more sun, namely Ab are well suited!

Teen Vogue was one of the good media voices out there.

This is quite sad. I thought Teen Vogue was often the only bright spot in a sea of dismal media. 😢

Oh. Well I’m a pink haired, WFH dog and kid mom, who loves a good pantsuit, and is into both diversity and climate change activism. Some have called me a hipster, but I’m probably not cool enough for that. Where do I sign up for the trust fund? ✍️

Sharon @sharonk.bsky.social · 3d

it's utterly wild how the Heritage Foundation president talks about other people

if you found a guy talking like this outside, you'd probably call the cops

But here’s the most uncomfortable truth of all: the parasites that have taken over so much of our country—pantsuited girlboss advertising executives, Skittle-haired they/them activists, soy-faced pajama-clad work-from-home HR apparatchiks, Adderall-addicted dog mom diversity consultants, nasally voiced Ivy League regulatory lawyers, obese George Soros–funded police abolitionist district attorneys, hipster trust fund socialists—are some of the least impressive people in the history of the world. The Uniparty would never have achieved what it has in this country without a great degree of rottenness, of decadence, of torpor, of complacency already

“Lukaszuk is hoping the government chooses to adopt it as policy and avoids a province-wide vote.

Going straight to a referendum would be the nuclear option. He wants the government to save the province from a “divisive, prolonged referendum campaign.”

Half a country’s population that is 330 million at that, which amounts to about 24k / person.

On the billionaire side it’s about sixteen billion five hundred million / person

Hmmm something seems off 🤔

Everyone grieves differently, but when I lost my partner when I was 29, I was still in a daze 5 weeks later, and mostly unable to make meals and remember to shower. My mom stayed with me at that time and it wasn’t until years later, that I realized how long she stayed with me.

How about instead of a 360k juke box, donate a three year returning donation to my non profit that accelerates sustainable development through arts, culture and entertainment?

It will be interesting to see how overriding charter rights, forcing a rejected labour deal on workers, and threatening substantial fines will impact Alberta's plan to add and recruit 3,000 new teachers over the next 3 years.
