💡 @timmonsroberts.bsky.social makes 3 points at the @caadcoalition.bsky.social & @ucs.org presser #COP30:

1 Disinformation is everywhere

2 Those w/ structural power deploy disinformation to maintain status quo.

3 Solutions exist & they're urgent.

My friend @lauragarbes.bsky.social is brilliant and wrote this amazing book about race, racism, and NPR. You should read it! press.princeton.edu/books/paperb...

Question for environmental health/toxics folks!

Anyone have real data or studies they can point me to on the environmental health risks of (recycled) rubber mulch, such as that used on playgrounds, or finer ground rubber gravel on athletic fields?

My google scholar-ing has been inconclusive

spoke to @aaup.bsky.social pres Todd Wolfson about AAUP's suit against the Trump admin over campus deportations:

“They're abducting people off the streets. They're forcing Columbia to pass rules that say students can't protest wearing masks, yet when they abduct people, they're all wearing masks.”
Students Are Getting Swept Up By ICE. Here’s What Professors Are Doing About It
"We have ICE on our streets abducting people because Donald Trump or Marco Rubio don't like their speech. That's crazy."

ok, cis folks—if you said you'd stand with trans folks, it's time.

S.9 is the senate's sports ban bill—a big step to making trump’s executive order a federal law, which is much harder to undo. it can be stopped *monday.*

short call scripts for dem & GOP senators ⬇️🧵

legiscan.com/US/bill/SB9/...
a cloture vote for the way-harder-to-undo-than-an-executive-order federal anti-trans sports ban is now set for monday. that means there's more time to make calls.

no on cloture means it doesn't get a vote. the GOP needs 7 dems to advance it.

please call. there is *so* much evil downstream of this.

Hi Bluesky! Not what I thought my first post would be on here, but I’m looking for a source for this great figure! I saved it from a post not too long ago and I’d like to properly cite for my students and others. Does anyone know who/where it came from?
