I’m quite the bleeding heart lefty. I like science. Umm, I loathe the LNP & am often disappointed by Labor.
I left the Twattersphere because I like discussion not argument.
Oh, I own a sailing boat, which is why I teeter on the razor’s edge of bankruptcy

King Charles: Stop Profiting At Britain’s Expense!
Energy bills are soaring, and the King is getting rich at our expense. Sign the petition to demand the Crown Estate lower fees on seabeds and make wind farms more affordable to build.

Severe weather risk in the Rocky Mountain region. In December! Nothing to see here, and by the way, let's shut down NCAR while we're at it.

I assume Trump plans to declare war against Venezuela tonight.
All this to hide from the Epstein Files, and to expand his business interests in another country to gain access to oil.
It's not about the drug cartels.

As I understand today's discussion, we can stop an ISIS cell by policing the speaker list at writer's festivals and the BA syllabus at Unis. And by "stopping demonstrations." This is madness.

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇
