“In recent weeks, sanctuary people in Ohio have accompanied Haitians as they face the uncertainty of what is to come. With some people afraid to leave their homes, advocates and volunteers are raising money, collecting food and toiletries, and doing shopping for Haitian families.”

This is a bad piece. 1. It uncritically makes use of prosecution materials to piece together what activists thought and did 2. It whitewashes resistance in Minn, Chicago, and elsewhere 3. It betrays ignorance of movement history, from abolitionism through the panthers through M4BL

"Their actions ensured that they struggled to achieve sympathetic media coverage outside of a few left-wing outlets, struggled to attract material or legal support (the ACLU, for instance, refused to touch the case), and failed to achieve positive virality in the larger culture."

Canada's fires were started by a combo of lightning strikes, human activity + extreme and long-lasting heat, which created bone-dry vegetation that can act as fuel for fires. Throw in some trapped hot air, more storms, whipped-up winds, and voila: climate change-induced wildfires.

Climate change has dried out Canada’s forests so dramatically over the past decade, Gray said, that once an arboreal fire starts, it creates its own weather system and generates lightning within it. Fire crews can’t even get close to the source of these fires b/c they’re too hot. Terrifying stuff.

I am so anxious with the number of missed messages from Discord that I'm just staying away from the app for now. Sorry to my friends in my phone! I still like you :( Server friends, 2 of you have my number, and u can share that with the others in the server, if they want to text.

We can make a society that exists for the care and thriving and enjoyment of the actual people rather than for the enrichment of parasitical greed freaks and the comfort of creepy-minded religious bigots. All that's needed is for more people to stop fearing good things and start fighting for them.

People do not get that! Homelessness is a serious issue of disability justice because so many people become homeless because of their disabilities & so many people become disabled from the brutality of being homeless. Care about disability? Then you better care about homelessness!

And let's not forget: if food production isn't sanitary it likely also isn't safe for human beings doing the labor. I know I sound like an old hippie but agribusinesses are bad, this is why there was a whole movement to buy local/small. But it's regulation we've barely ever had that is most needed.

Taylor Farms has had food safety problems before. Now it’s linked to another outbreak.

The produce supplier has been connected to E. coli in onions and an earlier cyclosporiasis outbreak in salad mix.

An alternative frame is that taco bell - a corporation we have no reason to trust - did a better job monitoring the food system than the CDC, which stopped monitoring cyclospora altogether and Taylor Farms, the agribusiness we have likely all at some point consumed food from.

Let's do some Canadian pipeline-wildfire math. The Canadian Energy Center says growing oil exports by 1.5M barrels/day **could** boost GDP by ~31B annually. Meanwhile, wildfire smoke health costs alone - just the health costs, nothing else - averaged 23B/year, past tense. And they're growing fast.
