Every time this goes around I’m stunned that there are still people who’ve never seen it, this performance is to drag what the Mona Lisa is to paintings, but maybe you’ve never seen the Mona Lisa, so today is the day you shall behold it

RIP Bonnie Tyler. And RIP Tandi Iman Dupree. This remains the best stage entrance by a drag queen of all time, even some 25 years later, and the best use of Tyler’s “Holding Out for a Hero” ever. youtu.be/IHQA5vqn6rw?...

This week marks five years since the 2021 B.C. heat dome that killed more than 619 people. This devastating tragedy was the deadliest weather event in Canadian history. And we know the cause: fossil-fueled climate change. 🧵 #GreenSky

Orange background with gradient effect. “IT HAS BEEN 5 YEARS SINCE THE 2021 DEADLY BC HEAT DOME” “Fossil fuel-driven climate change worsened this extreme event and will bring more in the future” Arrow icon in bottom right corner. Yellow background. “This week marks the 5th anniversary of the 2021 BC heat dome that killed more than 619 people, making it the deadliest weather event in Canadian history. The heat dome also cost $6 billion in human life lost and $12 million in hospital care. On June 29, 2021, Lytton, BC suffered the hottest temperature ever recorded in Canada: 49.6°C. The next day, Lytton burned in a devastating wildfire that killed two people and destroyed 90% of the village's buildings, as well as 45 homes and structures in nearby Lytton First Nation communities.” Yellow background. “ROLE OF CLIMATE CHANGE” “According to scientists with World Weather Attribution, the deadly heat dome would have been virtually impossible without human-induced climate change.” “150X - Climate change made the summer 2021 heatwave in British Columbia 150 times more likely, according to another study.” “2X - Extreme heat events like this may intensify twice as much as previously projected due to climate change, according to a 2025 study.” “15% - Upwards of 15% of deaths during the heat dome can be directly attributed to climate change, according to a 2025 study.” “31% - If the same event were to happen again, experts predict the number of fatalities directly attributed to climate change would be much higher at upwards of 31%.” Yellow background. “ROLE OF FOSSIL FUEL COMPANIES” “The science is clear: emissions from individual fossil fuel companies — including at least seven based in Canada - enabled the 2021 heat dome. These Canadian companies include ARC Resources, Canadian Natural Resources, Cenovus Energy and Suncor Energy. To protect our communities, scientists overwhelmingly say countries like Canada must urgently phase out the burning of fossil fuels. But right now, the Canadian government is doing the opposite - by signing a deal with Alberta for a new pipeline, rolling back climate policy, fast-tracking fossil fuel projects, slashing environmental protections, and subsidizing the oil and gas industry.”

Fast-tracking more oil tanker traffic while removing key legal protections for at-risk species could also be the death knell for Southern Resident Killer Whales. Enough with the "grand bargains". Some things are too important to sacrifice.

I’m very excited for this! On a summer evening in 1972, a pivotal generation of Harlem Renaissance legends gathered at Duke Ellington’s townhouse. The trailer for “Once Upon a Time in Harlem” is out:
