I’m a Pisces and believe in cod. 🐟 Racism is a thought disorder. Being white is not an achievement. I’m an epidemiologist and childfree by choice. Christian nationalists can f*ck all the way off.
Democrats endorsing the Democratic nominee as soon as they're nominated is good and more Democrats should do it more often. (Not that my "endorsement" matters, but AES absolutely has it and we should do everything we can to ensure he keeps Michigan's Senate seat in D hands this November).
Body isn't even cold yet
When generals start emailing the ranks…begging for “creative and unconventional” ideas, you’ve moved past confidence …and into desperation. That’s not the sound of a winning strategy. It’s the sound of leaders…searching for an exit.
Big money spent $70 million to try and defeat Abdul El-Sayed and it didn't work! POWER TO THE PEOPLE!
Abdul El-Sayed has won, NBC News says. And there are other wins for the left in Michigan: —William Lawrence wins his U.S. House primary. —A DSA-backed candidate is leading a Democratic incumbent for state House. —Abbas Alawieh, co-founder of Uncommitted, leads for state Senate.
For many years, this hawthorn grew alone in an open landscape. Now a young species-rich rainforest ecosystem is building all around. Nature loss isn't inevitable: it *can* be reversed, through rewilding.

My column on how capital becomes a death cult. Faced with a choice between profit and human life, the radical right chooses profit. Then it tries to persuade us that mass death is what we want. It's the new phase of climate denial: accept your fate, earthlings. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Murderous heat, an endangered food supply, decimated landscapes: embrace the Mediterranean life | George Monbiot
As climate disaster stares us in the face, the radical right says ‘Embrace the Mediterranean life’. Embrace death, more like it, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

LOL. Abdul El-Sayed WON the Democratic Primary in Michigan despite being outspent 10-1! Amazing gaslighting here.
Progressives didn’t get the big election night they wanted
Well that was a dramatic sunrise from Glastonbury Tor! More photos to follow later as it went from a very dark inky blue with flashes of red appearing in the clouds to this beautiful golden sunrise. Put it this way, I had to move quickly to capture it all 😂
Russia just used a cluster bomb in Kyiv Cluster bombs used against civilians is a war crime This has to end Putin has to be “put away” People can only take so much and there is absolutely no reason for this other than Russia are blood thirsty criminals
What a jerk… $5M to gold plate beautiful bronze statues! He funneled all the money from our National Parks… estimated at up to $90M for all his projects & the excessive fireworks. Meanwhile there’s no money to help families with healthcare & kids cut off from SNAP are hungry! #Blues
AIPAC helped Stevens lose. Remarkable shift in American politics. Wow.
Once again. It's simple! The only reason that the Epstein files have not been published is that they incriminate the president of the United States, and those others who are in a position to stop them from being released.
1/ 🧵 The most expensive Dem. Senate primary in US history just ended. El-Sayed won anyway, outspent 11 to 1. The billionaires who lost tonight aren’t done. They’re about to switch sides & fund Mike Rogers instead. Here’s the playbook they’re about to run. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy
