The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment fury at a rigged economic system. To counter Trump’s culture wars and fake populism, progressives must mount a real battle against economic elites who have rigged the game — and shafted millions of working class people.

Yup!! 🎯 Greed, hyper-individualism, and lust for power need to be rooted out of American culture and replaced with community-values, connection, compassion, and cooperation. The wonderful thing is that many people are waking up to that fact and doing something about it #solarpunk #resist

🌱 "I used to think the top environmental problems were biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse and climate change. But I was wrong. The top environmental problems are selfishness, greed and apathy... and to deal with those we need a spiritual and cultural transformation." —Gus Speth

“I have found the image of a spiral really useful, in terms of how to make sense of the fact that our era is both familiar and different,” Klein says. “The thing about a spiral is that you’re going round, but you’re not going to the same place.” #climatechange www.theguardian.com/books/2026/s...

Me after two days home alone with my hyperactive 4yo bc of Labor Day and then him not feeling well enough for daycare (but well enough to jump on the couch it turns out). There was also a poop in the tub situation and him throwing things while shouting, “SCIENCE!” 😂😭 #momsky

access to power is a HUGE climate mitigation that everyone needs to be thinking about (and not just individually, think about backup power at the community level) susankayequinn.com/2024/11/back...

While Gary, Indiana, was left in the dark for weeks, so was Hawaii after Tropical Storm Lala. I didn't see this pop up even once on my TL, but 250,000 household lost power. Today some people have been without power since August 17.

Hold up hold up hold up — a SAPPHIC sci-fi novel by solarpunk author Becky Chambers about a freaking botanist who falls in love with a starship pilot??? Did she pull this novel directly from my fantasies?? 🤣🤣 CANNOT WAIT #reading #booksky #solarpunk #botany #scifi #sapphic #lesbian

Is the grim reaper confused or something??? He’s getting all the wrong people 😭 #whenisitgonnahappen #gloriasteinem #rip

As someone who’s a bit artsy but also sciencey, I fluctuate between each state. When in a more practical state, my doodles have more straight/broken lines. When I’m more “holistic/dreamy”, I doodle swirls. So my sister has started asking me if I’m having a “lines day” or a “swirls day” #art #science

For the people in the back, a green card grants *legal* permanent residence. Use of concentration camps is a sign of fascism.

We need this to be front and center for everyone with any platform or power. This and the torture and trafficking of people from babies to seniors is what any "opposition" leader ought to be denouncing at every instance.

Omg I just found my first “schematic” in my old journal from like 3rd grade 😂 She was a little confused but she’s got the spirit lmao. I also remember designing a car that released bubbles to “clean the air” (bc soap cleans, love kid logic lol) #environmentalengineering #engineering #maker

Any other makers have beef with a certain material?? For me it’s concrete — trying to attach foam to it in my basement so my wild child can go nuts in there, but nothing sticks to concrete! Have a single brand of construction adhesive that works, but securing it while it dries is a headache #makers

The thing about the ICE abductions is: it’s not even the case these people are undocumented. A huge percentage are trying or have legally immigrated. I don’t think people understand that.

Wisconsin Republicans haven't bothered to raise the minimum wage since 2009. A min wage worker has to work 112 hours a week to afford a 1-bed apartment. Vote Crowley for WI governor in November. Reject Tiffany and his pro-billionaire policies.

A Better Wisconsin Together@abetterwis.bsky.social · 3w ago

A person working full-time on minimum wage cannot afford a two-bedroom apartment in any county in the US. Wisconsinites deserve real solutions, but Congressman Tom Tiffany skipped every vote on a critical bipartisan bill to lower housing costs.
