Oh look. A President, a Governor, a Mayor - all at the crash site at the Chesapeake Bay with first responders. Not swimming. Showing empathy and leadership.
Three tweets from Clean Air Club an hour ago Is now a good time to mention that last month over 25 Los Angeles schools rejected our offers of completely free air purifiers for every single classroom on their campuses? There's a widespread hostility to anyone offering solutions at the intersection of climate change, pandemics, and resource depletion. It was wild to get replies along the lines of "don't contact us ever again" when we were literally offering tens of thousands in free gear When you try to solve a problem that most people are in denial about, you're going to encounter hostility and gaslighting instead of enthusiasm and solidarity
Goddamn.
ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change.
Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk:

PSA to my friends in California near the fires: breathing in wildfire smoke is really bad for you (even if it’s not super thick where you are) but if you have face masks (N95, KN95, etc) those can help a lot
Keith Wasserman: Does anyone have access to private firefighters to protect our home in Pacific Palisades? Need to act fast here. All neighbors houses burning. Will pay any amount. Thank you.
“Will pay any amount.”
Feels like one of those futile pleas we’re going to hear from wealthy people more and more in the era of climate change.
My message to Zuck
Reminder that the woman accusing Pete Hegseth of assaulting her is a Republican, and the incident occurred at a Republican conference. She was there with her husband. Pretty difficult set of circumstances to dismiss as a witch hunt but seems like Republicans are going to try.
We read about all of these terrible things he’s done and are appalled, Trump reads them as a letter of recommendation. This is all just so profoundly exhausting.
Gen Z MALES voted for trump.
In Hungary, a key Orbán tactic in dismantling their democracy was that his allies bought media outlets that were critical of the regime and turned them into loyal cheerleaders for the regime.
I will die on this hill. The other spelling MAKES NO SENSE.
Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.
I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:
Public service announcement: do not buy the mojito flavor thinking it will be refreshing. You will wonder if you are drinking Scope. You will still have the unfinished case in your garage 8 months later.
Jeffrey Dahmer was very good on refrigeration
Am I missing something? Yes, Jake Paul is an absolutely toxic tool. But isn’t Tyson a trump supporter and convicted rapist? Why are so many people treating him like a hero? These men both seem rancid to me.
I disappeared from The Bad Place awhile ago and only just joined BS, and this list is like finding old friends again. Thank you!
These ignorant voters will be the cause of thousands of deaths in Gaza. It’s heartbreaking.
An antivax secdef is crazy. Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of human civilization than disease.
For my first post I was torn between posting a pic from the mountains, a pic of my cats, or expressing my election anguish. Enjoy this photo of my cats while I wrestle with existential panic.
Your body, my choice.
