Ask yourself: who is actually being heard in ocean conservation? Are they the voices of people who’ve stewarded the ocean for millennia? Too often, no. In @dialogueearth.bsky.social, @taotaotasi.bsky.social notes a hard truth: Indigenous leaders are often invited to speak—but not to decide. 🌊
I have evolved into my final form: UN Sustainable Development Goal Jesus. Amen.

shout out to my coauthors @taotaotasi.bsky.social and @kayeeendra.bsky.social Also a huge shot out to our editorial, digital & campaign teams at CAP that help us take our work to the next level!
It's unpatriotic for the Trump administration to intentionally censor and rewrite Black history on National Park Service sites. Black history is American history.
Thanks @deepseaconserve.bsky.social for linking my essay in this month's news round up

Trump opens his #SOTU address by noting we are about to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday.
Sadly, he is governing the nation as a king, abusing the rule of law and destroying democracy.

In the immortal words of George W Bush:
That was some weird shit
Imagine if it was Obama giving this inspiring historical reflection -- instead of the guy who sounds like a three year old pooping his pants
I'm a fair guy
I'm not against everything Trump does:
--We can keep our shoes on at TSA now
It's a short list
I liked seeing the two WW2 vets recognized
I'm bored
The filibuster to delay the release of the Trump-Epstein files is about to enter its third hour
You know who else has murdered innocent protestors?
90 minutes in and still no facts
Trump put the National Guard onto the streets of DC after DOGE staffer Big Balls got beat up by a teenage girl -- putting them on streets they had no business or no training to police
Right after saying murders in DC are down 100% (which would be ZERO if you can't math) -- Trump talks about the National Guard member murdered in DC
Does Trump know he has 34 felonies?
I thought DOGE was the War on Fraud?
We are just going to pretend like that didn't happen?
"The government is kidnapping your kids and changing their gender" is the" they're eating the cats and the dogs" of 2026
This speech is very long and very boring
Maybe we should require identification and proof of citizenship for purchasing a gun
Trump's attacks on immigrants and refugees is an erasure of the history of this country
His mother and his wife are immigrants
Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
Trump is reminding the American people to blame immigrants and poor people for everything so that we don't pay attention to all his failures
34 felonies for election fraud
Trump is just going to lower costs for prescriptions, electricity, and housing -- but zero details on how he plans to do any of that
50 minutes in and Trump is finally calling on Congress to pass a law -- the traditional reason this speech exists in the first place
Once more for the people in back:
Tariffs are a tax paid by American consumers
Trump giving precious minutes to a Hockey Team is damning evidence that this administration had nothing to be proud of and needs to distract the American people from all his many failures
