Dear followers, fellow-travelers and #AltGov / #AltFam posse, you are glorious, you are world saving and it has been an honor and a relief riding with y'all. But my cancer has been more aggro than expected, and Mars will need to step down soon.

In all seriousness, I’m afraid we are going to see a bloodbath today/this week. The potential is certainly there. Palestinians are gearing up to potentially cross the fence. That’s not something I see Israel tolerating. They’ll be slaughtered.

This is a tragedy, experienced competent leaders within the NPS are slated for replacement, on short notice, with climate denying stooges and 45s yes men who have no interest in preserving out National Parks and Forests, for future generations washingtonpost.com/news/ener…

Dear America, This is cruel & stupid in a number of ways. Bc 🇺🇸 is unique in the way we measure poverty, this change, combined with continued largesse for domestic agriculture help keep people from qual’ing for aid AND reduce the 💵 they get if they do qual. ❤️, LocalGov xitter.gq/centeronbudget/status/…

.@realDonaldTrump has proven he cares more about protecting our biggest polluters than investing in clean energy. We have to start putting our future before oil company profits. We have to end fossil fuel subsidies. Add your name: rb4c.com/EndFossilFuels act.democracyforamerica.com/…

Happy #EarthDay! The @Space_Station provides us with unparalleled Earth views. Take a moment to appreciate the beauty and majesty of this wondrous planet that we share.
True this... Earth will be fine. Humans will not. xitter.gq/neiltyson/status/98812…
The perennial cry to “Save Earth" is odd. Planet Earth survives massive asteroid strikes -- it'll survive anything we throw at it. But Life on Earth will not.

The lead water lines in Flint still haven't been replaced. But Michigan's Republican governor is ending distribution of free bottled water in Flint. Resources should go where they're needed the most, not just to the most well connected. I stand with Flint freep.com/story/news/local/m…
