Introverted but willing to discuss #NaturalClimateSolutions 🤓

I get it, I really get not wanting to vote. Shit is exhausting. Democrats are frustrating.
Republicans just are, in a thousand ways, undeniably worse.
And no, we shouldn’t have to vote for the lesser of two evils. But if we abandon voting, fascism doesn’t go away.

MUST READ commentary by Winona LaDuke about the proposed Talon Metals mine:

Our @Nature_MN peatlands work is making headlines yet again... Thanks @dan_kraker for coming out for a visit!

Hmmm!!! Seems like a bad idea!!!
If built, PolyMet would destroy hundreds of acres of peatlands releasing their stored greenhouse gases into the atmosphere and rapidly accelerating climate change.

Great article on one of the exciting climate projects I get to work on in this new job with @Nature_MN!
(Shout out to @kris_blann @alora_danan and many others for making this happen.)

Back in May, I organized two petitions at the @MinnesotaDFL state convention when I noticed that there was no specific mention of trans/gender-expansive & intersex rights anywhere in the party platform or action agenda

we know this PAC is unauthorized and accepts contributions that would FAR exceed the contribution limit to the campaign itself. and these donors have already maxed out to the campaign itself.
so any coordination between this PAC and the don samuels campaign would be illegal

.@IlhanMN's conservative primary challenger is falsely claiming to be a "progressive." So let's look at the rightwing donors who have funded him throughout his career and how those forces are continuing to bankroll him. 🧵
