Let's have a chat about solving the climate crisis in an efficient and effective way.
Cheers to everyone who stopped by our table to talk about fighting climate change with the #EnergyInnovationAct at Green Drinks! #GrassrootsClimate
Had to move to that other microblog app (user name in profile).
Having a member of the Presidential Administration owning this app is a massive conflict of interest and erodes free speech principals of this public square.
I don't think I'll ever be able to get over people supporting Trump post Jan. 6th.
Going to try to spend less time on this hellsite now that the election is over and more time on activism.

Bicycling is a powerful tool against depression & anxiety. That's one of many reasons to reform local zoning to legalize bike-friendly, mixed-use neighborhoods.
Most land use restrictions lead to car dependency and by extension, depression & anxiety.
While solar, wind, and battery are moving full steam ahead (minus permitting with moving those electrons), we need to double down on geothermal and nuclear.
Geothermal can put all those fracking workers to good use. Nuclear will help us meet the baseline load of AI needs.

Brown for Senate and Russo for Gov.
A decision Ohio Democrats have to make in the coming months:
Do they once again rely on longtime leaders like @SherrodBrown and @TimRyan — well-known, can raise $, but have fallen short as Ohio turned redder — for upcoming Senate and governor races?
Or do they take a chance on newer names like @DrAmyActon, @Russo4Ohio, @GregLandsman, @EmiliaSykesOH?

I think we're in for a lot of...
"I never said that"
"Play the clip"
...with this new 🇺🇸cabinet.
But does it matter? The gaslighting by the American right has been so effective, people don't believe their own eyes and ears anymore.
I need whatever drug these fuckers take 😂
Rich as fuck and they are complaining about the machine
Peter Thiel reluctantly agreed with Elon Musk's belief that if the Democratic Party won the 2024 election, it could consolidate power into a one-party state.
"I didn't want to believe Elon when he said this, so I texted him and told him I hadn't believed you when you said this at first. But I think this is because, psychologically, I don't want to believe that."
"The sense in which I felt that he was correct was if Trump, with much better substance and much better on so many things, could not win in 2024 against the machine, then the machine would always win."
"And if the machine always wins, then you no longer have a democracy. You certainly no longer have a democratic process within the Democratic Party. We can always debate the election shenanigans in November 2020."
"The far more extraordinary thing was in March of 2020 when Biden came in fourth or fifth in Iowa and New Hampshire and then somehow got rammed through South Carolina. All the other candidates drop out."
"So, this extremely non-democratic primary in the Democratic Party in 2020 led to an even less democratic process in which Biden was replaced with Harris."
"If the machine could defeat Trump, I thought it was reasonable that it would gain even more power and somehow be unbeatable, and the country would become like California, a one-party state."

Also caught up w/ @RepGarbarino, who led letter of 18 Republicans warning against repeal of IRA tax credits. He noted 14 of them will remain in House next year, and dismissed "skeptics" who doubt they'll hold the line against repeal. “They say a lot of shit they’re wrong on”

Even if Gaetz is withdrawn or rejected, what's frightening is the intent.
Trump is telling us loudly, as he did all year, what he wants the DoJ to do. There are plenty of flunkies who'll happily serve as his hatchet man and won't spark the GOP resistance Gaetz does.

In the past 55 years, the amount of children who walk to school has declined from 40.7% to 11%. Why? Because the built environment has transformed in ways that make walking to school unsafe and nearly impossible.
Maybe the world will be ok 😂
