I'm blown away by the #UK #government's decision to approve a new #CoalMine. In an acute #climatecrisis, where we claim to be leading the way on #NetZero, deciding to mine and export #coal is as hypocritical as telling everyone to #lockdown and then throwing a party for your mates. #PartyGate put lives at risk but #ClimateChange is a much greater threat. Breaking rules that were there to save lives is the worst way to govern.

The Fed has been hellbent on raising interest rates to slow the economy. That completely puts the burden of fighting inflation on low-wage workers and the poor.

Meanwhile, corporations are getting off scot-free as their profits hit a record $2.1 trillion in Q3.

Politico put it this way:

"The former president and the person that polls show is still the most likely GOP presidential nominee in 2024, today on Truth Social called for the suspension of the Constitution."

This poses a problem for journalists who would cover the 2024 election. By what logic can that coverage proceed?

Neutrality makes sense only within a constitutional order that his candidacy is trying to upend. "Just report the news" pretends this will be a normal campaign.

Ah Texas - now forever known as the home if gun care and health control. #histodons

A 15 year military vet and a drag queen with sharp heels subdue the Club Q shooter with his own gun. #LoveNotHate #histodons

When do the state GOP reps and federal ones passing hundreds of anti-lgbtq laws, harassing drag performers, teachers, queer and trans kids, own their responsibility for the kind of violence we saw at Club Q in Colorado. #BloodOnTheirHands #Histodons

Flashback to the Pulse shooting. Mad respect for the patrons at Club Q who grabbed the shooter's gun and subdued him. Unarmed gay people stopping violence. #LoveNotHate #Histodons
