Quote by Gp:
"Apr 24, 2025
Donald Trump and his billionaire bullies are using their wealth to silence dissent, roll back decades of social and environmental progress, and manipulate the game in their favour.
Enough is enough. It’s time to fight back. It’s time to resist."

Paywall, but maybe I don't want to read the inspiring story of "sports" and "summer" (ie really, extreme climate driven temperatures and heatwaves).
Under blistering summer temperatures, sports power through (paywall and headline only unless you pay... )

CBC: This atmospheric trend is devastating crops (and no one’s talking about it)
Scientists have coined a new term: thirstwaves. The phenomenon occurs during extended periods of unusually high evaporation — caused not from a lack of rain, but because the air is extra thirsty. Johanna Wagstaffe breaks down how thirstwaves could seriously affect farming and water supplies.

Three ideas in relation to degrowth / postcapitalism: 1/ Would it be technically viable to degrow and achieve an ecological planetary equilibrium and a fair global society (some experts say it would). 2/ Would that mean a better, more enjoyable life for the majority of people (it could be). 3/ Would it be possible to overthrow today's hegemonic order to develop this kind of degrowth ecological and more livable world (looks very difficult if not impossible considering the existing power balances).

@wdlindsy We must be willing to force our local political leaders and law enforcement to pick sides. Will they be willing to protect and serve or do #trumpliesmatter? #massdeportation is an expensive distraction. It siphons off resources that could be used to addressing real world, immediate needs like crime, #climatemergency response, community health, etc.

Per Jeff Berardelli: "Everything is stuck! That partly explains the 20” of rain along the Carolina Coast and extreme rains and snows in Central Europe. Take a look at the jet stream in the US and Europe. Rex blocks (high over top of low) abound with an extremely wavy jet stream!" #jetstream #ExtremeWeather #disasters #ClimatEmergency
massive flooding events like this one in Central Europe and the one in Brazil earlier this summer...
