I’m still trying to figure things out. I use a lot of colorful language. Twisted sense of humor. Democrats are trying to make things better for all Americans. #VoteBlue #DemocracyMatters #TechnicalWriting #Editing #DogsofMastodon #CatsofMastodon

🧡Sometimes friends of mine say they feel guilt they aren't recycling more, or swapping out their lightbulbs for more efficient ones.

But those aren't really very important things to do to lower your emissions.

I think it's important that we all have a basic mental map of what really are the effective consumer choices.

This chart from Kimberly Nicholas and Seth Wynes at Lund University (2017) deserves to be more widely known.

@mekkaokereke Born and bred Texan here. I learned about this as an adult. They never taught me any of this in school.

Of course, I grew up in an age when the n-word was casually used. I think I was around 10 or so before I finally realized how awful it was.

That's how ingrained this stuff was in the 70s. Not sure it's much better today, but I certainly hope so.

Why are white Texans who died bravely fighting to keep slavery going remembered as heroes? But white Texans who died bravely fighting to oppose slavery, forgotten and not talked about? πŸ€”

What are we really celebrating?

"Everyone was racist back then!" No. No they weren't. Stop saying that.

it's unbelievable what's happening to the internet right now. just a vacuum of stolen wealth into the pockets of stupendously ignorant tech moguls, with virtually zero regulatory oversight stopping them from joyfully annihilating the informational backbone of modern society.

and our government's official position seems to be that it's constitutionally immoral to ask (let alone legally mandate) profiteers to not seek profit at literally any/every expense.

it's depressing. i feel lost. everyone i know feels lost, exhausted, scared, fed the fuck up. it cannot be allowed to go on like this. something HAS to give

I know that many of us are thrilled now that it looks like that orange chump is going to jail, but just imagine how thrilled Melania must be.
