As a journalist who appreciates great reporting and coverage - I canceled my Prime account instead of my #wapo sub. That costs #bezos real cash, while keeping my colleagues employed. That’s #whyisubscribe

Worth noting in the run up to Xmas season just how much money Bezos makes from Amazon Prime. A lot more than @wapo subscriptions. Just noting that I feel it’s important to shop locally now, what do you think AG? @MuellerSheWrote and @MarkHamill

Here's a link to check to make sure your mail-in ballot was accepted and counted. If you live in an area where there are reports of mailboxes being lit on fire, make sure your vote reached its destination. Everyone should check regardless.

Excellent thread here by Tzeporah Berman on how we are actually closer to the climate goal of fossil fuel phaseout that most analysts think.
Let’s get something straight about fossil fuel phase-out: renewables needn’t replace all the coal, oil and gas we use today bc most of it is just used to produce and move those fossil fuels around!. We only need to replace the useful energy: 37% of what we currently produce 🫨🧵.
