This video gets at a lot of my thinking. At @thirdact we've worked without cease to elect @KamalaHarris, because we know we will have someone worth pressuring--just as we've done with Obama and Biden. If you're considering voting 3rd party I hope you'll take a look

Precisely. Some claim things cannot get worse. They absolutely can. Look to any country where the prisons are bursting with political prisoners. There is no shame in voting against even worse. Fascists triumph when we lose our capacity to think strategically.
"As shocked and stunned as I was, there was no way I was going to let him say that to me, unchallenged." My response to the racism & incitement on Monday, to a CNN pro-Trump panelist telling me: “I hope your beeper doesn’t go off," because I said I supported Palestinian rights.

The big idea of the Green New Deal is climate policy you can touch. Literally. The political theory is that that's how you make cutting carbon pollution something that ppl viscerally understand, care about, fight for. Otherwise... carbon goes up but the politics don't care.
Carbon emissions are growing FASTER now than they were before the pandemic. We are not on track.

One of my goals an editor, writer, and activist is to speak out about the genocide carried out by the Israeli Defense Forces against the people of Gaza. I remember how scary it was to speak out in …
Yesterday I tried to take my sign that said "There is no disability justice without a Free Palestine - this is the biggest cohort of child amputees in history" to the children's wing of the State Library Victoria, named after donors who support Netanyahu & Israel's genocide. 🧵

Over 40 years ago, Exxon's top scientists internally warned the company that climate change could lead to "catastrophic" weather events. Now those fossil-fueled catastrophes are playing out before our eyes. https://t.co/tDZcbFy8qA

Climate scientists tell HEATED the historic storm represents "the profound irresponsibility and culpability" of polluters.

The weaponisation of #water by Israel continues. Destroying #drinking and #irrigation water supply is a humanitarian crime. Yet, this is all allowed to happen. Again, again and again.
Geolocated the Israeli airstrike that targeted the water weir on the #Litani River, which is used for irrigating 6,000 hectares of agricultural land along the southern coast of Lebanon. Coordinates: 33.329378, 35.259969. #Lebanon

Speaking of abandonment, my brother is incarcerated in FL. There is a historic hurricane heading his way, and not a motherfucking thing I can do to protect him. It is unlikely they will evacuate him and others. I do not have the patience.
