This week it’s hard not to despair as we see everything we’ve lost. But public health has always been an act of faith. Faith that incremental changes can make vast differences in the future. So keep speaking up. Keep doing the work. We are the keepers of the seeds. And we will grow again. 💚

the basic problem facing american democracy is that one party has decided it wants a king and will hand over as much authority as is necessary to make that happen

I think it's very important to note that when you want to run human misery like a business--a business based on rounding up people to ship them to a country they aren't from to work in forced labor camps--you're a slaver.

Clean energy powered 40% of global electricity in 2024, report finds
Thinktank says solar has been fastest-growing energy source for last 20 years, but remains dwarfed by hydro power
The world used clean power sources to meet more than 40% of its electricity demand last year for the first time since the 1940s, figures show.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Don't let up on Signalgate.
The Mueller report cited rampant use of Signal as a means of obstruction of justice.
The entire discussion is fait accompli.
Also guarantee it is how everyone inside this thug WH communicates.
Which means the law is being knowingly & deliberately violated every day.

Hey NBC and Seth Meyers, y’all need to book the largest possible venue in D.C. on April 26th and do a competing fundraiser and comedy show that actually celebrates the First Amendment. Televise it. Make Amber Ruffin the central act. Send a message that free speech is non-negotiable.
