“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”

This reads like a dispatch from a dimension where macro logic went on vacation.
Welcome to Schrödinger’s Strait: a post-logic realm where the ceasefire is an observed phenomenon existing only in political imagination, & mines aren't 'there' until a sonar scan forces them into reality.

NO ICE
18 U.S. Code §592 ("Troops at Polls" statute) makes it a federal crime; up to 5 years in prison/fine, or both, plus disqualification from holding any U.S. office, for certain federal personnel to deploy troops or armed men at polling places during elections

Who is the narrator?
ICE hasn't slowed down. We must continue to speak up and defend our undocumented brothers and sisters.
Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."

Democratic establishment.
Democrat is a noun.
Democratic is an adjective.
The use of Democrat as an adjective is an attempted perjorative by right wing GOP. Please don't normalize their verbiage.
Many thanks!
Where is your outrage, your emotions, your energy for this horrific execution, dude? @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social
ICE attacked an observer after they tailed a group of clergy on a spiritual pilgrimage.
Our digital producer @sam.vp just so happened to be with the clergy on their journey. He spoke with the observer who was attacked and others who witnessed the assault.
I did too. Back in 2018. Awful. Just awful.
Today, Minneapolis had their annual Powderhorn Art Sled Rally. A community organized event that this time featured de-Icer sleds and bowling pins named for world leaders.
A very Minnesotan way to protest ICE. 😍🙌🏻
In “normal” times we wouldn’t be having conversations like this. We are not in normal times. Nothing is normal right now

Of course... we're on the same side.. just remember, word choice matters.
You said "Democrat" politicians like they would.
Democrat is not an adjective. It's a noun.
I don't want to belabor the point... just suggesting not using their "clearly wrong and attempt to be insulting" verbiage.
Agree .. so don't mistakenly use their verbiage

Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.
Democratic mayor.

Why does cli-fi resonate right now?
Because it blends creativity with real-world urgency.
Today’s readers want stories that reflect the world they’re navigating and the futures they hope for.
Full analysis:
Line graph time series of 2025's daily Arctic sea ice extent compared to decadal averages from the 1980s to the 2010s. The decadal averages are shown with different colored lines with purple for the 1980s, blue for the 1990s, green for the 2000s, and white for the 2010s. Thin white lines are also shown for each year from 2000 to 2024. 2025 is shown with a thick gold line. There is a long-term decreasing trend in ice extent for every day of the year shown on this graph between October and January by looking at the decadal average line positions.
Wednesday ice update: #Arctic sea-ice extent is currently the *2nd* lowest on record for the current date (JAXA VISHOP data)...

Good morning Barbara Clark, from Barbara Clark! Did we find each other one before on Twitter? Are you in Iowa city?!
Democratic party! Don't fall into the trap of misusing this word as the far right has done in an attempt to insult. Democrat is a noun. Democratic is an adjective.
Words matter!! @NPR etc.
There is another option
