This is a crucial decision. The court rejected the political claim that LGBTQ+ representation is “propaganda.” We must keep fighting politics that dehumanise us.
As a person in deep blood red Idaho, I disagree. I was one of 12,000 people on a Monday in Nampa, Idaho. That energy needs to get tapped. AOC has “it”. Clear and relatable messaging. www.idahopress.com/news/local/w...

The contiguous United States is experiencing record drought levels for this time of year, according to weather data.
This really is the only answer. Our dependence on fossil fuels must end. For our planet, and for our society.

I want to live where there are equal rights for all, voting rights, maintained public lands, affordable healthcare, renewable energy and environmental/scientific innovation, funding for the arts, gun control and quality education. And that is not the US. But it could be.
Excited to attend the ribbon-cutting for the next segment of California’s solar canal initiative later this month in Hickman. Imagine generating solar power over 4,000 miles or so canals across the state. A lot of Sierra and Colorado River water to save via avoided evaporation.
I highly recommend this book.

If you guys ever start a Bluesky Book Club, please tell me about it.
