btw did you know you can subscribe to PBS for only like $5/mo or a $60 one-time for a year donation, and get access to their Passport streaming service? They mail you a little live programming guide and everything, too. The 40-something seasons of NOVA alone are worth it.

As the Butte Turns Change is afoot in the northern Gunnison Valley; few who live in Crested Butte would deny it. The roads are busier, construction is booming, and it seems that one major development after another is…

For more on the complexities of Crested Butte's evolution (Indigenous Ute civilizations → mining & extraction → recreation tourism → current amenity era), check out Katherine Nettle's piece, "As the Butte Turns."

Democrats and climate groups ‘too polite’ in fight against ‘malevolent’ fossil fuel giants, says key senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island gives 300th climate speech on the US Senate floor

“The fossil fuel industry has run the biggest & most malevolent propaganda operation the country has ever seen,” Whitehouse said. “It is defending a $700 billion/year subsidy & avoiding being charged for the health & planetary damage burning fossil fuels causes.”

The Machine Stops The neurologist Oliver Sacks on steam engines, smartphones, and fearing the future.

In a letter drawn from a posthumous collection of correspondence, published in 2019, the neurologist Oliver Sacks argued that society had no immunity to the seductions of digital life. “What we are seeing—and bringing on ourselves—resembles a neurological catastrophe on a gigantic scale,” he wrote.

4.6 Billion Years On, the Sun Is Having a Moment In the past two years, without much notice, solar power has begun to truly transform the world’s energy system.

Globally, roughly a third more power is being generated from the sun this spring than last. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world, @billmckibben.bsky.social writes.

My own writing is a bit of a slog right now. But there is something delicious and potent about consuming the art that this country so desperately wants to withhold from us. I will read and listen to and lay eyes on every bit of rebellious art you create. I will DEVOUR IT. Tag me. Link me. Gimme.
