I love this for them - please keep leaving him unmarked 😅

This is actually really surprising (and good).

🌐 NEW | Analysis: Global fossil power generation fell in March after Hormuz closure due to solar & wind growth

⚠️ Fall in gas-fired generation offset by large increases in solar & wind power, not coal

Back when I went to a Christian college, my professors used to call stuff like this “heresy” and “idolatry”

The Artemis II mission was incredible. We can do big things and do good things for the country and the world, when we work together and stand up for each other.

BREAKING: Following the American threat of an “Avignon Papacy,” Robert Kennedy has begun a Diet of Worms

> the white house is at war with persia
> and threatening to install an antipope over the American Catholic Church

what year is this

It's hard to draw any other conclusion than: The country is being run by criminals who are short-trading on threats of war and annihilation.

there are many horrors contained in the Trump admin's war in Iran. but one of the lesser ones is the way he has turned us into the audience for his reality TV show. will he or won't he? tune in at 7! grotesque voyeurism that implicates us all.

American religiosity has been in decline for some time, but the way some performatively religious people have accepted Trump will accelerate that decline significantly. It’s a mortal wound to the credibility of American evangelism.

Man I just love this club. Stoked for the newest Sounder.

that's right

Broken record but will never get over RFK Jr, a lifelong environmental attorney, deciding "yeah this is the admin I want to be in, I'm good with all this"

Once again

If you were purposely trying to destroy the country, you’d do stuff like this.

"To put those 12.3 GW of output during peak demand into perspective:
- 15-20 combined-cycle gas plants
- 6 hoover dams
- More than all-time peak demand in Portugal or Greece"

John, in Revelation:

good news the dogs are still good

like six months ago, the IRGC consolidating a stranglehold on the entire iranian government would have been considered a worst case scenario

but what would (checks notes) the head of the International Energy Agency know about oil markets

Basically the shifting goals means Iran won, and I don’t say this flippantly

Map of the lower 48 United States showing 0.25° GFS run from 18z on 20 March 2026. The variable is the 500 hPa geopotential height percentile rank considering ERA5. There is a record-breaking ridge across the Western U.S.

Honestly, this historic heat dome across the West is really hard to put into words for me. Temperatures over 110°F (43°C) in March, shattering all-time monthly records on multiple consecutive days, and not just by a little.

➡️ I can confirm this is human-caused climate change.

I've interviewed more than a dozen hydrologists and climatologists across the West the past 10 days.

A sense of panic is starting to set in. Wildfires and water shortages will start mounting this summer. Adverse impacts are expected from not only this heat wave, but the historically warm winter.

Estimated cost for five years of universal pre-k in the U.S. is about $175 billion.

It always shocks me how much people complain when the Sounders approach games like this. They’re good at it! They will make you bash your heads against a wall for the entire game and then put you down the second you fall asleep even a little bit!

Put em to bed Paulie 💚

Look I’m high on DeRo but he ain’t cutting it tonight for the sounders

Please be ok Jackson
