The idea that "humanity" is heating the planet is BS. Rather, extractive colonial capitalist autocrats are heating the planet, killing the rest of us. These genocidal autocrats will be overcome. I imagine them freezing in the vacuum of space, a few miles from the planet that doesn't want them.

The stupidity, ignorance, arrogance, and fundamental unseriousness of American elites is never on such garish and carefree display as it is when they go to war.

Stunned and deeply saddened to learn of the death of Vince Rafael, brilliantly innovative and transformative scholar of the Philippines - and a warm and generous friend and mentor. I knew he was unwell, but never thought he'd go so soon. I was in touch just a few months ago...

I have devoted much of my weather & climate career to engaging with journalists--including 200-300 news media interviews per year, many of which involve recurring conversations to facilitate timely & contextually accurate coverage. This recent collapse has been stunning and deeply disconcerting.

They Did Deals With Trump to Get Lower Tariffs. Now They Are Stuck.

This is also true of the universities, law firms, and media orgs that settled with Trump. They gave away their integrity and their rights—and got what in return? www.nytimes.com/2026/02/22/b...

Trump order seeks to protect weedkiller at center of barrage of lawsuits President’s move, which also seeks ‘immunity’ for makers, faces backlash from health advocates and Maha coalition

Confluence of glyphosate news: the US executive order on glyphosate, Bayer offering to settle lawsuits, and the upcoming US Supreme Court decision on whether US states can have their own more stringent rules on glyphosate. Hmmm.

A recent post of “good” anti-Trumpers on 50501 is typical of US DNCers, filled w neocons in the style of Cheney. A new opposition is needed.

If Gaza didn’t convince you of the stinking moral rot at the core of virtually every elite institution in the West, Jeffrey Epstein was kind enough to confirm.

Correspondence with Noam Chomsky This is supporting material for the article See No Evil.

1. Noam Chomsky's response to the first tranche of Epstein docs - arrogant, high-handed, obfuscatory and, we now know, dishonest - reminded me of something: his response to my questions about genocide denial, 15 years ago. 🧵

I had to stop reading for a bit when I got here because I started to cry.

Alex Pretti seems to have grown up to be everything his parents could have hoped he would be. And then they killed him literally because he was good and decent, brave and righteous.

NEW LAWSUIT: We sued the Trump admin for failing to respond to FOIA requests about the admin’s drug-pricing deals with Pfizer & Eli Lilly.

Americans deserve to see these deals, which affect prices that we pay for Rx drugs.
