Big Oil Backtracks on Renewables Push as Climate Agenda Falters

TLDR: When we said we cared about the future of the planet, we were bullshitting. We care about $$$ and nothing elese. Sincerely Oil and Gas.

On this misty morning I wish you all a happy #socialistsunday
#solidarity to all.

piss baby Musk bragged pre-election about union busting, firing striking workers with Trump. now MAGA's surprised he told them to fuck themselves in their face bc he wants foreign workers as indentured servants? what part of his slave owning, apartheid supporting background did you not understand

If your feed is anything like mine, it is simply flooded with people from Gaza seeking life-saving assistance.

If you are able, I hope you will consider using some small portion of the money you have set aside for holiday spending to help one of these families.

Let's try to save some lives.

No walls, No checkpoints, No zionists; Just Muslim, Christian and Jewish Palestinians living in serenity 🕊️Yafa, Palestine, 1921

The pandemic was when Elon Musk took a hard turn to the right. Never forget this.
The critics of the lockdown and #COVID minimizers were never concerned about people's health.

A lot of people are replying something to the effect of “Let Darwin handle it”: I’d like to make something thing clear. Diseases do not stay in the populations they are originally in. This is why needle exchanges are critical. This is why preventing communicable diseases in *everyone* is critical.

Health insurance industry PR is working overtime right now diverting blame to physicians for claim denials and rising costs. I feel compelled to remind everybody that Optum (UHC) is the largest employer of physicians in the US. We have never had less power in healthcare than we do right now.

When my health insurance stopped covering insanely expensive meds that literally kept me out of the hospital, my GI took every sample bottle she could find in the city (called other docs too) and filled up a Ralph's bag with it and dropped it off at my house.

It's not the docs.

@who.int Director-General's remarks at a media briefing on 10 December 2024:

"We cannot talk about COVID in the past tense. It’s still with us, it still causes acute disease and Long COVID, and it still kills.

The world might want to forget about COVID-19, but we cannot afford to."

Tweet from @elonmusk: In most cases, the word “homeless” is a lie. It’s usually a propaganda word for violent drug addicts with severe mental illness.

Every day, the robber barons find new and creative ways to sink lower

Remember to @ mention @aaron.bsky.team and @jay.bsky.team so that they see that WE WANT THE NAZI COMMABORATORS OFF OUR SITE. Remove @jessesingal.com!

Just one mutation can make H5N1 bird flu a threat to humans, California researchers say The Scripps Research Institute finding counters prevailing thought that the virus would require multiple mutations before it poses a threat to public health.

One mutation. One single mutation. In an environment in which H5N1 is infecting multiple species (including humans) and a vast total number of infections.

1/5 A groundbreaking Amnesty report published today concludes Israeli authorities are committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. www.amnesty.org.uk/genocide-rep...

We made what you asked for, and we made it affordable- and no one else has stepped up and matched us in terms of cost or transparency.

Inexplicably, many of you have never forgiven us this insult. The attacks have been relentless from day one, all centered on who we are- not our work.

Laughter with the family
Installed an updated range hood
A phone call to Mom

Gaza is still hungry Gaza is still thirsty Gaza is still hurt Gaza is still bleeding Never stop talking about Gaza 🍉 ❤️

Don't stop talking about the genocide in Gaza. 🍉🍉🍉

Finishing mega article about POTS & Dysautonomia & feeling I’ve forgotten something

I tackle hydration, compression, lifestyle modifications, mobility aids, pacing, importance of rest, knowing your baseline and medications.

Anything I’ve missed? What do you wish you had known? 🧵/1

Recognize that good health is a gift that shouldn’t be risked unnecessarily - and start refusing to risk the health of other people. Wearing a mask says you care about yourself and your community.

It says that no one is expendable. No one is the exception. /end

I’ve been seeing some classic Monday morning quarterbacking as the necessity of #COVID19 lockdowns are being discussed once again. As usual, we’re seeing a lot of hyperbolic statements and attempts to create conversations around comparative suffering which is always just a 1/

Israel’s goal is to kill as many Palestinians as possible — directly with weapons or indirectly via a manufactured humanitarian crisis — while pretending they are ‘fighting Hamas.’

This grants their Western backers plausible deniability over the ongoing genocide.

Sure! Probably the first thing to know is that there is a whole range of particle sizes that we produce when we use our lungs, voice boxes, mouths and noses (our respiratory tract). Some of those are “big” and heavy: maybe you get splattered by a person talking to you.

It’s a 404 error now. Eager to read this article, please fix the link.

Either we fight to create a world within which justice is applied universally, rights are protected universally, and liberation for *all* is the bedrock of our efforts, or it is merely a matter of time before we or our children sit at the wrong end of the injustice we foster.

How COVID Helped Trump Win Biden never ended the pandemic, but he did end government efforts to mitigate its worst impacts

Anyway WEAR A MASK, join disabled people in fighting for public health protections and taking steps to mitigate disease substack.com/@thegauntlet...
