The young people in our @obamafoundation.bsky.social Leaders program give me hope. One of those leaders, Luisa Neubauer, is working to fight climate change and recently traveled to Antarctica.
This Earth Day, I hope you'll check out her incredible story.
HAHAHA! That response killed me. And it's so damn true.
Sky News: Human penises are shrinking because of pollution, warns scientist.
Greta Thunberg: See you all at the next climate strike :)

AOC is all sensible Americans right now, Americans who have completely lost patience with the wildly incompetent, lying loons currently running things who undermine our sanity, wealth, and wellbeing.
ICE is running a for profit industry and locking up people like DACA recipient Juan Velasco and Doctor Ezequiel Véliz. We've seen ICE detain, deport, and kill U.S. citizens.
I am voting NO on the shutdown deal. ICE does not deserve another taxpayer dollar. youtu.be/Tn9qwcgHdrQ?...
Apparently, mushrooms used to be super gigantic, like bigger than trees. I think i read that in a richard powers novel
Listen, happy for Virginia but we still have a long ways to go. The democrats in most places are soft on pluralism and being real progressives. Let’s hope this changes .
Somebody posted this on a Discord server I frequent. Possibly the most Edwardian feline gentleman I have ever seen.

AOC talking to RFK Jr. Her facial and hand gesture has the spiritual energy of that Italian hand gesture where you pinch your fingers and wave your hand (the "ma che vuo" gesture).
how it feels to say "sprezzatura"
Someone on "The Sopranos" spitting Italian slang for "you fucking idiot" that I had to look up online.
Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.
In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.
249 years later, we have this idiot.
Incredible shots of the exchange between Rep. AOC and RFK, Jr. at today’s congressional hearing.

Mayor Mamdani and a group of children hold hands while running through red tape in a hallway.
For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.
We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.
I never thought Trumps Tarrifs was a way to funnel money from the public money collected by the government to individuals in Industry since the consumers have no compensation from actually paying them. #tarriffs we don’t give crooks the credit for imagination.
Swinney turns down White House invite. Good 👍.
3rd woman White House cabinet member labor secretary Lori Chavez ousted, but Hegseth and Kash Patel remain untouched.
Hmmm...🤔

Allegedly tRump tried to grab the nuclear codes in a White House meltdown—only for the Joint Chiefs chairman to stand up and say “No.” Apparently, even the military knows this unhinged man is too dangerous for the football. How much longer can America risk it?

10% of the national budget is being ‘ozarked’ to certain ppl. How interesting.
Several people with signs like this at the Boston Marathon today
SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”
mRNA vaccines continue to show major promise.
In a small Phase 1 trial led by Dr. Balachandran, some patients with pancreatic cancer (one of the deadliest cancers) reached 6-year survival.
This is why sustained investment in science & research matters.

I highly recommend this book.
It's amazing.
If you guys ever start a Bluesky Book Club, please tell me about it.
This is a snapshot of the failure of MSM and the concomitant ignorance within the American electorate about what is happening in and to their country.
Sometimes you watch a series and can just feel the bad vibes coming off from the writer & creator . It is dark, it is the worst side of this world and it is completely emotionally empty while simultaneously mapping current systems aptly.
THE ELECTRORATE is the moral issue of our time
The authors of the four Gospels of the New Testament.
What we think of technology in the last 25 years are just extensions of public services reimagined and privatized. The Exponential growth laws confused public into thinking tech was magic and a leap when it was just a progressive evolution of materiality. Anti trust laws are toothless #tech #goods
This is crazy. Just open-air larceny.
Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.
