“… “I’m taking action because I feel desperate,” said U.S. climate scientist Peter Kalmus, who along with several others locked himself to the front door of a JPMorgan Chase building in Los Angeles. A recent report found that the financial giant is the biggest private funder of oil and gas initiatives in the world.
“It’s the 11th hour in terms of Earth breakdown, and I feel terrified for my kids, and terrified for humanity,” Kalmus continued. “World leaders are still expanding the fossil fuel industry as fast as they can, but this is insane. The science clearly indicates that everything we hold dear is at risk, including even civilization itself and the wonderful, beautiful, cosmically precious life on this planet. I actually don’t get how any scientist who understands this could possibly stay on the sidelines at this point.” …”
Corporate media will not cover the climate crisis.
center piece of brownie = pure decadence, shows a clear lack of restraint to a nearly destructive degree
edge piece of brownie = scaled back, a little more mature, but lacking the joie de vivre of the center piece, shows that one has accepted a less colorful world in exchange for an apparent “normalcy”
Ok I’m sorry but other white trans ppl should be unconditionally supporting black women (& all black trans ppl!) full stop
like listening to uplifting and celebrating black women is as much a key to our freedom & liberation as supporting the notion of trans rights like there is NO pride without them
The threat that we won’t have new shows and movies coming out because of the strikes would hit a little harder if 99.9% of everything coming out wasn’t God awful derivative schlock that you watch once and immediately forget.
“Due to the strike we’ve had to turn the diarrhea machine off”
if you are dealing with extreme heat or even just. moderate heat in your area right now. 80f/26c is when it starts getting toasty for a lot of people. if you are in a heat wave and you have not done yourself the favor of googling fucking “heat exhaustion symptoms” i am shaking you violently right now. look it up. burn the symptoms into your brain. heatstroke is no joke and it can and WILL sneak up on you before you’re aware it’s even an issue. ohh my god
if you are outside and it is hot and sunny and you are sweating thru your clothes or feeling tired or starting to get irrationally agitated or upset in another way or feeling nauseous or your heart is pounding etc etc if you are feeling Weird and Bad for no apparent reason while you are in a warm/hot area then i have news for you! you need to cool down! right now! oh my god.
and there’s a very good chance that you’re gonna think “it’s not heat exhaustion, i don’t feel any warmer than i have all day” when you consider it as a reason why you are suddenly feeling weirdbad for no apparent reason during a record-breaking heatwave and i would like to say. there is no harm in sitting in the shade and drinking some water even if heat exhaustion isn’t the cause of whatever ailment is inflicting itself upon u. once i swore up and down to my bf that i was just kinda tired and headachy and got bitchy about the possibility of being overheated and needing to drink water. because heat exhaustion tends to make you bitchy. but i did as he asked and drank some cold water and my condition immediately improved. because it was heat exhaustion and heat exhaustion is evil and a liar. sit down. drink water
When you do drink that water, make sure you’re drinking it slowly as well and taking breaks, don’t chug it
The term “polyamory” doesn’t mean anywhere near as much to me as the basic tenet of being open to spontaneous ecstatic Angelic romantic experience wherever I might find it. You can fall in love with someone for a weekend or a quarter of your life or 5 minutes or 10 million years and all of this is beautiful. Love comes in so many more prismatic colors than I ever thought possible, and the further I go, the more I let in, the more of them I can see.
