We should be talking about this every day all the time until we get it under control
BREAKING: June 2023 has blown away all prior records for the month of June, coming in at a staggering 0.16C above the prior record set in 2019. It was around 1.46C above the typical temperatures we saw in June in the preindustrial era (1850-1899).

FYI, this story contains ZERO on-record comment from NYC pizzeria owners who say climate rules would harm them or affect quality of pizza. The only source who says that is an anonymous "pizza restaurateur," who gave no reason for anonymity nypost.com/2023/06/25/nyc-ru…

“Here’s what I want to do to mark Kissinger’s 100th birthday: I want to talk about some of the many, many people around the world who didn’t get to live till 100, or even 60, 70, or 80, *because* of Henry Kissinger.” My commentary - pls do watch & share:

The pointless brutality of the Russian occupation still has not been fully exposed
This a school basement in a Chernihiv village that Russians turned into a concentration camp. I visited it today. And I listened to survivors for hours, shocked, in disbelief. The media narratives do not do the justice to what happened there. 1/

Was sinnvolles auf Fox News.
Woah. A mother in Nashville just took over a live stream on Fox News to call out Republicans’ opposition to gun reform. (h/t @atrupar)

Once upon a time, it was heresy to point to a relation of profits with inflation & to suggest price policy could be part of fighting inflation. Both are now views of high priests. In @ProSyn I reflect what follows for a new economic policy playbook. project-syndicate.org/magazi…

Russlands Krieg gegen die Ukraine hat mich gelehrt: In Extremsituationen wird klar auf wen Verlass ist und auf wen nicht. @ConstSeibt formuliert es mit den Worten: «Und wie vor 100 Jahren stellt sich wieder die Frage: Wer bist du, wenn es wirklich zählt?» republik.ch/2023/03/17/ruhm-…
