You know, one of the things that doesn’t get communicated well at all is how much carbon emissions have dropped. Even as plugged in as I am, I somehow thought the US was putting out more carbon then ever. But no! We’re back down to 70s levels, and per capita is like 1940s!

There's been much gaslighting & moderate justifying of the new Florida social studies standards, people stating the "clarifications" were designed to show Black resilience, or were just "facts." So, I thought I'd compare the African-American history standards to the Holocaust's.

Covid infections can cause strokes, heart attacks and pulmonary embolisms in the post-acute phase. Even if the acute infection is mild. Even if you’re vaccinated/boosted. Even if you’re healthy. Even if you’re young. Even if you already caught it before and have “hybrid immunity”

Take that in. Then try wrapping your head around the fact that we’re only seeing the beginning of a destabilising planet, while remembering that GHG emissions are still rising and the companies largely causing this are making record profits.
A bit concerning, don’t you think?
