The ICC’s chief prosecutor has lost access to his email, and his bank accounts have been frozen. American staffers at the court have been told that if they travel to the U.S. they risk arrest. NGOs have stopped working with the ICC, the leader of one won’t even reply to ICC emails.

Effectively a full repeal of the largest climate bill in history. There’s no strategy for America’s future. We all get sicker and pay more in energy bills and suffer climate disasters, while some rich folks pay less in taxes. That’s it. Disgraceful.

I’ve never met someone “abundance-pilled” who really understood environmental review, law and policy, NEPA/CEQA, or the realities of siting transmission or renewable energy projects. Never once. They’re all just running their mouths on vibes.

Feel like I’m missing something about the political/factional pitch of abundance. If Texas is an example of a place where it’s easy to build and live, then why have decades of that being the case not turned the state blue? If anything it’s become a laboratory for the right’s most heinous policies

“MAGA 2.0 is so disruptive and unpredictable, and so anti-incumbent institutionally, that it only resembles one thing – which is Putin invading Ukraine in 2022….an action designed to shatter preconceptions of what normal behaviour by states ought to be.”

This is a good backgrounder on Schmitt/Strauss/American authoritarianism, although it leaves out a lot of the really weird stuff. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/04/o...

The entirety of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health was wiped out last night in a form letter sent by RFK Jr. NIOSH is an agency in the CDC that investigates workplace hazards and finds solutions. It protects workers, so it’s gone. Even firefighters.

Over the past weeks I've had 2 major grants terminated, from EPA and NSF. Over $1 million of funding for human-enviro geography research lost. These terminations have negative impacts for myself, my graduate students, my university, community partners, and society. #withoutNSF #geosky 1/9 🧪

How did Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum became the most popular president in the world? Read this. www.netzeropolicylab.com/mexico-green... “We will not return to the neoliberal model … We will continue with Mexican Humanism and with the maxim of ‘For the good of all, first the poor.’”

We hadn’t won World War II by May 8th. I know because my family and I were still in an internment camp in Tule Lake, California.

Holy shit, you guys. I just read Curtis Yarvin'a actual writing instead of a summary. The man is 51 years old, treated as an intellectual by the Sand Hill elite, and he writes like the most annoying freshman honors student who ever discovered Nietzsche from a comic book guide to philosophy.
