NEW from me: Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company is operating 35 gas turbines without any pollution permits, belching asthma-worsening emissions into an area that leads Tennessee in ER visits for asthma. www.eenews.net/articles/elo...

About 140 people came out to protest in Crossville, Tennessee, which voted nearly 80 percent for Trump. Lots of honks of support. Wherever you are, you are not alone. I promise.

These protests are important but they 100 percent need more fun party vibes. Like, if I'm spending every other Saturday protesting, I'm gonna need some good tunes to bop to and snacks to share after.

Chris Murphy is fabulously kind. 😍 "Everybody here has to decide how much energy they're going to put in to trying to fight for that world. Because you were so bold & courageous, I bet everybody in this room is going to work a little bit harder to make the world you're asking us to believe in."

Question: a Trump supporter is saying the "tariffs are dropping like flies." Does this mean that Trump is dropping tariffs? Or she thinks other countries are capitulating?

My baby normally only sleeps for 90 minute stretches at night, but after going to a protest yesterday, he miraculously only woke up one time last night, so....I guess we are going to protests every day now.

True story, I was holding a "trans rights are human rights" sign today and a woman in a MAGA hat came up and started yelling in my face about groomers even as the six month old in my arms started crying. Remember this next time establishment Dems say it's mean to call them "weird."

Major shoutout to local National Weather Service offices who have issued literally hundreds and hundreds of tornado / severe thunderstorm / flood warnings in just the past 36 hours alone. Most offices are doing this amid staff shortages. SPC / WPC teams doing amazing work, too. Scientists matter.

One of my Hearst Connecticut colleagues, Mike Gagne, is looking for help. His partner has a serious liver disease and needs a transplant from a living donor. Read this message from Mike for more info, and please share widely if you can. #nutmegsky

Journalists: Are you already seeing a chilling effect from academics being afraid to speak to you? I'm working on a story that is on a semi-controversial topic for a pub with good name recognition and it's like crickets. Spring break or something else?

Everyone warns you the first 8 weeks with a new baby are so hard, but no one tells you about the total draining of your soul you'll experience after 6 months of chronic sleep deprivation.
