Aliette is an amazing, powerful, ingenious writer, but more importantly she's an amazing, kind-hearted person who deserves all that is good in the world, and instead she's in a tough situation. If you can afford to help her out at all, please do so. gofund.me/0835f91c

As a Gen X kid, I was promised two possible futures: 1) Post-apocalyptic wasteland where people fought for the remining scraps of civilization 2) Techno-Hell where our lives were ruled by megacorporations that took over the government Looks like Option 2 was the winner. Still time for 1, though

Gavin Newsom launched a website to combat the wildfire disinformation spreading about Los Angeles, because people can’t be bothered to do a simple Google search before sharing nonsense. And because people suck! Get the facts: californiafirefacts.com

A reminder that Los Angeles had its hottest summer in history last year. Southern California has received just 2% of "normal" rainfall during the current "rainy" season. These fires are a direct result of a warming & drying atmosphere caused by burning fossil fuels. We are in a climate emergency.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

Sometimes my dog finds things on walks and tries to sneak them home by hiding them in her mouth. I catch her when she drops them on our patio. Mostly bones. Today it was a rib. (And now I’m hungry for ribs.)
