Just thinking today… if we coordinated and pulled off a “no spending money day” yesterday…we can do other things nationwide! United we stand.

A bill with good odds of passing the Arizona Legislature would ban wind farms on about 90% of the state's lands, per an analysis from @joanmeiners.bsky.social @azcentral.com: www.azcentral.com/story/news/l...

If you think what Trump and Vance did isn’t treasonous, you’re delusional. Using Putin’s talking points to attack Zelensky?! A betrayal of everything America stands for. This crossed the fucking line.

As the world mourns the loss of the United States as the leader of the free world, we stand with Ukraine and condemn the actions of Donald Trump’s administration. I’m standing with you, Ukraine.🇺🇦💙

Oh you could say I dabble in Photoshop #teslatakedown @niedermeyer.online

Q. What is one thing trump knows how to do well? A. Reality tv… that’s what happened today in the Oval Office when The President of Ukraine came in good faith to save his Country.

Cool new paper from Jeff Prancevic and co-authors. Even more impressive that Jeff wrote this up as a side project while working full time for carbon-free cement startup company.

Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.

President Trump’s simpering fealty to Vladimir Putin and Russia is embarrassing and dangerous. Illinois stands with Ukraine, and so should the White House.

For the economic blackout today, I decided to spend some money. Not in businesses, but for Palestinian mutual aid. Will thread the accounts I am donating to today. Thank you to @mommunism.bsky.social for sharing these GFMs.

I don’t believe for one second that whole debacle in the White House wasn’t planned and orchestrated. Trump let JD go off on purpose. These clowns wanted it.

Is this how the USA surrendered to Russia? This and the obscene ruckus in the White House today?

The world’s oceans experienced three-and-a-half times as many marine heatwave days last year and in 2023 compared with any other year on record according to a new study in Nature Climate Change. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

WE STAND WITH UKRAINE 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

BREAKING: Trump and JD Vance brought Zelenskyy to the White House to humiliate him, talk over him, and call him “ungrateful” after abandoning Ukraine. They’re bullying him to sell out his country, mocking him when he refuses—while Trump sides with Putin and says, “you’re playing with WW3.”

Receipts don’t lie, TRUMP DOES —Zelensky has publicly thanked the U.S. multiple times on behalf of Ukraine.

It bears repeating.

Seems like something @amyklobuchar.com @klobuchar.senate.gov should maybe say something about?

As a casual non-white observer, it’s so bizarre to see folks work so hard to try to prove their superiority over someone like me when they could spend that time actually bettering their own lives and…I don’t know, be happy instead of miserable fucks.

Happy Black History Month! #BlackHistoryMonth www.sciencebuddies.org/blog/black-h...

If you want to control the price of eggs, you need to control bird flu. And the worst thing you can do if you want to control bird flu is censor scientists and scrub CDC data.

Well just received this email regarding a paper under review:

Science friends - please please call AAAS and any other contacts with the witnesses for tomorrow's hearing on the future of US science to demand they call out the Trump-Musk attacks on NSF, NIH, NOAA, DOE, USAID, etc. We need this on the record. #greensky #energysky

Friendly reminder that the NOAA National Weather Service provides information to American taxpayers free of charge to prevent loss of life and limb. As a diver & backpacker it has saved my life more than a hundred times The weather app on your phone just repackages the data in a nice font. 🌊🧪🥶🥵☔️⛈️🌈

Happy International Day of Women and Girls in Science! What'd you get me? (still shopping for a last-minute gift for the lady scientist in your life? this year, get her what she *really* wants: a functional funding ecosystem, strong scientific integrity policies, and open, publicly funded data)

You know why hurricanes have gotten less deadly over the past century? Not because they're less dangerous. Because scientists at NOAA have gotten really good at predicting their tacks, enabling people to get out of harm's way. Gutting NOAA will kill people.

The U.S. has two tsunami warning centers, both operated by NOAA. Employees were terminated from these centers today. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center covers Hawaiʻi, and now it is less safe to be near the beach. www.tsunami.gov

Bottom line: The intentional loss of exceptional scientists and other terrific public servants at NOAA leaves our country less safe and more vulnerable.

One of the people fired from NOAA today is the director of the Ocean Acidification Program. That program also leads the U.S. government's effort on marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR). The destruction of American science is incomprehensible.

Calling all Oceanography & Atmospheric Sci. professors! Let's teach our students the many & varied ways that the services that NOAA provides impacts their lives. This is a teaching & LEARNING moment to help Americans understand how federal agencies impact them directly www.axios.com/2025/02/27/l...

YOUR FAVORITE WEATHER APP IS JUST A PRETTY DISPLAY OF NOAA DATA Ppl seem to think that "NOAA weather forecasts" means climate-, boat-, or "in addition to my app"-weather. But the weather forecasts *we all use* are made from the NOAA data *we all paid for* Make that part clear when you ⬇️

It's like a Russian nesting doll of illegality: Musk holds no office running DOGE, DOGE has no lawful authority to direct OPM, and OPM has no legal power to insert itself in the chain of command from agency heads to their employees.

Saying an “able-bodied” man doesn’t deserve healthcare because he’s poor is some heartless, ignorant ass shit. Full-time workers still can’t afford healthcare because American jobs pay shit crumbs. Stripping away safety nets while ignoring the cost of living is pure evil.

ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about? VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦

Trump & Vance are monsters. Just absolutely shocking to bring one of the leaders of the free world into the Oval Office and dress him down to demand he thank Trump for Trump's greatness, while this actual leader tries to protect capitalistic democracy from Trump's flailing autocratic petrostate boss
