So old, still brilliant. What an epitaph

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978? 100%? 500%? Try 1,085% Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The Human Genome Project cost taxpayers $3 Billion. Two decades on, it has generated a staggering return on investment of $1 Trillion, with benefits in medicine, agriculture, energy, the environment, & more. If you want to boost the economy, funding science is one of the best things you could do.

At this juncture I’d like to point out: * we’re on the brink of a golden age of medical healing * there’s enough money in the world to solve every problem in the world * a united approach could stop the climate crisis But a small group of sociopaths seeking personal power are going to throw it away.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

for like 20 years we've been doing these experiments and they have the same results every single time and the people in power are always like "ok good, just a few more experiments to know for sure"

The abuser’s classic playbook is to isolate you from your friends, create a sense of helplessness, make it difficult to connect with others and force you to simply think about your survival from one day to the next. We are seeing that playbook applied to the nation as a whole.

Them: we call it the woke mind “virus” to communicate how deadly and awful it is and that it must be eradicated. Also them: enh, measles is FINE.

The state of California is warning 23andMe customers to delete their data because odds are good that the company is going to go bankrupt. If I were you I would prioritize doing this. https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-urgently-issues-consumer-alert-23andme-customers

We’re well on our way to pariah state status.

'Who owns land is one of our oldest and darkest secrets... so I'm excited that the government have announced plans to open up the Land Registry' Was great to speak with @mrjamesob.bsky.social yesterday about uncovering who owns England: youtu.be/gqS5OMVCL-E?... (1hr 25mins in, 11.50-12noon)

Here’s a poem called ‘From The Encyclopedia of Alternative Facts’.

today, despite These Ongoing Horrors, lichen the world over grew a little, as they enjoyed their symbiotic relationship and slowly enjoyed an eternal meal of cold hard rock

Whoever did this, yes. ☕️🦋✌🏽

Why are we asking our children to "share the road" with oversized vehicles? Without adequate infrastructure, the freedom of a person to drive these vehicles conflicts with the freedom of children to move around neighborhoods and cities safely.

If you're not ok with sending a Nigerian prince your personal and private information, why would you be ok with a South African oligarch barging into government offices and stealing it?

Excellent tool to help keep track with what is going on with DOGE, spending 'pauses' and cuts, and the new Trump Administration.

The USA has had two major plane crashes in the last 4 days. The USA had previously not suffered a major plane crash for 16 years. ‘DEI’ programs have existed for decades. So what was it that changed in the last 14 days or so to suddenly cause so many crashes?

Just checked out @sarahkendzior.bsky.social’s “Hiding in Plain Sight” (2022) from local public library (via Libby). She’s the modern-day Cassandra:

Scientific discovery and advance is not, and never has been, “efficient”.

Every year, my cycling goal is not to be hit by a driver operating a motor vehicle.

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻

I am running for nature at Kew Gardens on March 29. I am running for my future. A future I hope is full of birdsong, fish splash, and hoove beats. I am running for the Great Auk and Slender-Billed Curlew, both birds we failed to save. I run for hope. & I run fast because we are running out of time.

People who hate socialism always say things like “so everybody gets free healthcare and a free house, what’s next a pony?” And I’m like yes, ponies are super cute and smart and hard-working, how about everyone owns a pony instead of 100 jerks owning super yachts
