For historians/ppl who know history: did the German public who were complicit with the rise of nazism ever realize they were the bad guys? After the end of the war, did the public by & large understand they were wrong? Or were they just upset they lost? I know you can’t generalize to everyone but…

$1,131,794,901 That's how much Big Oil has spent over the last 30 years paying off Congress to look the other way on climate action while the planet burns. Well, the planet is burning. Don't let them look away.

I don’t know if it’s a race thing or not but, I just had to go back up to the counter in the restaurant that I’m eating at in Morocco because I asked for mint tea and these people gave me a kettle with mint leaves and no water… 🥴

To the woman across from me on this plane, who has had to deal with her 2 (screaming) young children for the entire 5 hour flight from LA to DC… You remind me of why I’m excited that I don’t have any children! 🤪

My all time favorite MythBusters episode was when they put a bull in a china shop to test the, uh...myth? that a bull is not good to have in a china shop. But the bull was in fact super polite and didn't knock anything down, so the myth was totally busted.

Last night we went Christmas shopping at a Night Market in Culver City. They had great, unique gifts (including a young woman with a typewriter who wrote custom poems for $10). It felt so good spending our money on local artists who are just happy for the business and don’t want to control the world

In Washington, DC, a tax on residents earning more than $250,000 a year is boosting the wages of child care workers. Two years in, it's proving to be a great investment.

I am trying to take public transportation more instead of driving. I am trying to eliminate my spending at Walmart and Amazon entirely. I am trying to use less plastic. I am trying to eat less meat and never get fast food. These tiny acts of resistance add up. I recommend you all try to do the same.

The lack of ads on Bluesky is already fantastic, but contrasting it with the alt-right cesspool of advertisers left on Twitter makes it even more wonderful. It’s so nice here.

There will be a lot of posts soon from people sharing how much they achieved in 2024. But, in case someone needs to hear this… it’s okay if the only thing you did this year was just get through it.
