A whole new type of democracy is thriving in one of the toughest places in the world - despite a media blackout. Women lead. Taxes have been abolished and private property redefined. Prison is being phased out. Everyone gets a say. But now it's hanging by a thread. 🧵

Plenty more to say about why approving new oil & gas fields isn't the right tactic for a thriving, prosperous future for the UK, but even on the government's own "growth for growth's sake" approach, it doesn't make sense to double down on O&G:

This is how to do it, kids: Home insurance is now a climate story. Put it on the front, and put "climate change" at the top. Especially now that deniers will control the federal and state government. www.houstonchronicle.com/projects/hom...

If you bring central London to a halt to campaign against catastrophic climate change you're treated as a "barmy" eco "fanatic" who deserves to be locked up. But if you do the same to hang on to your multimillion pound inheritance tax exemption then you're a brave freedom fighter defying the odds

A handy phrase; value-action gap "discrepancy between the stated values of an individual or organisation and their actions" Basically the difference between what people say and what they do. Hence studies show increasing climate concern, but not action. 😵‍💫 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value-a...

A quick and powerful read. Lots to unpack here. Like, how do campaigners (like me) empower GenX to take direct action in a meaningful way...?

Feeling free to express myself on @bsky.app reminds me of the post-break-up phase of a toxic, codependent relationship. Where you finally get to talk to the friends that the controlling, narcissist ex has been stopping you from seeing. 🤔

#436 days sober. I'm in utter awe of this "bonus level". No more throwing days away hungover, or blackout in binge. Yes, I was functioning. But I was failing. I was resentful and arrogant. Convinced I had my valid reasons. Recovery is magical. Misery is optional.

I will never understand how a billionaire, the richest man on Earth, spent millions to buy an election for ANOTHER billionaire, and told us that his policies would cause all of us non-billionaires “temporary hardship...” ...and the public didn't tell BOTH OF THEM to fuck off.

i admit i live in an echo chamber of leftist politics, the only exception being when i hear things said by the president, the next president, the supreme court, members of congress, people on the news, my family, or people i encounter in my daily life.

I have compassion for people who have their head in the sand. I just wish they knew how peaceful and powerful it is to opt out of cognitive dissonance - and live life in the honesty, and in alignment with your ethics.

As a recovering addict, I fully endorse this message. Our decision makers are addicted to fossil fuel funds, and they are in the business of duping society into addiction too, to further feed their fix. We need an intervention.

Climate peeps I’m sure it’s been 24 hrs since I last reminded you that ALL nature based carbon offsets are junk on the basic science. There are no “better quality offsets” out there in the forests. You don’t need fieldwork or spreadsheets because you already have science😉😇.
