Updated my profile on the cursed bird site to reflect that I'm moving off FB too — fediverse only from here, plus my podcast/newsletter. I haven't posted since 2022, but I deleted a bunch of stuff anyway, just to deprive the AI. Fuck the billionaires, seriously.Bright Green Futures podcast: https://brightgreenfutures.substack.com/#solarpunk

These people have never blamed themselves or Trump for anything & they're sure not gonna start now.Giving people someone else to blame is a service Trump provides.There is no scenario where this is a good thing or results in anything but a lot of harm. There will be no satisfaction with that, so don't look for it. Put all your energy into building resiliency through connection and community. THAT is something they can't stop and is where you not only reduce harms but take back power.2/2

Reminder: do not fucking do this. Not only do not obey, do not assume there's nothing you can do, that you're helpless against the all powerful regime. Yes,they will do terrible things. But they can't stop you doing a thousand good ones. Get your oxygen mask secure first, use the tools already in place, don't assume it's pointless to <insert action here> just because they'll make it illegal later--that's a good reason to do it now. Don't game out ways to give in before they're even in office.

@susankayequinn yes, sustainability is revolutionary.

@GreenFire exactlywe've made huge progress in convincing the majority of the world's population (even America) that climate change is happening and humans are the causeNow we need to be savvy about how to get everyone in the fight, even in a small (but real) way. To not be a doomer (the new denier). To understand that everything matters. I'm a firm believer that once people start taking action, they will do MORE. Plus the climate will continue to apply more pressure.@chris

Energy Transfer is suing Greenpeace for $300M because they supported the Indigenous-led protests at Standing Rock (claiming that Greenpeace orchestrated the protests). This is a classic SLAPP suit (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation), and itself worthy of protest. Greenpeace has a petition you can sign:https://engage.us.greenpeace.org/7Q5gx3cufUuR0QpgZK7YSA2

A lot of my planting of seeds feels like an incantation that can't possibly work. I'm told nearly every day by some rando on the internet, a devotee of nihilism and inaction, that change is impossible.Change is the only thing I know will happen.The good kind comes from an incredible amount of work, work that feels impossible before it succeeds, and like magic after it does.I cast a little magic today. It feels good.3/3#ClimateChange #seeds #native #plants

@susankayequinn It was a self-referential statement, an internal contradiction. I meant what I said, but in retrospect realized I was just actually making some shit up.

@susankayequinn Don't discard the possibility that this is your female brain discarding the notions of a male brain built differently; a square looks like a circle when viewed through a fish-eye lens.... and then tell me of a problem that was solved by poetry! (My craving for artistic outpouring does not count!)
