COVID 19 is a litmus test for all of us who claim we want to see a better world.
If we are actually going to dismantle capitalism, patriarchy, colonialism, white supremacy and all of the isms that come with being socialized within it - we must dismantle it in ourselves.
The fight for a better world will involve sacrifice for all of us.
In the absence of government action to protect us from #COVID19 and not just action, but abandonment of any pretense that they care about our health as they #letitrip , we must take community centered action to protect ourselves.
Incredible . The most important climate change story today THAT DOESN'T MENTION CLIMATE CHANGE.

The crisis across 4 time zones isn't trolling, its an alarm, louder than any alarm ever rung.
The physics of our energy economy is wrecking the world.
It is coming for all of us, in Pakistan, a million homes wrecked, in Australia or California, or the Cat 4 Hurricane heading to LO(S ANGELES, or the Heat Deaths of 600 on their beds last year.

Steve Bannon is now issuing threats to people holding Trump accountable
"I keep saying the J6 thing with President Trump in Georgia. We're gonna ram the stealing of Georgia, down her throat. And we're going to ram it up the a** of the governor…

@zleap @shauny @gerrymcgovern I support non-profit organisations in Scotland who would love to have your old mobile phones! Anything under 8 years old is useful in #DigitalInclusion work to support people in poverty.
@gerrymcgovern who puts an old smartphone in a drawer?!
I have an elaborate string of hand-me-downs so the old phone goes to someone who’s old phone goes to someone else and so on and so on.
If you live in Southern #California, including major population centers, you should have a go bag prepared in case you lead to leave with short notice from flash flooding due to #Hurricane #Hilary. Most folks in major cities will be okay but it’s impossible to know right now exactly where problems will happen.
Preparation now saves lives. This will be a rain event that, especially for the desert, will be unparalleled in the modern era.
