We generally think that over-fishing is about fish that humans eat. But around a third of all wild-caught fish are turned into fishmeal, because fishmeal is around 65% protein and therefore in demand for for feeding farmed fish and pigs. It's an almost invisible trade with huge consequences. But it's not an efficient way to make more protein. We need to re-think these links and ask whether it's really worth the damage to the ocean & communities.#ocean #fish #fishmeal

Not so breaking news: Hunter Biden is not running for public office.

With the stroke of their pens, six unelected Supreme Court justices blocked student debt relief, ended affirmative action, and made it easier to discriminate against LGBTQ+ people

What happened to the belief that the Supreme Court had no role in legislating?

Journalists/writers covering #MauiFires or any of the climate-related disasters would benefit from clearer understandings of connections globally across colonialism, imperialism, capitalism, racism, international development, patriarchy to #ClimateChange. I hope these help but feel free to ask!

Trump boasts he could bring peace to Ukraine in 24 hours. Please. This guy couldn't build a wall along the border in four years. And infrastructure week? Never happened. That took Biden to get done.

Hey, America, Grow Up!
"Left or right, apparently we’re all victims now.

The instability of the self has created an immature public culture —

impulsive, dramatic, erratic and cruel.

In institution after institution, from churches to schools to nonprofits,

the least mature voices dominate and hurl accusations,

while the most mature lie low, trying to get through the day."

UPDATE: Bar discipline authorities say John #Eastman's disbarment trial should go forward despite the threat of indictment. He's known that he was criminally exposed for years, they say.
