Stop it with your "realism." Yesterday temperatures spiked to 1.58 °C above the baseline. The Arctic could see ice-free summers within a decade. Species are going extinct at 1,000 times their natural rate. We are barreling towards the brink of annihilation. How can this go on?

Pleased to share I'm joining the Omidyar Network's reporter in residence program—I'll be the first tech journalist on board. This support will let me pursue a number of stories about AI, labor & big tech that I'm very much looking forward to tackling. omidyar.com/omidyar-networ…

DARK WATERS (2019) was so excellent. The next corporate-intrigue thriller will have to come from another production company. Participant Media, also behind An Inconvenient Truth, is shutting down. (h/t Brad Johnson SUBSCRIBE TO HILLHEAT.NEWS's newsletter, Hill Heat) variety.com/2024/film/news…

BREAKING: We just shut down a gala honoring U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski. Murkowski is a murderer. She incinerates us to enrich her cronies. As Chevron's top lobbyist gave her an award, we stepped in and stopped the ceremony. Respect us or expect us. 🧵

A little inconvenient for the NYT/Fox News narrative

Last night's Emergency Seder in the Street in NYC was a powerful embodiment of the spirit of Passover. The Guardian published the text of my speech: "Exodus from Zionism" theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

I was at nearly every protest during the George Floyd protests and that was the most violent police action I have ever seen. Pure violence and rage directed against students peacefully protesting. Absolutely disgusted and enraged at Michelle Wu 吳弭 and the Boston Police #bospoli

BREAKING: We SOWED CHAOS at the MoMA's biggest gala of the year, demanding they cut ties with billionaire climate killer and and land thief Henry Kravis. We rushed the stage at the MoMA Party in the Garden and occupied the dance floor, halting FLETCHER's live set 🧵

YESTERDAY: At the #ConfMtl we got him. We called out Henry Kravis - CEO of KKR that is funneling money into the oil and gas industry (15 billion in the past 2 years), funding the CGL pipeline on Indigenous lands - and ultimately burning this country.

It was my great honor to get arrested today protesting @citi w Dr. Sandra Steingraber 🏳️‍🌈 & Scientist Rebellion. It is insane that we have to confront state power in order to stop banks from destroying a livable future, but so be it. Whatever it takes. 💚👶🌎 #SummerOfHeat #EndFossilFuels

HAPPENING NOW: It’s a rocking chair rebellion! Elders blockade the doors at Citibank with rocking chairs to demand the bank stop funding oil, gas and coal. There is no Planet B. Our grandchildren deserve to live.

This governor just blocked congestion pricing, one of the most important climate policy advances possible. She's redefining trolling
