Lemme tell you a story.
I was outed at 17. A mom learned that I had a boyfriend & alerted anyone who’d listen. She howled about my “corrupting influence” & insisted that my gayness was contagious.
Peers were pulled from my classes.
Others stopped showing up to practice. (1/8)
Congratulations to Jillian Sanders, MS student of Julie Loisel @tamugeography, for passing your defense: Arctic mineral soils lose SOC more easily than peat soils. Thanks for letting me serve on your committee. #soil#soilcarbon@jillsands98
(2 defenses down, 1 more to go!)
If you describe peatlands as "fossil fuels for the future", I'm coming for you.....
Protect peatlands and peatlands will protect us. There is no safe climate without conserving and respecting peatlands. #COP26
Greg Abbott trying to erase MLK Jr., César Chávez, and Susan B. Anthony from the Texas curriculum, and recast the KKK as the good guys.
This is an assault on history and it must be stopped. https://t.co/GEhV6kS1U2
Governor Abbott vetoed an anti-cruelty bill for dogs. The bill would have protected dogs from being left outside in harsh conditions.
Texas needs to be ready to vote in a better governor in 2022 because this is getting ridiculous.
Alert: Due to a combination of high gen outages typical in April & higher-than-forecasted demand caused by a stalled cold front over TX, ERCOT may enter emergency conditions. We do not expect customer outages. Declaring an emergency would allow us to access additional resources.
BREAKING: Gilead is charging $3,000+ for its COVID drug, remdesivir.
Taxpayers spent $70,000,000 to develop this drug. It should be in the public domain.
Instead, Big Pharma is robbing us blind.
We must shame @GileadSciences into changing course. Please share this.
