It’s tough to see some of the images coming out of Hawai’i — a place that’s so special to so many of us. Michelle and I are thinking of everyone who has lost a loved one, or whose life has been turned upside down.
If you’d like to help, you can do so here.

🔥🌍📈BREAKING @NASA 📈🌍🔥
The Earth's Energy Imbalance from NASA satellite data reached 1.97 W/m² (12-month mean)!!
I called this the most important graph in the world.
This helps to explain all the records currently being broken around the word!

Oceans globally are experiencing a marine heat wave, with water near the Florida Keys reaching into the 90s -- seven degrees above average. @Ginger_Zee dives into the ocean to see how the temperatures are bleaching the coral reefs at an unprecedented rate. https://t.co/kVyn13Rj8p
Canada’s Wildfire Season has broken all records before we even reach the historical beginning of the “season”. No Canadian wildfire season has ever once produced 12 terawatts (TW) of fire radiative power in recorded history; 2023 has produced 18 terawatts. #ClimateCatastrophe
This is war. It’s time for Joe Biden to crank up the volume and tell the greedy oil companies and the political opportunists that they’re going to hear all of us real soon.

Just remarkable -- Antarctic sea ice extent is quickly approaching 6 standard deviations below the most recent 1991-2020 mean.
Can an expert in Antarctic sea ice please chime in here? WTF is going on?

”The famous Italian diver Enzo Maiorca dove into the sea of Syracuse and was talking to his daughter Rossana who was aboard the boat. Ready to go in, he felt something slightly hit his back.
He turned and saw a dolphin. Then he realized that the dolphin did not want to play but to express something. The animal dove and Enzo followed.
At a depth of about 12 meters, trapped in an abandoned net, there was another dolphin. Enzo quickly asked his daughter to grab the diving knives.
Soon, the two of them managed to free the dolphin, which, at the end of the ordeal, emerged, issued an "almost human cry" (describes Enzo). (A dolphin can stay under water for up to 10 minutes, then it drowns.)
The released dolphin was helped to the surface by Enzo, Rosana and the other dolphin. That’s when the surprise came: she was pregnant!
The male circled them, and then stopped in front of Enzo, touched his cheek (like a kiss), in a gesture of gratitude and then they both swam off.
Enzo Maiorca ended his speech by saying: “Until man learns to respect and speak to the animal world, he can never know his true role on Earth.”
THIS IS AWESOME!
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: Actor Michael Imperioli says he's "decided to forbid bigots and homophobes" from watching his work following Supreme Court ruling.
“I’ve decided to forbid bigots and homophobes from watching The Sopranos, The White Lotus, Goodfellas or any movie or tv show I’ve been in,” Imperioli said in the caption of a post on his Instagram page Saturday, adding “Thank you Supreme Court for allowing me to discriminate and exclude those who I don’t agree with and am opposed to. USA! USA!” He wrote.
The actor, best known for his roles in the Emmy-winning HBO dramas “The Sopranos” and Season 2 of “The White Lotus,” posted a screenshot of a news report with a headline that read, “Supreme Court protects web designer who won’t do gay wedding websites.”
In the comments section, Imperioli continued to express his fury with the ruling by saying, “hate and ignorance is not a legitimate point of view.”
“America is becoming dumber by the minute,” he said in another comment.
Smash the 💙 if you appreciate Michael Imperioli for STANDING UP for Human Rights! 🏳️🌈
