Acutely aware of our planetary predicament of accelerated warming and ecological collapse, amidst the 6th, great mass extinction event. It’s global hospice time. Doing my best to retain my sanity + stay calm while surrounded by hopiumists. Love 💕

Some say early 2030s. Others say 2028. But the math says it already happened in February, 2026. The Climate 8-Ball says there will not be a year in the next 100 years with a temperature anomaly less than 1.5°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline.

Breaking News! Code: Hot! The Nino 3.4 SST-anomaly is rising fast, now at 2.89°C above the 1991-2020 baseline. The all-time daily peak (3.03°C, Nov. 19, 2015) is within reach in a few days. The Climate 8-Ball is sober, hasn't had a drink, waiting for the Jack of Hearts.

To get a bit more signal and a bit less noise, here are the global sea-surface temperatures, averaged by decade since the decade 1980-1989. What do you think the 2030s will look like? The 2040s?

The attack in international waters off Crete, the violent assault and arrest – including the kidnapping and torture of two participants – of flotilla members indicates Israel’s growing spread of military operations.

I expect when the inevitable blue ocean event does happen, most of humanity will have no idea it’s happened nor its significance

April 2026 Arctic sea ice volume was about 18,500 km³. If strong melting (18,000 km³) will take place over the next few months, as can be expected due to El Niño, a Blue Ocean Event will occur and virtually all Arctic sea ice volume will be gone in Sept 2026. arctic-news.blogspot.com/2026/05/arct...

It just never ends. The Trump administration has officially scheduled an auction for drilling rights in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Companies can bid for the right to drill in ANWR starting June 5.

i’ve been asked a few times recently about why it’s so important to me as a journalist to describe things plainly—like referring to the planned ICE warehouses as concentration camps. seeing the term used in a letter to the secretary of defense is proof that journalists’ word choices have impact.

Breaking News! Code UFB! Global sea surface temperatures continue breaking daily records, with Mar. 23 having a preliminary SST of 21.141°C, ahead of the previous daily record of 21.118°C set in 2024. This graph shows how fast SSTs are rising compared to pre-2023 temperatures.

They’re getting away with kidnapping people who have already had to prove their legality to travel into the US. Not sure if this family were leaving. If so why would they kidnap her? Oh yeah, they get paid for every person taken in.

Like, the arrivals area of a commerical airport is one of the few places in America where you can be confident that 100% of the people there have the government’s formal approval to be there.
