Oh wow. I'd not logged into twitter for months. I curiously explore around, weeding through wreckage of broken password recovery and degraded UI scaling... Ah, yes. I see some faint activity! Like a digital Colosseum. It's marvelous lurking around vestiges of ancient ideologies.

We continue to face unprecedented droughts, wildfires, and flooding. All the while, our leaders and media pundits continue to spout contradictions that reinforce confusion. It isn't easy to know...

Here we go, sliding down the slope... brand new report from WWF: global biodiversity dropped by a stunning 68% since the '70s. That means that two thirds of all species on this planet have died. > theguardian.com/environment/… #biodiversity #wwf #sustainability #systemic #sid
