COP28 is now on the verge of complete failure. The world desperately needs to phase out fossil fuels as quickly as possible, but this obsequious draft reads as if OPEC dictated it word for word. It is even worse than many had feared. It is “Of the Petrostates, By the Petrostates…
1/ THREAD: During Pride Month, we'll highlight LGBTQ+ reporters & media outlets & their accomplishments. We start with @nlgja, a journalist-led association that works to advance fair & accurate coverage of LGBTQ+ communities & issues. #PRIDE nlgja.org/about/mission-…

FACT: 712,000 D.C. residents — the majority of whom are Black & Brown — live in the shadow of our Capitol yet do not have equal access to it. This is wrong and unjust. #DCStatehood is a racial justice issue. Join @51for51 @ACLU_DC to make it happen.
Excited to announce that I've joined the board of the News Literacy Project -- a great organization with a critically important mission! Looking forward to working with this fantastic team bit.ly/2McptIE
People keep attempting to otherize QAnon adherents as inherently dumb, low class, and automatically mentally ill. Radicalization can affect anyone, especially those longing for identity or answers in a difficult time.

"Shitshow" is one word.
The amount of QAnon merchandise on @amazon is truly disgraceful. The company is not only amplifying and legitimizing a dangerous, cult-like conspiracy movement, they're profiting from it.
