British Columbians: seeking recs for Victoria and Vancouver pls thx

Research published in Nature Geoscience has found that polymetallic nodules—the subject of highly controversial plans for deep sea mining for technology metals—are a source of oceanic oxygenation.

The paper suggests the nodules electrolyse seawater due to their positive charge (up to 0.95V). These geological deposits, formed over millenia and now sought after for their battery metals, are already producing electrical phenomena with an ecological value.

you can cite the deep magic to me if you want. i was there when it was written but I like hearing it from someone else's perspective. it's pretty cool that you're a witch, too.

Project 2025 will have extensive impacts on lands, waters, wildlife and tribes in the West.

In fact, the entire energy section was written by Kathleen Sgamma, of oil and gas industry group Western Energy Alliance.

Here are some highlights:

-Expanding oil and gas extraction onshore and off
-Delisting grizzlies, wolves
-Un-protecting wetlands from farmers
-Increasing timber sales on public lands
-Moving the BLM (again) and the American Indian office to the West

As the grad student in the relationship I so rarely get to be the one bringing financial benefits to the household so that's nice but god I don't want to make a thing of it

Dog, US politics 

My dog is still shitting her brains out today, in a compelling effort to make literal the political shit show of this weekend (I was no joke cleaning dog shit off my pants when I found out the news yesterday)

the only voice on it at the moment is my own, but the memorial is designed to receive contributions from the world

https://contribute.gaza.memorial/

the idea is to record the names of the dead of gaza in all the voices and accents of the world. a small gesture of global solidarity with the oppressed in the face of zionism and the attempted erasure of Palestine.

if you feel moved to participate, the memorial will be more complete with your voice, and i would appreciate it greatly.
