From feminism, Fukushima, reading to exploding manure. Which reminds me... and Trump.
What you read matters more than you think.
One way to identify potential mass killers: domestic violence and grievances against women.
Women activists around the world.
My new hero, Mary Beard.
A doctor who sees how climate change is affecting our health. Records shattered.
Climate change in a nutshell: Heatwave leads to ice cream theft, flying cockroaches and exploding manure
Radiation Along Fukushima Rivers Up to 200 Times Higher Than Pacific Ocean Seabed
Pakistani doctor saves a Christian patient and has to flee for his life to the US. Where Muslims are hated. Welcome to America.
Are we in a rerun of the 1930s?
What forced-birthers are like.

A Sunday slurry
A completed survey of the southern hemisphere's Milky Way.
A solar farm built over a large reservoir... clean drinking water, solar energy... what's not to like?
Dick wars in the GOP. Because being a large dick matters apparently.
An environmental activist Berta Cáceres murdered in Honduras.
The return of DIY abortions.
A Tudor vegetable.
Still fucked at Fukushima.

The gnashing of teeth and the wailing of women...
How DARE Obama get the prisoners out of Iran using diplomacy!11!!1 We need a WAR to prove how manly we are!1!!1
The oceans are warming at a faster rate than we calculated. They are also filling up with plastic.
Nuclear gypsies: those who are attempting to clean up Fukushima.
George Washington was right.
Actually, there hasn't been a mass shooting every day in 2015.
Now they are not allowed to tell us where our meat has been raised or processed. That makes me feel so safe.
The Onion actually has a good take on the idiots in Oregon.
Quantum knots.
Monsanto Files Lawsuit to Stop California From Listing Glyphosate as Known Carcinogen

It can be measured.
Fukushima radiation reaches San Francisco and the west coast.

Giant air sucking machines and other stuff
Giant air sucking machines may be coming your way. And that's a good thing.
The abortion pill, why it works well and why it's being prevented from doing so. And why the Republicans are out of step with the rest of America. And why even talking about having had an abortion makes you a whore.
What gun shots do to a body. What a warped sense of masculinity might make someone do.
Cartoonist Sarah Anderson.
Lawrence Wilkerson talks about the USA splitting apart.
Did you know there were many more types of potatoes than what we can buy at the store?
Fukushima in pictures four years later.

Plastic radioactive oceans, no snowpack, and another end of the world is coming
Monsanto and scientists collude to push GMO on the public.
Water from Fukushima dumped into Pacific. And fracking is poisoning us all. And (youtube) our oceans are turning into plastic soup.
History of the Pledge of Allegiance.
President Obama makes the case that Republicans are un-American.
Snowpack in California is at a 500 year low.
Being a Neolithic farmer sucked. Although living right now can suck too.
Yet another end of the world is coming in late September.
George Takei explains why Kim Davis is wrong. Let this be the final statement of this idiocy. (Please!)
Response by University of Missouri Student Body President Payton Head to hateful name-calling directed at him.
836,290 deaths since 1989. If this was a disease, we'd be frantically trying to find a cure. But this number is deaths by guns. We have an answer, we just are too afraid to say it. Gun control, gun safety.
End robocalls!

Stalking women, drought, voting fraud, and guns.
Ben Carson's view of women. Stalking is not romantic.
How to understand and end California's drought.
Lion cub learning how to swim.
Dealing with the radiation fears about Fukushima.
Have self-compassion.
Kansas voting is manipulated.
President Obama is a class act. Dealing with Native Americans.
Understanding China's economic slowdown.
Ideas for dealing with oceans filled with plastic.
Stating the obvious: The States With The Most Gun Laws See The Fewest Gun-Related Deaths

Hacking, Porcupines, and Robocalls
Why hacking and invading privacy matters.
Porcupines like salt. Really like salt.
We're boiling our oceans. As well as melting all the sea ice. And killing all the fish.
Jeb Bush is meaner than he looks. And things are going to get serious.
Since Sandy Hook there have been 72 mass shootings.
Christian pastor stunned by secular Scandinavians.
How to be polite. (It may save the world.)

Whales, net neutrality, Mr. Rogers, and irradiated green tea.
Pacific whales are moving to the Atlantic. Climate change is slowing ocean currents. An excellent discussion with megadrought scientists. Costa Rica shows us how to do it.
Kochs buying the ability to pollute the planet at will.
Net Neutrality is still under attack.
How other countries view the US gun laws.
Why does the GOP want a war with Iran?
Radiation found in Japanese green tea.
Proof that playing D&D is not the cause of modern juvenile delinquency.
The wonderful Mr. Rogers.
Manly methods of dealing with bears, lightning, ice, and other manly threats.

Back to the old grind
Tracking Fukushima's contamination to US's Pacific coast
Bill Moyers does his 2014 In Memoriam. David Barry remembers 2014.
Things that people thought were real but were fake.
Our wonderful 50 states.
Eight books to lead you to enlightenment.
The NYPD has a temper tantrum.

As goes California, so goes the nation....
California oil companies are poisoning our drinking water. But wait, Obama made some of the San Gabriel Mountains a National Monument! Yet we need to watch the Pacific Ocean carefully because of Fukushima.
Global warming underestimated ... To music. The melting of Greenland. The tipping points.
For profit 'schools' getting taxpayer money.
Noah's Ark Theme Park Loses $18M In Tax Breaks Unless They Hire Atheists
Killer BBEEeeeeEEeeeessss!! (Eddie Izzard's bees.)
President Obama wants the FCC to abandon plans for tiered 'net neutrality'
Science fiction or fantasy?

Fukushima'd Monday
The horror of Fukushima keeps on giving.
Immigrant children who were sent back are being killed.
How lizards regenerate their tails: researchers discover genetic 'recipe':
George Bush.
Bank of America gets to pay back 17bn over questionable mortgages. Do they get to go back and help those people they drove out of their houses and into poverty, too?
Bigger spiders a good thing? I don't think so....
A cop discusses Ferguson and the behavior of the police.
Oh please, let this be true! The Twilight of Antonin Scalia
One half-hour to change a governor's mind about climate change. And they don't think it worked.
How much you can save when you stop buying shit.
How amazingly transparent the CIA is....
How do you pronounce pecan?
California drought, before and after comparisons.
Immigrant children who were sent back are being killed.
How lizards regenerate their tails: researchers discover genetic 'recipe':
By understanding the secret of how lizards regenerate their tails, researchers may be able to develop ways to stimulate the regeneration of limbs in humans. Now, a team of researchers from Arizona State University is one step closer to solving that mystery. The scientists have discovered the genetic “recipe” for lizard tail regeneration, which may come down to using genetic ingredients in just the right mixture and amountsLizards?... might want to be careful...

Women, grammar, and exercise!
What women were wearing when they were sexually attacked... debunking one myth about rape. And myths about birth control.
English, the language of oopses. And grammarphobia.
We're drinking the wrong kind of milk? And look! We've made a superbug to eat the supercorn!
What do you still do now that you did when you were poor?
Scars (nsfw)
No wonder I feel like California didn't have a winter! We didn't! And:
Fukushima fallout.
Elizabeth Warren and what she has done for you.
US Government to Deregulate Meat Industry
Scary scientist is scary.
Underwater archaeology.
Why this runner runs.

A new study sponsored by Nasa's Goddard Space Flight Center has highlighted the prospect that global industrial civilisation could collapse in coming decades due to unsustainable resource exploitation and increasingly unequal wealth distribution.
Noting that warnings of 'collapse' are often seen to be fringe or controversial, the study attempts to make sense of compelling historical data showing that "the process of rise-and-collapse is actually a recurrent cycle found throughout history." Cases of severe civilisational disruption due to "precipitous collapse - often lasting centuries - have been quite common."

This affects all of us who border the Pacific... and beyond.
Tepco?
We must never forget Fukushima and the lessons it has taught us. At least we can see some changing attitudes about nuclear power.
Fukushima operator may have to dump contaminated water into Pacific: As Japan marks the third anniversary of the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster, Tepco is struggling to find a solution for hundreds of thousands of tonnes of contaminated waterWhat gives you the right to poison our oceans with radioactivity? (Ignore our 'work' on the Bikini Islands.) Is this the best idea you can come up with for the continuous leaks and the huge quantity of radioactive water? Tepco, the company that has gangsters taking over contracts and hiring homeless people to work clean up? Why should we trust you when you tell us it is safe to do this?

Climate change to WWII and O'Reilly in between!
Climate change? What climate change? What climate change might unleash.
Whale graveyard in Chile. Counting whales from space.
Poor Bill O'Reilly... scared of tough wimmen. Maybe he feels like this?
Therapy dogs.
Plastic in our food... is good for us. Right? How about raw fish?
Harry Potter and the aftermath.
President Obama hanging out with scientists.
Fukushima radiation affected the USS Reagan and its crew.
Finding the forgotten Russian soldiers from WWII.

Wednesday wobbles
Paris time capsule.
Neil deGrasse Tyson and Bill Moyers.
Excellent article on the addiction of money and what it does to our society.
Never forget that George Bush's administration was both dangerous and incompetent.
War over women's rights and the whinyness of those denied. And many have noticed the similarities between the Taliban and the far right's attitudes about women and life in general.
What caused the 10 year winter back in 536AD?
Talking back to the makers of The Wolf of Wall Street.
Do not touch the Gympie Gympie tree.
We're gonna need Geiger counters to go shopping or to the beach. And if you want to not eat anything ever again, here's Dr. Helen Caldicott. At least we have UC scientists watching our kelp.
And with all that... sitting too much is gonna kill you.
