The app for independent voices

Hallo

Today I start using Substack

I used to like Twitter but always felt very constrained by the 144 limit

This brought problems for the irony-challenged, who misunderstood a lot of what I was trying to say

This is a particular problem for me because I seem to be regarded as ‘on the left’ by people on the right, and' ‘on the right’ by people on the left

Apparently this makes me controversial, and therefore box office poison

Contrary to what some in the far-right echo chamber have been saying this week, I have not been silenced. I’m right here folks. And I am ready to get started!

I closed my X account recently. I’d love to say letting my few thousand followers there know that I was leaving for good led to an influx of new subscribers here but it didn’t. No one saw the post because the muppets at X buried it.

I’m happy to be somewhere sane.

If you’re interested in ecology, biodiversity, climate change, freshwater, join me here.

You made it, you own it

You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.

Random Table Bundle

I’ve read and analyzed every executive order signed by Trump since the inauguration, and painstakingly taken tons of notes and written a pretty okay article about it if I do say so myself. Please read it if you’re interested, my substack is and always will be 100% free, I just want to empower others with knowledge. I attempt to make some sense of loads of insanity. It’s out now.

Great discussions

Join the most interesting and insightful discussions.

Thanks for the warm welcome. Just posted something on how I’m thinking about the path before us. Looking forward to reading your thoughts and ideas.
