Campaigning to #decolonize the world from home in so-called CA. Start by returning the self to balance & watch wildfire spread, as nature intended, globally.

As is my August 21 tradition, I will be revisiting "Regarding Cocktails", remembering a friend, mentor and inspiration, Sasha Petraske, who died on this day 8 years ago. Wherever you are, hold a proper daiquiri high at 9pm EST in his honor. He is missed by many.


WOLF CLAN!! HELP US!! PLEASE do some things that will make the Orca Clan proud. (And stay away from shortsighted ranchers with guns!)

NEWS RELEASE: New Gray Wolf Pack Confirmed In Tulare County



COLONIAL. GREED. NON-NATIVE INVASIVES! HUMANS are not the problem. COLONIALISM is. #DECOLONIZE (before it's too late!)

Colonial greed transformed the wetlands of Lāhainā. This included water diversions for sugar plantations & land use change from agricultural production to livestock grazing. The same invasive grasses that white sugar barons planted in 19 & 20c exploded like napalm in high winds.



This type of organization and self-determination needs to be replicated the world over! #Decolonize NOW!! (Before it's too late.)

20 years since the Zapatista Caracoles in Chiapas, Mexico began! Collective organization & Indigenous self-determination! ❤️🖤☀️🔥🐌 #EZLN🎥:@GranOM @Bungalodub



Nowhere is it more clear right now how dire the situation on earth is. #Decolonize is not just a hashtag. It's an urgent #CallToAction. #FireRx is #LandBack in action. We either burn on our terms or nature's. We know which we prefer. #LahainaFires

I got ahold of some open satellite data from @Maxar and made this YouTube video of the Lahaina area, showing damage block by block. Really a terrible scene, with so much trauma to come, but I am hoping this is helpful. youtu.be/U0zrM1AxsGI #Lahaina #Maui #Hawii #Fires #Damage

Street By Street Mapping of Lahaina Fire Damage



Let. The. Fires. Burn. If landowners harden their homes & use beneficial fire on their own properties, when fire inevitably visits their neighborhood, it will burn with significantly less intensity and be exponentially easier to defend against. Fire dependency is non-negotiable.

New thread on lightning busts, the resulting fires and their ecological effects. The better we fire-safe and prepare our communities, the less we have to fear the large backcountry fires that have swept California's wildlands since the dawn of time.



Facts. LOVE JB!

Still so very relevant today ~



Congrats on the quote, Z! Really appreciate everything you're doing. This is the perfect year for promoting summer burning & yet we STILL didn't get our permit, w more of the same nonsensical reasoning why not. Sacramento is saying the right things, but what about the units?!

Got some ink in this article about California's slower-than-usual wildfire season. I wouldn't say this is our "best wildfire season", though. Fires are necessary, and acres unburned this year will get fire under more severe conditions down the road. mercurynews.com/2023/07/30/why…

The UK government is attempting to block the Scottish Government from taking any action at all on independence. If you believe it is up to Scotland to decide their own future and their own independence. Show your support.

americanbar.org/groups/environ… "There is no no-fire future: there is only the opportunity to choose between beneficial fire use for lower severity wildfires and healthier ecosystems and communities, or the continued rise of destructive megafires." Burn or be burned. Easy choice.


#GoodFire is not optional. It's either GF or more of the same: environmental degradation. #JoinUs in this urgent work. In NorCal? Observe our next burn.

This. All of it. If we don't fix these glaringly obvious mistakes, how many more towns will we lose?!

Was just in Western Lassen County. It is dry in the sun, but cool in shade. Meadows are very wet, normally seasonal creeks are gushing. Weather and fuels conditions in the high country are generally still within underburning prescriptions. /1

India puts the "I" in BRICS+. The failure of the US dollar is inevitable.

As India’s population of 1.4 billion people becomes the world’s largest, its GDP is forecast to expand dramatically. Goldman Sachs Research projects India will have the world’s second-largest economy by 2075. click.gs.com/7ds5



Shame on @NewYorker. Just another capital-driven smear piece against a man who has dedicated his life to doing what's right in the face of immense and powerful opposition. Epic fail at "journalism". We see you, New Yorker.

And the bootlickers don't care because Putin is bad. Look at this travesty I saw in Sac recently... Not only a violation of the flag code, but also a violation of my eyes.

Essential conversation.

Everyone wants to talk about stolen land today, but nobody wants to talk about stolen heritage. #Landback to who? The Tribal govs & leaders who violate their own treaties & tribal constitutions to disenroll Elders, their families, & deny Children & Black Natives their heritage?
