Friends! I'm selling signed copies of my new book, Short Circuiting Policy, to support my local bookstore @chaucersbooks during this hard time. I've got 100 copies to sell.

Can the power of #climatetwitter + #energytwitter sell these books? LET'S DO THIS.

Special thanks to @OUPPolitics which gave Chaucer's a great discount on the books. That means every copy you buy goes a *long* way to supporting this local bookstore. Thanks friends!
If you are wary of using a google form (note: I am the person with the information -- just me!) you can alternatively email me your shipping information and venmo me money and I will pay the store on your behalf. The details are on the Google form. Thanks!
UPDATE! We still have 70 more books to sell. Buy a book, help a local bookstore!

Amazing! We are halfway there! We've sold a lot of books, friends, and it will help support this local bookstore. Just 50 more to go! Thanks for all the support!
Well this is cool: we're 70% of the way through, friends! Just 30 more books to sell. Thanks for sharing the link, or buying a signed copy and supporting this local bookstore. I think we will sell out soon! A little bit of positivity today!

Well we almost sold out of all the books yesterday! Still got around 15 signed copies of Short Circuiting Policy that you can buy to support @chaucersbooks.

Thanks for all the support! This has been a beautiful thing, friends. ❤️

Well friends, we have done it! In just over 24 hours we are sold out of books! Thanks so much to everyone who bought a copy or shared the link. This will be a great thing for @chaucersbooks!

For those who bought a copy: Stay tuned! Will take a bit of time. Thank you!
And if you missed out, and would still like a copy, you can buy one from Oxford directly. Or else, the best thing to do is get an ebook. Here are the links!

Climate is the unity issue for the Democratic party. It's also a key wedge issue to take voters away from Trump.

Great polling + research from @DataProgress @b_schaffner + Laurel Bliss. Excellent reporting from @mattyglesias. vox.com/2020/4/2/21201…
"We are witnessing before our eyes a live demonstration of the perils involved in ignoring scientific expertise when it happens to be inconvenient and the value of preparing in advance for potential problems in the future." -@mattyglesias on climate

Yet another brilliant and timely intervention by @SeanMcElwee who is consistently doing top research and polling on climate change with @DataProgress.

Climate change is the unity issue for the Democratic party. And the wedge issue with Trump.

I have walked half of the 5 miles that @drvox is covering daily. And I'm here to report: it's a lot of walking.

Who wants to take the Roberts walking challenge with me?
Three-fifths of the way there! Let's DO THIS!
I'm rounding up! That was hard. On the other hand, check out how much more I walked today than the rest of the days this week! #winning

Is your utility a climate denier? Just like fossil fuel companies, many electric utilities promoted denial and delay. I dig into the history.

Check out this excerpt from my book, Short Circuiting Policy, on @WeAreDrilled.

During his speech to a veterans group in Kentucky, Trump -- seemingly joking but who can be sure -- talks about giving himself the Medal of Honor. I'm surprised his bone spurs didn't flare up while doing so.
Trump jokes about obliterating the line between campaign rallies and official White House events. American taxpayer dollars paid for Trump's trip to Kentucky, yet he's using it to deliver a campaign speech. It's not supposed to work that way.
For second time today, Trump threatens to release ISIS fighters in Europe.

I've been an event manager for two large independent bookstores for over four years, and I get asked all the time about what is the best way to reach out to your local indie. I'm starting a thread below containing some of my best tips!
If you're local to the bookstore, make sure you mention that in the FIRST sentence in your email to the store or event manager. We will almost always jump at an event if you live in our town!!
Don't just stop in and ask for the event manager, even though that seems like the best option. We are usually juggling 1,000 tasks and personally, a well-organized email is so, so much better.

Do you believe in 📈 progress? Here's why you're wrong.

(A thread)
1/ The world is more materially abundant than ever, we’ve eliminated several diseases, lifted millions out of poverty.

Yet, people aren’t reporting higher levels of meaning or happiness than before.
2/ Why is this happening? Rising income or material abundance does not automatically lead to a higher satisfaction.

And not just at a global level, but also at a personal level. Why?

1/ I finished @nntaleb's new #book Skin in the game, and here are my learnings, insights and notes.

Warning: this thread is going to be huge.
2/ Human systems are systems within systems, interacting in complex ways. No article / paper / logic can capture all interactions of such systems and their evolution over a non-trivial amount of time.

So fear one shot, large scale interventions (such as invasions, UBI, CRISPR)
3/ People with fuck you money should call out famous or powerful people when they are wrong
