I have a 9-5 job and my roommate doesn’t, which means our schedules not entirely aligned. They often stay up until 2-3am talking on the phone. We live in a very quiet neighborhood and our rooms are directly adjacent, and as a result I can hear them very clearly. I usually have to ask them to quiet down and they do, but I nonetheless can usually still hear them. I often feel exhausted because of this. My job has been quite stressful recently and I feel like my wellbeing is plummeting because of these factors.

They claim that, because they’re already talking as quietly as they can, I should use earplugs or headphones to deal with it.

I want for them to finish their calls much earlier but their friends apparently can’t make that work. I feel like I’m going crazy with lack of sleep, am I the asshole?

“Non-carbon emitting energy projects are positive advancements our state and country needs, but not at the cost of our traditional grounds and resources,” Yakama Nation officials wrote in an emailed statement to HCN and ProPublica. “Yakama Nation supports responsible energy development efforts. The Badger Mountain project, and the developer’s approach to advancing the project, fall far short of responsible energy development.”

We can’t let the transition to renewables be about corporate domination of people and land, it does not have to be this way

“The most recent threat to our remaining native forest birds is a direct result of global climate change.

As temperatures have warmed, non-native mosquitos are encroaching into higher elevations than before and breaching the last bastions of native forest birds. These mosquitos carry avian malaria and avian pox – diseases that are decimating some of the remaining populations of native forest birds.”
