You know, I’ve been talking tonight with everybody I know in the energy industry about Iran, and to a man they’ve all now used the phrase β€œenergy crisisβ€œ now

In Iran, air power alone will not reshape the regime. Since WWI, dozens of U.S., Israeli & allied air campaigns have tried to force political change β€” none installed friendly governments. None! They strengthen nationalism and intensify resistance.

if you believe in any form of free enterprise at all, the idea that the Pentagon can not only cut off your contract but designate you a supply chain risk and prevent other companies from buying from you just because you won't build killbots for the government should be terrifying

If everything from an international treaty to a driver's license can be pissed on and flushed down the toilet, then what exactly are we doing here? Why am I paying taxes? Shouldn't I just stockpile food, water, and HRT and be some crazy swamp witch living off the grid?

It bothers me how nobody seems to understand that this, trans people getting booted out of the military without their contractually obligated benefits, etc. is ultimately about if the promises of the government are worth a goddamn thing as long as the Republican Party exists.

Nobody has to join the military, and the country is better off having its best and brightest work on other efforts, but there’s always a certain irony when the biggest hawks chose not to serve.

with batteries at $100/kWh and wholesale solar at $400/kW, you could buy 5 KW of solar and 15 kWh of batteries for the price of building 1 KW of this gas plant... and that’s before the cost of gas to keep the thing running

all this stuff makes much more sense if you understand β€œanti wokeness” as a general backlash to elite accountability more generally, even if you have criticisms of left wing egalitarianism bsky.app/profile/kevi...

The other of the rich men said to him "Master, what good thing shall I do and live?" He said to him "Man, perform the law and the prophets." He answered him "I have performed them." He said to him "Go, sell all that thou hast and divide it to the poor, and come, follow me."

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

Puerto Rico hasn't had reliable power in a decade.

The grid sends occasional surges through the wires that fry appliances.

Electricity rates are among the highest in the entire U.S.

Heat waves are getting intense in the summer, and outages mean A/C is no guarantee for an aging population.
