After France, Denmark is moving too: its Digitalisation Ministry plans to phase out Microsoft, switching to Linux and LibreOffice in the coming months. The goal is clear—reduce dependence on a handful of global tech giants and strengthen digital sovereignty.
Unfortunately it was a stranger at a public event. If I see them again though!
You probably got that in microplastics!
Saying mountain dew is gross. Catholics + mountain dew fans = 90% of maga.

When you write off all West Virginians you are saying you don't support Becky Pepper Jackson. I am inspired by young people here all the time. Recently I talked to a teen who realized his school isn't teaching evolution, so he started distributing zines about it.
Young folks here are fighters!
This is why the First Rule of Trans Club is you do not shut up about Trans Club, because bigots would gladly silence every damn one of us and remove us from the history books if they could.

There is only one person who gets me staring into an orb.
Dave Chappelle saying "My favorite part of my evolution was when I quit"
Me too Dave. It's a shame you came back and ruined it.

Had a nice lunch picnic, made a friend 🐍
Yes to both, it's a sparsely populated state with lots of trailers ("mobile homes") & older homes.
What a mess West Virginia's power bills are
"Yeah, we understand you want to support the coal industry, but do you want to support it to the extent that you’re OK paying twice as much as you should be for electricity?" www.insurancejournal.com/news/southea...
so just this week, Substack made this announcement, on top of promoting Andrew Tate's newsletter as their number 1 bestseller. they recently announced a polymarket partnership. and they've had a nazi problem for years. it's time to get off substack, folks.

Meanwhile there are a bunch of NIMBYs in my area currently fighting against a wind farm. They are mostly liberals and can't stand the sight of them 😮💨

With all the atrocious things happening right now in the US I worry the environment backsliding will take the longest to recover from.

"We must become less reliant on American tools and regain control of our digital destiny. We can no longer accept that our data, our infrastructure, our strategic decisions depend on solutions whose rules, pricing, evolution, and risks we do not control."
Thirty percent of all hospitals in Oregon now refuse to provide lifesaving medical treatment to trans people. Not just gender affirming care to minors. They discriminate against ALL Trans people.
When we ditch the electoral college I'll care more about my presidential vote. Hasan's vote in Cali has the same amount of ability to make an impact as mine in my deep red state - almost none, unfortunately.
No use crying over it now,but if ya do need to I guess you got a rag for it!
Yes
Kitchen towel for sale that reads "get off the couch and vote Harris for president"
Saw this in a DC bookstore yesterday. Shouldn't this at least be on clearance? Oh geez who is buying this in 2026? Is it just to sop up the tears?
In reporting this book, what most surprised you? Well, America is a wild place, and all things are possible. And just when you think you understand what West Virginia is – when you’ve typecast it – you meet someone like Lisa Marie. She’s one of the characters of the book. Here is this trans woman who is living in a holler, that you can’t find with GPS, on a mushroom farm in West Virginia. She’s doing open carry in town, which is her right, and has a lot of fascinating things to say about the world. And she’s trolling Peter Brimelow on Twitter, using jokes in Appalachian dialect, to tell him he’s not a “towner” and should leave. To me she represents that element of America that is always surprising, startling, beyond any kind of stereotyping. You could say that living on an off-grid farm and enthusiastically embracing the second amendment is as American as it gets. Absolutely. And for at least a brief moment, while I was hanging out with her, I was like: should I do this, too? I know I cannot. But she’s a real marvel.
Waking to my friends telling me that my Twitter trolling of White Nationalists and Nazis is now published in the Guardian
Goals am I right?
Denmark didn’t “transition” its grid—it replaced it.
~15% → 92% renewable electricity in 25 years.
Wind did the heavy lifting. Solar is scaling. Interconnection balanced. Flexibility solved variability.
Wind built it. Solar is scaling. Fossil lost it.
This IS system replacement. ⚡#Bettrification
I want a feed of just the rude labeled skeets!
Yep, it has a natural gas pipeline attached to it that was the biggest issue for opponents.
West Virginia had a former coal executive lead our Dept of Environmental Protection for years. He gave permit exceptions to a Rockwool plant between 2 schools and the Mountain Valley Pipeline among others.
I am terrified for our public lands.

Wishing you and yours a very merry Confederate Surrender Day.
She also writes articles with titles like "Anti-Racism Dismantles Communities, Not Oppression" to nobody's surprise.
What's that saying about well behaved women rarely making history. All my heros were powder kegs 🧨
