Fossil energy is unaffordable, unhealthy, and unreliable.

It’s a shame Artemis II went to the moon when it was big and round, not a crescent like now. They could have saved so much time hopping over the thin sliver to get to the Far Side!

It’s the Olden Age

Ed Miliband has said he'll “double down, not back down” on government’s clean energy mission in the face of critics calling on him to change course

The Energy Sec said "solar panels, heat pumps and EVs are not woke, or a left-wing conspiracy, or even a Marxist plot. They're actually common sense"

I can't decide if this is a like The Secret level act of will or he just forgets the last time he tried to just stop the war

I love that every 72 hours or so Donald Trump tries to just quit the war in Iran

I’m hoping to do a video piece related to some of PeaceHealth situation down there.

That’s the one. With the baroque pastiche, The Left Handel Theorbo, provided by Michael Nyman IIRC

Richard Rodney Bennett wrote the score, obviously.

I think George Segal and Honor Blackman were in the movie.

As Raymond Chandler said, when in doubt have a man with a left handed theorbo come into the room.

The Left-Handed Theorbo is the title of a thriller. Or should be.

🚨 Left-handed theorbo alert 🚨

Some years ago I learned it stood for British or European standard in engineering products. It was considered the best you could get, often shortened to BoG standard.

Mayor Mamdani and a group of children hold hands while running through red tape in a hallway.

For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.

I’m really really trying today to, when I see a political thing I think about commenting on, instead go find some good photos I like from other photographers and reposting those. I’m trying to see if I can make social media less bad for my health

Proud mom and dad. Bill and Hillary Clinton greet daughter Chelsea at the Boston Marathon finish line.

She was absolutely my favorite actress...Exceptional in every role no matter how small or large.. gifted, talented, nuanced and versatile..

If I were a betting man I'd guess some new borderline tyrannical criminal probe against some enemy of the regime or other. But as I don't have inside information, I don't bet on prediction markets.

NHS Privatisation by Stealth: Workers Are Being Stripped of Pensions and Removed From NHS Employment Bath's Royal United Hospital is handing hundreds of NHS workers to a private equity company.

Bath's Royal United Hospital is handing hundreds of NHS staff (who fill shifts at short notice and keep wards running) to a private equity company: pensions gutted, NHS employment ended
