New tech scales way faster than old.

Solar went from 100 → 1,000 TWh in 8 years, then doubled again to 2,000 TWh by 2024—in just 3 more years. For each of the last three years, solar was the biggest source of new electricity globally. Nothing else has scaled this fast.

Record momentum for UK battery storage!

Planning approvals hitting new highs amid a surge in apps for renewables.

100+ battery storage filings April-June 2025: 8.4 GW—double last year. Year to June: 30 GW across ~400 schemes. UK needs 23-27 GW by 2030 (from 6 GW now)—if delivered, we're there.

When Trump ordered the border wall painted black to absorb the sun's heat and make climbing harder, Mexico responded by painting beautiful murals on their side

What this chart illustrates is that China is now transhipping goods through Taiwain and Vietnam to avoid higher tariffs. #TrumpTariff #EconSky

The Federal Reserve’s June 2025 Monetary Policy Report to Congress shows that the current federal funds rate (in green) aligns very closely to those prescribed by well-known interest rate rules.

Remember the wonderful Biden economy. Last January, the expected US economic growth was 2.5-3%.
But now we have the Trump economy.
Yesterday, the US Fed cut its US growth forecast from 1.7% to 1.4%, but it is likely to fall further.
Trump & his supporters are to blame.

I've never seen this method of visualisation before. It's very good.
Good visual showing the churn of UK voters since last year’s General Election.

An incredible and very funny clip. He's got nothing: no intelligence, no comprehension, no structured thought. Just the angry bitter wailing of his empty mind. What an embarrassment he truly is, and how embarrassed his advocates should be for promoting him.
The astonishing thing is how major mainstream media platforms, publishing companies etc have given this man all the rewards and platforms you might expect them to give an actual great thinker. Actually not astonishing, entirely predictable.
This is genuinely so bad, he can’t even answer basic questions from budding teen atheists lmfao. It’s like that scene in game of thrones when all the children ganged up and stabbed grand maester pycelle to death
