Brighton supporter, interested in renewable energy and battery technology. Deeply uninterested in political argument. Bit of an idiot, doesn’t get invited to many parties. Display name may change as mood dictates.

@bbcnewsnight.bsky.social please tell BBC News we’re sick of 4 MP Party Reform being rammed down our throats daily with drivel like this👇🏼report

The @libdems.org.uk have 72 MPs, Greens 4, SNP 9 but they don’t get a look in 🤷🏼‍♂️

Soon BBC News will report what Farage has for breakfast 🙄
Get ready for fracking, Reform UK tells energy firms
The party is serious about going after shale gas - but critics argue it's too difficult and costly.

this is a super normie riff I know ok. but the idea occurred to me at a traffic light and I had to work it up, and I thought some people would enjoy it, so here
Anti-woke Jesus stopped by the well on His way to Jerusalem and there he met a woman who had five husbands. You are a low value female, He said to her. Men's value goes up as they age Men and women value different things. I can get any woman I want. You must be the prophet, said the woman at the well, rolling her eyes. Anti-woke Jesus made His way to the temple and there he saw the money-changers, trading temple coin for local currency, any denomination, never failing to skim something off the top for themselves. The free market has liberated more people than any force in human history, proclaimed anti-woke Jesus; the spirit of the entrepreneur is alive and well in Jerusalem. Truly this Man is the son of God, said the money-changers. Anti-woke Jesus wanted a little time to Himself, and withdrew by boat to a quiet place. Five thousand people sought Him out, and it grew late. Send these people away, said His disciples, they don't have anything to eat and we have only five loaves and two fishes. Hearing this, Anti-woke Jesus addressed the crowd: Fuck you, freeloaders! Everything I have I had to work for! And the people were amazed at how He spoke, beatific, radiant, anti-woke.

“We've arranged a global civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces.”

Most national leaders in the world are all-in on clean energy.

India announced in July that it achieved 5 years early its 2030 goal of 50% clean generation capacity.

Wind, solar & battery storage skyrocket globally.

Why?

Low cost! National support!!

the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back

Buried in The Observer yesterday was this: UK police knocking on doors demanding details of social media accounts of people, to pass to a foreign government, simply because they happen to live near where a US politician wanted to have a holiday observer.co.uk/news/nationa...
“We have had the police knocking on every door,” said a dog walker and resident of Dean, as a helicopter buzzed overhead. “They wanted the names of everybody living there and details of their social media. I know several people refused. We asked them if they were protecting us, or Vance. At least they were honest and said it is for him and that it will all be passed on to the American security people.”

Keir Starmer: you are actually the leader of the Labour Party, so stop letting your every utterance and decision to be influenced by what Reform voters think. I don't give a fuck what Reform voters think. Deliver Labour policies, you fanny.

Genuinely incredible that we've basically surrendered the phone call to scammers, and despite all major parties loudly announcing, they're tough on crime that no one is interested in campaigning on it.

OK, here is your one-minute primer on the whole concept of "trickle down economics," from the obituary of Fred Smith, the founder of Fedex.

I mean, if you still can't see it, I have no hope for you.

Tesla FSD 13.2.9 will still run a kid down while illegally blowing past a stopped school bus with red lights flashing and stop sign extended.

Elon Musk how many kids does FSD need to run over before you fix this?

This season is weird.
Five leagues within a league.
Gaps of 6+ points between 2nd and 3rd, 7th and 8th (8 points), 12th and 13th, 17th and 18th (15 points).
No title race, no relegation doubts.
Europe still possible after three defeats and two draws. #BHAFC
