Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

I said this during Covid- it was a test of how well or how poorly society could cooperate for climate change mitigation and we failed miserably.
If there's one thing Covid should have demonstrated to everyone, it's that there are lots of people who would rather put their own communities & families at risk, would literally rather *die*, than submit to the call for solidarity. It's that repellant to them.

Thanks to solar, America is seeing growth in power supply, jobs, and investment across the country.
The Senate shouldn't throttle this growth. Tell them to keep supporting energy dominance. solarpowersamerica.org/campaign/def...

You guys liked my soda bottle analogy when talking about ATMOSPHERIC CAP.
It's a warm layer of air in the low levels of the atmosphere that stops storms from forming. Like a soda bottle cap. Break the cap, initiate storms. You don't, they never form.

Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.
Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Marc Elias is a fucking legend. And this is brilliant.
If I could speak to the heads of big law firms, I would ask: Is the risk of losing some clients worth betraying your oath to the rule of law?
To everyone nodding but refusing to take a stand, I say: You are ignoring Martin Niemöller’s message. It is you that Martin Luther King Jr. was condemning.

Trump is coming for art and culture because he knows how important it is to our advancing of inclusive culture!! Do not obey and withdraw from the arts. Make MORE ART AND MUSIC. It’s never been more important than now!!!
Deborah Rutter was fired this week after a decade as president of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
She says the center worked hard to expand its audience by broadening the programming, inviting "all manner of arts and artists to our stages. ... I pray that that can be sustained."

Been watching Vietnam, The War That Changed America on Apple TV. I have to say… what’s most strikingly different from then and now (aside from being at war) is that there was enormous activism and protest fed by art and music in lockstep. open.spotify.com/track/1qRA5B...

Asheville has drinking water in our pipes for the first time since the storm hit 53 days ago.
Our city leaders worked their asses off for this. We are so grateful for the many helpers in our area. ❤️

I made a thing!
I was playing around with the AT protocol and as a little experiment I made a website that visualises activity around Bluesky: nightsky.hctr.dev
It listens to all new posts and shows them as little stars across a night sky 🌃
Every star is someone, somewhere, posting something

Watching people try to explain Trump’s win is understandable but exhausting. There’s not one explanation. There are hundreds and maybe thousands, and they’re all correct.
