This is a great example of how the economics of electricity can be completely switched around.

Energy is one of the most abundant things in the entire universe. The easier we make it for people to gather and store the electricity all around us, the better for our climate and our wallets.
Turning electric economics upside down, Toronto man paid to charge his EV at home
“When I heard that you can actually make money charging your EV, I said, ‘OK, let’s do this,” Urs Villiger says.

Read One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This
"It's difficult to think in celebratory terms when I have spent two years seeing what shrapnel does to a child's body. It's difficult to think in celebratory terms when I know that my tax money is doing this."

- Omar El Akkad, winner of the 2025 National Book Award
Omar El Akkad spoke after winning the 2025 National Book Award for nonfiction for “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This,” his book on the genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. He accepted the award at a gala in New York City this week.

could ICE be considered state-sponsored terrorism?
My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Modernity is a conspiracy to replace 'thick' desires (community, craft, transcendence) with 'thin' desires (likes, sugar, dopamine). Revolt by doing something slow. Bake bread. Write a letter. Code a tool for just one person.

Why hasn't it happened yet? Where have decency and integrity gone?
I wish we lived in a land where if journalists heard the president call one of their colleges "piggy" or suggest another of their colleagues, who was butchered for what he wrote, in some way had it coming, they would close their laptops, leave as soon as possible, and ask to be reassigned.
