Yesterday Alba passed away.

My dog Hank also only knew her for 2 weeks but he made her life so much better as her best friend.

It’s amazing to watch how he acted. We don’t deserve dogs… (1/7) 🧵

The UK has some of the highest energy prices in the world.

Why?

Because our wholesale electricity price is set by the most expensive source.

So even if 99% of energy used was wind or solar, and 1% was gas, we’d still pay the gas price for all of it.

There are plenty of us who share this view, Mr Tusk. We'll be back!
Donald Tusk: "I am aware this is a dream: that instead of a #Brexit, we will have a #Breturn. Perhaps I am labouring under an illusion. But I'd rather be an optimist and harbour these dreams in my heart. Sometimes they come true in politics." ~AA

Others have noted it but I will too: The big reason Bluesky is so hot right now is that the people who add value to social media - the frequent posters in specific fields - are here now, talking to each other and creating the "spectator value" that draws users and attention.

The volume of responses to this simple thread and the range of emotions detailed show that there is intrinsic worth in subjects like art.
Never accept the views of those who want to tell you what is worthy of study and what is not. They know the price of all and the value of little.
