Three glaring holes in the Energy Minister’s Press Club speech - The Australia Institute

Energy and Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen delivered a speech titled “Australia’s energy choice in the critical decade”, but most of Australia’s energy choices didn’t even rate a mention.

The Putin dictatorship has created a category of thought crimes, and one of its victims is the father of the Russian Internet.

https://cepa.org/article/russia-jails-the-father-of-russias-internet/

Remember, Trump reveres the monster Putin, and also remember that a Trump dictatorship will be able to do this kind of thing with impunity.

The Kremlin Jails the Father of Russia’s Internet - CEPA

The regime is punishing those who built modern Russia's internet for what amounts to thought crimes, like Alexey Soldatov.

Look, there's an easy way to help convince people to support Democrats.

We care about people and try to help them.

Against the backdrop of the challenges of global warming, the Biden-Harris Administration is taking unprecedented action to confront the climate crisis. That includes investing more than $50 billion in climate resilience to help communities prepare for and recover from extreme weather events fueled by climate change.

Then, they can explain why Tim Scott deserved to be on T****'s VP short list? #Racist #Racists #CluelessRepublicans #NotAllRacistsWearSheets

"The market" is the aggregate ignorance of all its investors living on imperfect information.

#writersCoffeeClub 7/26: share a snippet of a favorite scene in your WIP.

Here's the opening of an unfinished work-in-progress, provisionally titled "Space Jesus Lion": a New Management tall tale in which Narnia is invaded by incel space crabs, told in the style of William S. Burroughs.

(Text is in the alt text as it's too long for a toot.)

It was a chilly night in November, and the snowflakes fell silently under the glow of the street lights in Kensington Palace Gardens.

In the overgrown shrubbery behind the house, three mugwumps were taking turns dry-humping the emaciated corpse of the lion who had wandered in from the ghost roads the week before.

It was supposed to be Doc Depression's turn to clean up the trash and deadfall-being winter, this had seemed like letting him off easy to Imp-but it was cold and wet, and Doc had taken one look at the dead
Panthera leo and noped right out. "That thing's got to weigh a quarter of a ton," he complained. "It's mangy and it's crawling with giant maggots. It's a public health hazard! I said I'd rake the leaves, not handle your eldritch shit." And then he sulked.

The mugwumps had turned up later and now none of the Lost Boys dared enter the garden after sunset.
