Induction hobs have been around for decades. As written before, I've had one for at least 25 years. Small portables ones have been for sale at IKEA for many years. Pair it with rootfop solar (+ battery, ideally), or, soon in the UK (but already elsewhere) with plug-in solar! bsky.app/profile/anni...

TORNADOES! Powerful ones. Be alert.

Climate chaos.

The eternal return of President Trump is a sign of our national sickness, and a recent Pew Research Center study shows us exactly what that sickness is. We despise each other, and demagogues rise when hatred increases. It’s as predictable as night following day.@

The discount on Urals crude versus Brent has shrunk to zero. Russia's windfall now exceeds anything we saw in 2022 after the Ukraine invasion. Recent US sanctions waivers have destigmatized Russian oil and give Putin a huge windfall. Terrible for Ukraine... robinjbrooks.substack.com/p/a-huge-win...

Thinking about how Hawaii also gets most of its *electricity* from petroleum. That ought to be inexcusable even in peacetime. Our sustainable geothermal power should be the envy of the world.

This was the last view from the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility on top of Mount Kea, Hawaii before the power went out Friday. I've never seen this much snow on the cam and I've also never seen the cam go down. 54,000 ppl are without power in Hawaii this morning.

Why are people flying?? Felon47 has the real possibilty of doing more to fight climate change than any leader except Xi. His methods are horendous but the end result is collapsed economies, limited travel, reduced world population

“The Attorney General…acts as the President’s ‘chief law enforcement officer,’” Roberts wrote. Incorrect and incompetent. Dangerous. Violation of the Constitution. The Court is so sullied by corrupt behavior that it is now imperiling its own corrupt ends.

Hegseth is a war criminal. No hyperbole. Fact.

We're closing out Pi Day Week of Action by endorsing these pro-science leaders for state, local, and municipal offices. As this administration enacts anti-science policies, we need to elect STEM candidates who will lead with evidence, not ideology. #ElectScientists

The only true energy independence rests in freedom from oil.

ExxonMobile made nearly $29 billion last year, while Chevron’s net income was $12.48 billion. Profits at both companies were lower than the previous year, thanks to a drop in oil prices. But that was before the war in Iran. #TrumpSick gift: share.inquirer.com/822tmx

“As more revelations come out in the Epstein files and as the chaos gets unleashed in the world by this current administration, it feels like they continue to stamp the ‘trans hate’ button harder and harder.” - @erininthemorning.com

@clientearth.bsky.social’s new groundbreaking lawsuit against real estate corporation Cushman & Wakefield is making headlines. 📰 If this lawsuit is won, it will set a precedent that ignoring climate risk isn’t just bad for workers and the planet, it’s against the law. #GreenSky

Congratulations to President Trump for making the most powerful possible case for green energy and for the Chinese renewables and auto industries.

The orange calls Xi for help

“Tonight, we received messages from U.S. President Donald Trump through the Omani mediator, asking us to negotiate a ceasefire." Did he really? I doubt he knows. Somebody did. Probably. #TrumpSick

Crackplant Coleus shot sometime before 2018.

The planet is overheating. Why is the news looking away? Since 2021, global media coverage of climate change has dropped 38 percent. Blame wars, political chaos, and Jeffrey Epstein. ~ Grist grist.org/language/glo...

"It was a jaw-dropping expansion of authorities that could end up forcing countless ordinary Americans to secretly help the government spy on their fellow citizens." Why are we so shocked that actual people would do this? We who bomb children. We can't wrap our brains around how dangerous we are.

1) $1M is performative. Mutual aid has moved more money than you without the bureaucratic bullshit. 2) Stop treating this as zero sum. There is NO reason you can’t do a delay on evictions AND cash aid at the same time. It allows the cash to get where it’s needed. 3) You damn well know this.

We heard loud and clear from homeless shelters and affordable housing providers around the city the best route to move forward was immediate cash assistance to help neighbors stay in their homes—not blunt measures that put people greater into debt. We’re doing that with $1M in rental assistance.

Ain’t nobody coming over here to watch soccer.

Trump is in a snit with Spain bc its president Pedro Sánchez has funny ideas about rule of law. And Trump just took back South Korea's missile defense bc he needs it bc he started a stupid war of choice in the Middle East. It's only going to get worse from here.

Mines don’t need to sink tankers. They just need to make tankers uninsurable.

Sidewalk Snapdragons (Antirrhinum majus) shot in 2018.

Pentagon spending tied to the conflict $2 billion per day. The war is also chewing through extraordinarily expensive hardware. Three F-15E fighter jets shot down by friendly fire in Kuwait alone are estimated to cost roughly $100 million, according to lawmakers briefed on the losses. #EpsteinWar

“No stupid rules of engagement” means “colossal negligence,” “failure in fundamental targeting doctrine and standards.” i.e., willful misconduct. Murder. Trump and Hegseth are culpable. They must be held to account. #EpsteinWars
