Grid scale batteries are changing our electricity system. Excellent new visual story on batteries in FT today shows just how far this technology has evolved.

Fasten your seatbelts, this is just the beginning.

A quick look at the front pages in the local shop.

"Detainees," "prisoners," or not mentioned at all.

Palestinians can't be hostages, apparently

Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

Three persons in inflatable frog costumes. One of them is holding a nicely painted sign with two little cartoon frogs holding hands, below the text "FROGS TOGETHER STRONG"

Today, The Word for World: The Maps of Ursula K. Le Guin opens at AA Gallery in London! Curated by Sarah Shin and Harriet Jennings, the exhibition presents a selection of Ursula's maps, including some that have never been exhibited before.

A photo of the entrance to The Word for World exhibition, with two banners hanging vertically down outside the doorway to a brick building with white-paned windows. A row of bicycles are parked in front. The banners are purple and white and say the name of the exhibition and Ursula K. Le Guin's name.

A cord-wrapped rock rests on a vivid blue background next to a map of and program for The Word for World exhibition.

A stack of copies of The Word for World book, which shows the title in vivid blue against a black cloth cover.

It’s tradition that when you see the frogs, you show them respect 🫡

(Someone should do the Creed cut with the footage)

My friends and I have felt it for a long time. Alcohol is too expensive in pubs, and far *far* too cheap in supermarkets.

Fuelling alcoholism and killing pubs all in one.

I used to work for a company called GameTap, we were probably the first "Netflix for games," started around 2006. It didn't go well. I used to think the idea was ahead of its time, and maybe it was, but I also think times have changed and this no longer makes sense. 🧵

Hmm. Not sure what's up with a lot of otherwise attractive-looking TTRPG kickstarters deciding to not tell me much about the game, to the point I can't back it. Is the wisdom that if your wordcount is too big, you'll drive people away?
