Do you think we can get them to pay for some school busses for the kids? 🙄 FFS.

Nothing better than those happy, rumbly purrs. What a sweet boy. I miss mine still and it has been almost six years.

Simon, you shouldn’t share your new carbon offset business idea so publicly like this.

Isn’t this the line we were sold about crypto? And now some of them are making more on voluntary curtailment than on the crypto itself?

That’s what I’m saying!

I’ve been on a one-woman crusade against shitty reporting about US OSW projects by calling them out on LinkedIn. It seems to be working? All it takes is one slapdash, first out of the gate article with a misleading headline, and other reporters just repeat the bullshit.

From a personal observation, a lot of the homes near wind farms are in rural, low-income areas and aren’t in great shape. I know of a situation where a home bought out by a wind farm due to health complaints was found to have very high levels of CO, arsenic, and radon.

What a cool poster

Came here to say this. 💯

Literally the first thing I saw.

You’ll pry the horn section from my cold, dead hands. Long live funk.

The kicker is that any federal employee who strikes is barred from ever being employed by or holding office in the federal government. This provision also applies to anyone who plots to subvert the government. 🤔

You sure can! You can also obstruct from within in so many ways.

Consistency of employment rules, promotions, compensation, etc. There’s an entire independent federal agency that negotiates with federal worker unions. It’s called FLRA. Helps keep some from getting better deals than others due to nepotism, inequity, etc.

I’d like to credit my doctorate in general knowledge from Podcast University. I consume a pathological amount of audio information.

They do have unions that undertake collective bargaining, but they can’t strike.
