NEW ANALYSIS: UK household electricity bills have risen over the last 5 years.
BUT: Despite frequent claims that net zero is to blame: 2/3 of the increase is because of high gas prices shows new @ukerc.bsky.social report.
Arguably without renewable energy the UK would see even higher bills today.

The 2nd single from our new record “I’m Not Happy And That’s On You Three” is out today - It’s called “First Time I’ve Felt Anything For A While” & features Jesse Matthewson of @kenmodeofficial.bsky.social on vocals. So happy & grateful to have Jesse on this track with us!

This thread has given me a sliver of hope back. Good people doing good in the world. Brave folks.
I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

I can't access my DMs on this milky mayonnaise-too-spicy website without verifying my age but because this government is so inconsistent with it's authoritarianism I can merrily head over to Twitter The Website Formerly Known As Twitter and look at child abuse images all day unfettered.

hey remember when a bunch of middle-aged drunk korean lawmakers climbed the locked gates to the national assembly to hold an emergency session after the president gave illegal orders to the military, all of which ended with said president being sentenced to prison

I’m fascinated by 40+ year olds who come to concerts and just talk the whole way through.
Dude sitting behind me taking very loudly so I ask him to lower his chattiness beneath the music. He goes, “relax dude it’s a concert.” And I said, “yes. We came to listen to music and not you.”
People suck

I've just seen the sales figures for Walliams. My God. I consider this tantamount to neglect. And we wonder why children are reading for pleasure less and less. When we feed them this crap??

I think the funniest thing to me is that the people who are working to create an Artificial General Intelligence is that it’s a bunch of libertarians who have never realised that what makes us smart as humans is community, society, empathy. The things they find an anathema.

Astonished at the number of creative intelligent discerning people who casually use “I asked Chat GPT” when talking about their daily lives.
AI is bad, the work of bad people, who hate you, normalised with bad intent.
You wouldn’t say “I wrote to the Daily Mail”
I wish people had more shame.
