How sick must a man be that on the day a family loses a 35-year-old mother, daughter and sister from cancer he aggressively attacks the family with relish?

At the start of 2025, we knew this movement would play a pivotal role in the fight against authoritarianism.
Still, we’re blown away by the level of commitment and dedication you have shown throughout a difficult year.
Thank you for reminding the regime that power still belongs with the people.

Good morning and happy New Year's Eve to everyone. Time zones are so weird. Australia is already in 2026. Europe is still in 2025. And the United States is in 1933.

2025 comes to an end.
It’s been a strong year for deployment and innovation, but a worrying one for energy politics.
Moves like the US pause on offshore wind show how quickly progress can be undermined by polarised debate.
Here’s hoping 2026 brings calmer, more evidence-based energy policymaking.

Via NPR ~ Hundreds of celebrities have relaunched a committee to defend free speech that was first formed during the post-World War II Red Scare. It’s spearheaded Jane Fonda, whose father, Henry Fonda, stood against the Hollywood blacklists of the McCarthy era.

Imagine running a capital-intensive firm when the White House can suddenly threaten to shut your industry down. Wind farms today, something else tomorrow. That risk changes what gets built, where, and whether it gets built at all.

Context you rarely hear: global stocks are up about 30% over the past year. U.S. stocks? Around 18%. That means American investors underperformed the world by about 12 percentage points, even while headlines called it a “fantastic year.”

The U.S. government just banned five people from entering the country because it doesn’t like their speech. This ban, according to the State Department, is necessary to protect free speech.
If that sounds insane to you, congratulations on your reading comprehension.

looking up the source of quotes, whether for a book or a video script, is great for figuring out when a quote everyone "knows" and has repeated for ages is actually just weird bullshit someone else made up

No American president has ever named ships or institutions after himself—until now. Trump’s gold-plated presidency isn’t about strength. It’s about fear, ego, and unmistakable ignorance.
