The Administration is restricting new clean energy supplies from coming online and making clean energy more expensive with taxes and tariffs, all while AI is spiking electricity demand. The Administration is causing electricity bills to rise. It's a crisis. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

big late breaking news: the market monitor for the largest energy grid in the u.s., covering much of the midwest and mid-atlantic, has called to block new data centers connections to the grid, saying current course of growth assures regular blackouts
No more PJM data centers unless they can be reliably served: market monitor
The PJM Interconnection’s market monitor urged the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to rule that large data centers can only come online if the grid operator can still meet reliability metrics.

If you want to pull your hair out, watch A Merry Little Ex-Mas on Netflix

🤩 Alicia Silverstone talks about heat pumps! And her home battery saves the day in a storm!

🤬 She’s a stereotypical shrill environmentalist who loves Al Gore & nags her kids about taking long showers & wanting new clothes

Why does every local business set up an email address, put it on their website & business cards, make sure everyone has it, and then absolutely never check it

Meanwhile American media thinks its job is to explain why it’s OK that the Republicans got away with it, again
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

My local Gannett/private equity owned paper is now 90% local business ads … and they’re paywalled

To my fellow old white men of Generation Lead: Do not start with The Kids Today. Their brains work 5x faster than ours, and they don't instantly fly off the handle from the heavy metal poisoning. They will end you. Just walk away. See also: MAGA guy who got his glasses stolen at No Kings.

Massachusetts Democrats wondering why climate pollution from vehicles keeps going up
November 25, 2025 at 7:37 PM
The people who own & run the clean energy industry see themselves as much more closely aligned with oil & gas than with enviros/climate activists/The Left

Go to any clean energy conference/trade show & it’s 95% white men in suits
Honestly, it is pretty striking to me that US clean power lobby groups have not only welcomed this, but actively specified in their responses that they WELCOME more fossil fuel growth - eg, Jason Grumet from the American Clean Power Association

One hell of a quote

"Another reporter noted she was not yet born when that vote occurred"
It shows how out of touch House Speaker Ron Mariano is that he acts like 1994 was just a few years ago.

Democrats should campaign on not letting wealthy criminals buy their way out of prison

The audience for the absolute dumbest "we should get rid of these new fangled light bulbs" and "we should make the kids pull up their pants" editorials isn't working class voters in Ohio diners

It's billionaires, as Jeff Bezos is currently proving at his daily newsletter to Donald Trump
At this point, the Washpost edit page is just trolling its readers.

This is today's actual house editorial.

What's amazing is Republicans will admit the US military is a taxpayer-subsidized protection racket for oil companies ... but Democrats won't

“Poached”

The doctors complained about working conditions & left for higher pay

“Poached” is a tell that our media sees itself as the voice of the horrible profiteering bosses, not the workers, or even the bosses who value their workers
Beth Israel has poached at least 18 Mass General Brigham primary care clinicians, worth potentially millions in business - The Boston Globe
MGB says the latest departures represent "a small number" of its primary care providers, and vows to help patients with the transition.

The entirety of America is built around enabling the false fantasy that anyone could be a billionaire ... when our actual billionaires are the most broken, horrible humans living the saddest, loneliest lives
Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

Blue states need to stop paying federal taxes, today
The Trump administration has denied another request from Illinois to assist in the state’s recovery from severe flash floods in late July, despite a recent assessment detailing the widespread damage and financial cost of the storms.
Administration again denies FEMA disaster relief for Illinois, Pritzker says
Officials in jurisdictions led by Democrats have viewed the denials of aid as politically driven.
