thanks so much to Abby for texting me “EXPLAIN THIS”
I am exactly the right person to ask because of course my parents were in it
fun fact: technically due to some long-overlooked loophole they are still technically the only people allowed to ride a horse into a church

This is huge: For the first time since the early 1970s, coal power generation has fallen in both China & India.
It undercuts claims that decarbonisation is pointless while they expand coal. Renewables are no longer just adding capacity — they’re displacing coal.

someone is cataloging antichrist evidence, right??
Every couple of weeks we get a different description of the apparently awful stench coming off our necrotic president and I think it's high time the media nail down exactly what kind of rotten meat covered in women's perfume he actually smells like.

Denmark had a territorial dispute with Canada for nearly 50 years and all that happened was a periodic exchange of alcohol between the countries. Only Trump could piss off the Danes enough for them to deploy their military.

!["I was never hit, but I know plenty of people who were, and they don't really bitch about it now. It's different if you get the shit kicked out of you, but the odd slap? I know plenty who don't care."
The actor then shockingly admitted that he had "smacked [his] kids," and to make matters worse, even detailed that "they were very young" when he did so:
"I have smacked my kids. When they were very young. I smacked my kids, yes. And it's not like a victory. It's not, 'Oh, I must be doing something right!' But I have done it. When it is route one to something they need to understand and I cannot rationalise with them. Also I was impatient and at the end of my rope."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4i4o6yat3t67oqeno77ntxzk/bafkreihfpvhh3gfv3zoxra5otrhdonyznrclxgagxsgo4w6dzjuzeeonxe@jpeg)

as usual this did not work, nor did "do something you want to do only slightly less than you don't want to do the thing", but "take your ADHD meds and finish the five-minute task you've been procrastinating on all day" remains undefeated as a tactic
Unsurprisingly, procrastinating all day has not made the thing I need to do spontaneously resolve itself. Maybe if I procrastinate another half hour it will?
