The big reason electricity cost so much is gas. Gas is the most expensive form of electricity generation (aside from battery) and yet often determines the price.
Tax gas exports, raise $17bn, help compensate households and also fund the transition to zero emissions

Wow, the Irish have their counts sorted by Day 3, despite having an even more complex voting system than Australia’s. Let me explain where I think the AEC is going wrong…
We may be waiting weeks for a result in the seat of Calwell – the most complex ever counted in an Australian election

AEC says they will have ‘absolute guns’ on Victorian electorate’s count after unusually large number of candidates polled a significant number of votes

The winner is clear in most House of Representatives seats, one week after the election. But with a record number of votes for minor parties and independents, Australia’s preferential voting system has been under increasing strain, with the full complexity of the counting system needed to determine the last few seats.
One seat, Calwell, may take weeks to determine and has been described by the acting deputy commissioner of the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) as “one of the most complex distributions of preferences we’ve ever done”.

WTF is wrong with Bluesky today? My Discover feed is full of shit about US television shows and some sports team called the “Habs”?
I want my nice Bluesky from last November back. You know, the one without the Americans in it.

The White House is setting conditions in the information space to justify a land invasion of Canada.
Someone needs to say it. The messaging is undeniable.
Unless the adults reenter the room, it will happen.

Can those in the know assuage my concerns: what stops BlueSky from being bought out by a tech billionaire?
Hoping it is collectively owned by its users or something. Though that is still not a guarantee.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Each year, the trans community loses too many lives, especially trans women of color, to hate and violence.
More than ever, we must stand by our trans family and support them, hold space for them, and insist the scapegoating and targeting stop.
Now.

This should also apply to the millions of Americans who have come to Bluesky from X in the last two weeks.
My feed is flooded with posts about US politics. I used to care but I don’t since Trump won a majority vote.
I came here to get away from you. From now on I just care about what I can affect.

our government seriously fucked up bad. allowing billionaires to run amok and spread mass misinformation all over the place with no regulation.
I think this is the key
we are all sitting here asking how the fuck THIS campaign - this awful fucking campaign - from a visibly declining Trump results in quite possibly not only an EC victory but a PV victory
and the answer is that most people no longer see what we see

There's obviously something so profoundly fucked about the way most people get information.
