My wife and I are partners.
We share finances but split responsibilities.
One of the things she handles is our health insurance. That means the monthly premium. The phone calls. The disputes. The endless back-and-forth when the same charge magically shows up twice.

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Remember: The fundamental issue isn’t the size of the government or how to make government more “efficient.”
It’s who our government is for.
Should it work mainly for big corporations and billionaires — or for the rest of us?

I’ll say it again, I should’ve been born French. Bloody love that country.
A French cyclist survived for three days after a horrendous 130-foot fall into a ravine, kept alive by the bottles of red wine he had in his shopping bag, police said.

He got lost in tacky Second Empire white and gold. He has an unlearned, underclass idea of what constitutes good taste.
Despite being a property developer, his ideas of æsthetics are unlearned, and his instincts are so tacky as to make any deficit in learned taste even worse.
MAGA's perfect POTUS.

Really good piece and thread (really worth signing up to this newsletter!) I think the big question, as a longtime supporter of fiscal devolution, is: what do you do about the fact that the tax base is now quite weak in a lot of places?
Thank you to everyone who has shared or read Future North in its first week!
This week I have started with two pictures. But can you guess what they are and why they are important?
Short thread.
