Att delta i denna teaterföreställning är att skänka mördarregimen legitimitet. Tiden för politiskt arbete via valurnan är förbi. Nu är det tid att återgå till den gamla fina ryska traditionen att spränga makthavare i luften.

Jag nådde just mitt mål att läsa ut denna utmärkta bok i tid före valdagen. Tack @lindellch.bsky.social och @alexvoronov.bsky.social för att ni tog er an att faktagranska dessa myter och skriva boken med dess angelägna innehåll! Må den inspirera andra redaktioner till att göra detsamma!

Solar is no longer just “the future”. In 2025 it overtook wind globally and moved to within touching distance of nuclear. The big question now is no longer whether solar is central to the power system, but whether grids, storage, flexibility and electrification can keep up. ⚡️ @ember-energy.org

this is a masterpiece

Among all the very real bad shit happening, there is always good shit happening too. And it tends to get less publicity. That's the history of humanity so far: two steps forward, one and a half steps backward.

Happening right in front of everyone's eyes. Journalism is not a crime.

A HISTORIC MILESTONE: For the first time, solar power generated more electricity globally than nuclear, making it the world’s 4th largest power source. In just 5 years, solar output nearly tripled—from 79 TWh (Apr 2020) to 233 TWh (Apr 2025). The energy transition is speeding up. @ember-energy.org
