ALT bred menace @averincm "the problem with solar is we can't monopolize the sun or make it scarcer than it is" MIT Technology Review The problem is that solar panels generate lots of electricity in the middle of sunny days, frequently more than what's required, driving down prices-sometimes even into negative territory.

This is why they spend a half billion a year on union busting

I just backed my wonderful friend Amanda's @subsurfaceamy new game - Puppets in High Places on @Kickstarter kickstarter.com/projects/sub…
I loved With a Smile & A Gun, so this was a very easy choice to back!

I had a consult today for a gender affirming surgery. It went really well. Gender affirming care is something that gives me trans joy.
Transphobes & bigots are always trying to paint gender affirming care as something other than what it is. It’s joyous for many of us.
Science & medicine support trans people. Between HRT & gender affirming surgeries, none of this is new.

fwiw, speaking as a game designer: game changer has been one of the most exciting, innovative things in the game show space for years now
it's time for the emmys to take notice (instead of just waving through the same 7 shows they've been nominating for the past 20 years)
Indie streaming platform Dropout, formerly known as CollegeHumor, is vying for a spotlight at this year’s Primetime Emmys with an ambitious campaign to secure its first major nominations. variety.com/2024/tv/awards/d…
