I've published 3x single-film focused monographs of 30k words each since 2015 (on Dario Argento's Suspiria, Robert Harmon's The Hitcher, and Abel Ferrara's Ms. 45), and it's the perfect size for a project like that. The BFI single-film monographs established this as film crit norm, we're lucky!

The physics of reliability: Why gas peakers alone can’t save the modern grid Most outages don’t start as a multihour energy shortage; they start as a frequency crisis. If you only have gas, you’re trying to stop a bullet with a shield that takes 10 minutes to lift, writes Arun...

Five years ago it was widely assumed the grid would always need gas peaker plants. So this is quite a sentence. Good article too.

"In the energy industry, we’ve spent decades leaning on a single, reliable “get out of jail free” card: the natural gas peaker plant...it’s becoming a liability."

The Foreign Minister @senatorwong.bsky.social lied in the senate yesterday when she claimed the Iranian vessel torpedoed by the US was "preparing to strike."

The ship that was sunk in the Indian Ocean was unarmed and full of training officers. The attack was a war crime.

So I guess it was either World War III or drag queens reading books to our children.

Anti-trafficking efforts also must exclude local law enforcement because they will share information with federal agents.

While this will not surprise anyone, the DHS-administered tip line to report both human trafficking and "illegal immigration" is THE SAME EXACT NUMBER — a direct call to ICE

Labor told us AUKUS is “peace through strength”. Opponents were branded “appeasers”, cowards who failed to understand “ changed circumstances”.
Our govt must stop dragging Australia into militarism , refusing to be honest, and sucking up to Trump an out of control madman.

"To identify the best opportunities for rapid action, the Beyond Alliance will partner with the Carbon Containment Lab..."
