Solar, heat pumps ‘lower cost’ path than LNG for electrification, says NZGBC A new report argues New Zealand can meet its looming energy shortfall by accelerating rooftop solar and electric hot water

Government’s plan to import LNG for electricity generation would cost households and businesses up to $8.3bn

Same volume of electricity could be delivered through a $2.5b investment in rooftop solar panels and hot water heat pumps

Black activists fought for slavery exhibits 24 years ago. Under Trump, the fight returns. A social justice group is challenging a Trump order that led to the removal of historic panels about people George Washington enslaved at the President’s House in Philadelphia.

If history makes you uncomfortable, you should study it and learn from it. Closing your eyes to it just makes you a coward.

Trump, miller and Republicans are working on the last four.

This is a hard world for Black women and girls. Once in a while, we need a little tenderness. Softness!

Gallup will no longer measure presidential approval after 88 years

Gee, I wonder why..

This whole Epstein File episode has really brought home how much we’ve lost our empathy on a massive scale. There is actual evidence both documented and verified by survivors of horrific crimes. Committed by people at the highest levels. Yet not one of them has been punished.

Happy 1 year anniversary to TWILIGHT

Dems are effectively shutting down the DHS in an hour. This is a great start.

Now tell them to impeach this monster Kristi Noem:

Rep Jayapal: “Bondi showed up today with a burn book that held a printed history of exactly what emails I searched — we’re going to demand an end to that”

Rep Raskin: "Spying on Members of Congress conducting oversight in yet another blatant attempt to intrude into Congress’s oversight processes"

today on my blog, I wrote an op-ed about the history of lynching, and why its extrajudicial nature is so aptly documented by Black journalists like Georgia Fort and Black activists like Nekima Levy-Armstrong the-haters-guide-to-international-politics.ghost.io/on-lynchings...

Senate Democrats are reportedly discussing whether to leave their chairs empty when Trump delivers the first State of the Union of his second term on Feb. 24. Sounds like a plan to me.

Here and on Reddit, we have Black women being "well actually"-ed about racism in figure skating.

Just another fine day on the Internet!

And they aren't all crowing about it on social media, so let's not assume that all the people in hats and buttons passing out whistles are doing nothing else. People - "wine moms," "knitters," who else do you think has ready access to breast milk? - are working behind the scenes for good.
