One Starbucks coffee gets you 30 miles in a petrol car and 300 miles in an EV

EVs are just so much nicer to drive. Once you get that immediate and precise throttle response driving a petrol car feels archaic.

The energy transition is inevitable. The only reason it was slower in some areas was aggressive lobbying from the oil industry and their corporate and political allies. But thanks to Trump and Putins stupid wars they convinced the entire planet to go electric.

The US is engineered to collect money from the population and funnel it to the wealthy. Not the other way around

Americans elected Trump knowing that. The problem isn’t Trump, it’s the population of the United States. Even those who oppose him are doing so weakly and ineffectively. You can’t defeat fascism with tweets.

He isn’t the problem. It’s those who voted for him, those who forgot to vote and those who couldn’t be bothered to protest who are the problem. Death won’t solve this.

Racists are great for politicians because they are so profoundly easy to manipulate. They will overlook low wages, bad hours, high rents and exploitation as long as they can blame brown people. They are a gift to the oligarch class.

Why is a judicial court made from political appointees? A court has to be apolitical and unbiased.

That classic Enterprise in orbit making an ongoing left hand turn is iconic. (But also means the planet is about a mile across. )

If you don’t prosecute a guy for staging an insurrection … you can hardly complain when he goes on to break less important laws.

If a minority vote leads to majority power - it’s not a very good democratic system. Just saying. The electoral college is designed to disenfranchise.

Glyn Williams @carniphage.bsky.social · 08/09/2026
But being told your lack of prosperity is down to migrants and not corporate greed is so much more appealing when you are racist to begin with.

Glyn Williams @carniphage.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
How’s that working out for you? A simpler solution is to not offer king powers to anyone. Not even a king. Also try not to have your legal system dominated by political appointees. It’s an invitation to outright partisan decision making.

Electrification with solar and batteries reduces the cost of energy. What’s more it makes us less dependent upon dictators and unstable geopolitical elements. Oh. And it means not killing the fucking planet.

Yeah, but he makes out that it’s the migrants who are taking all the wealth. And Americans are so incredibly racist, they believe him.

The utility benefits of bipedalism outweigh the mechanic disadvantages.

But efficient design requires the fewest components. Additional limbs in a domestic setting would be an impediment. But your big bug would be great for disaster relief or industrial applications where a low centre of mass and stability are useful.

You are adding more mechanical complexity. And a giant metal cockroach would unsettle my cat.

Every door, staircase, piece of furniture, tool, window is designed to be operated by a human shaped entity. A squat wheeled unit or a quadruped is not going to be able to empty my dishwasher.

No. I don’t want a human being wiping my ass or carrying me to the toilet. It diminishes us both. A machine which gives me autonomy and independence is a good thing.

The legal system has inbuilt checks. Meanwhile a single corrupt individual has not. Not sure what the American “founding fathers” were smoking.

Imagine being so racist you vote for a convicted felon who is as incompetent as he is corrupt.

Indeed - if the outcome of an entire judicial system can be overturned by the whim of an individual, it makes a mockery of justice.

Speaking as someone from a different country. Why should an elected official get king powers at all?

For some reason, I enjoy doing portraits (which I can’t ever sell) rather than something more commercial. Here’s the latest.

Given how well they sold, hardly an insane decision.

My guess is they want to preserve a privacy first reputation. We will see.

Investing in the inevitable energy transition will boost the economy. The investment creates jobs and growth. It creates huge savings in the medium term. It isolates us from the chaotic geopolitics of oil. The environmental benefits are just a positive side effect
