A bit introverted but happy to talk endlessly about interesting stuff, like solar panels, heat pumps, EVs and how we're too late to stop the effects of climate change destroying society as we know it.

Big news from Labour Conference: the PM has announced the government's plan to scrap first past the post. Seats that match votes would change British politics for good, but only if it happens. I've added my name. Join me? action.electoral-reform.org.uk/page/201578/...

The PM used his big speech to promise to fix Westminster's broken voting system.
We've heard promises before. I've signed to make sure this one is kept. It takes 30 seconds

Dear government, don’t send startling, high-pitched alerts about wildfires to ordinary people's phones. Send them to the CEOs of fossil fuel companies and make them impossible to switch off until they stop the destructive plunder that's contributing to climate change.

Republicans seem to be flooding social media with bullshit about Dr Fauci. Is this some sort of coordinated faux outrage to distract people from the Iran war, rising prices, ICE killings and the Epstein files?

What happens when the Epstein files are released? Nothing has stuck to Trump in the past 10 years, even things that would have destroyed a normal politician's career. Will this be different?

The whole concept of a govt shutdown is bizarre to anyone outside the USA. Why would you have a system where they have to vote periodically to keep funding essential stuff?

Trump is doing what Henry VIII did to the monasteries in the 16th century. He's telling lies to destroy organisations that help ordinary people with the aim of making himself richer. The part of Thomas Cromwell is being played by Elon Musk.

I’ll admit I am a bit surprised that measles outbreaks in the US has led to increased vaccination rates. It had been my impression that in America, deaths of children were regarded as just an unavoidable price of freedom and nothing could be done 🔫

Is it just me that thinks Trump's shenanigans could inadvertently cause a world war? I don't think it's his plan but his utter ineptitude at diplomacy will have unintended consequences.

Still wild to me that so many "savvy" folks on left and right have bought into the idea that online misinformation is overblown and doesn't really matter. From lies about migrants to transgender people to crime to election denial to climate denial, it's literally driving our country's politics.

Why are there repeated US govt shutdowns (or threats of)? Why isn't govt funding just ongoing without the need for new funding bills?

It's ironic that the British monarch has been stripped of their power over time while the US president has gained King-like power. I thought you guys didn't want a King?

Prediction - Musk says he can cut 2 trillion from the US federal budget. Everyone with more than 2 brain cells knows he can't so I predict he will simply claim he's done it. Check back in 4 years to see if I'm correct.
