Agrivoltaics combines crop or livestock w/ PV solar power. The farmers get two crops on the dual use land. "Common sense" might suggest that shade from the PV system will detract from the agricultural product. But this lamb study from Oregon St Univ. (my Alma Mater!) found the opposite. 🧪🔌💡☀️💨💧🔋 a 🧵

Given J.K. Rowling's apparent desire to see Amnesty International in court, Amnesty may want to take a look into her endorsement of a site that not only incites violence against the trans community, but also sells the weapons required to enact it. terfipedia.com @terfipedia.com
Terfipedia infographic: J.K. Rowling.

J.K. Rowling is a regular promoter of Reduxx, the anti-trans propaganda site guilty of selling and exporting illegal weapons via their Patreon, for which they were suspended from the platform.

As well as regularly reposting their articles, she has said of them that “The Reduxx archive is going to be an invaluable resource once the 'nobody was really hurt' guys start writing their opinion pieces” and “It’s fair to say I love them.”

Reduxx were offering brass knuckles as a Patreon reward, which they described as "A 'Keychain'" (their quotes) while saying "We can't tell you what this is for. Use your imagination... a heavy duty industrial clamp and keychain... One self-defence kitty".

Genevieve Gluck is on record as saying that Anna Slatz shipped the weapons from Canada to "donors in the US and Canada".

The Criminal Code of Canada classifies brass knuckles and similar devices as prohibited weapons. Possessing, manufacturing, or selling such items is a criminal offense and can lead to severe penalties, including imprisonment for up to five years.

They are legally defined as: "The device known as ‘Brass Knuckles’ and any similar device consisting of a band of metal with one or more finger holes designed to fit over the fingers of the hand.”

Being prime minister of the uk has a higher regret rate than being trans

So the solution is to ban prime ministers

#uk politics #before being allowed to run for party leadership politicians should get two letters from psychologists or psychiatrists #diagnosing them with severe political ambitions that cannot be alleviated by any other means #also there should be long waiting times for those assessments because maybe they're just faking for attention #allowing politicians to become party leaders should be an absolute last resort #especially if there's a reasonable chance it could lead to becoming prime minister #we need to protect them from themselves they don't know what they're doing
