It was written up by Emiliano Bellini www.pv-magazine.com/2026/09/29/s... based on the new World Nuclear Industry Status Report. www.worldnuclearreport.org/World-Nuclea... BOTH solar AND wind now produce more than nuclear per year. So both are now larger than nuclear in the absolute sense.

Feminist theory remains undefeated in explaining the weirdest parts of the Trump administration. I'm just going to keep posting this skeleton-key-to-MAGA passage, written over 40 years ago, until everyone gets it.
"To say that straight men are heterosexual is only to say that they engage in sex (fucking exclusively with the other sex, i.e., women). All or almost all of that which pertains to love, most straight men reserve exclusively for other men. The people whom they admire, respect, adore, revere, honor, whom they imitate, idolize, and form profound attachments to, whom they are willing to teach and from whom they are willing to learn, and whose respect, admiration, recognition, honor, reverence and love they desire… those are, overwhelmingly, other men. In their relations with women, what passes for respect is kindness, generosity or paternalism; what passes for honor is removal to the pedestal. From women they want devotion, service and sex.

Heterosexual male culture is homoerotic; it is man-loving.”
― Marilyn Frye, The Politics of Reality: Essays in Feminist Theory

Lege bloemkool-schap bij Albert Heijn met een brief waarop staat:

 "Bloemkool tijdelijk minder beschikbaar door uitzonderlijke hitte

Door de weersomstandigheden van de afgelopen periode is de oogst van Nederlandse bloemkool helaas onverwacht veel lager dan voorzien.

Onze excuses voor het ongemak."

Waarom dieren zelfs tijdens dit soort hittegolven nog op transport worden gezet? Die arme dieren lijden vreselijk in snikhete vrachtwagens! Drie keer raden, wil ik bijna zeggen, maar ik denk dat één keer wel genoeg is. Het antwoord telt drie letters: BBB Draadje ⬇️ www.bnnvara.nl/joop/artikel...

Femke Wiersma wil diertransporten tijdens hittegolf, anders is het zielig voor de sector - Joop - BNNVARA
Een Kamermeerderheid stemde voor een motie van Esther Ouwehand (Partij voor de Dieren) om de maximumtemperatuur voor diertransporten te verlagen van 35 naar 30 graden.

A screenshot of a tumblr post by user “reggiemess” featuring a classical-style painting of a woman reclining and reading a small red book. The woman is shown in profile, with dark hair and pale clothing, against a muted brown background.

Overlaid white text on the image reads:

“Before, writers didn't use AI, they stole their wife's work and claimed it was theirs.”

GenAI is a tech bubble of hype and absurdity. It runs on nothing but vibes and dollar signs in billionaire's eyes. But that's why we must resist it. We broke NFTs, we broke the Metaverse, we can break this nonsense too.
The reason RAM prices went up 4x is that a massive amount of not-yet-manufactured memory was bought with money that doesn't really exist to put into GPUs that haven't been made yet, to be installed in data centers that haven't been built, powered by infrastructure that may never exist, to satisfy demand that isn't actually there, in order to generate profits that are mathematically impossible.

Our current methane emissions add roughly 0.6 degree of global warming and stopping them is the fastest way to reduce global warming. Now GWP* is used by politicians and lobbyists to say: "If we keep doing it, this 0.6 degrees would not increase further, so we have no impact on the climate."

Bij welke andere groep zou het zo geaccepteerd zijn om het óver ze te hebben, nadat er een aanslag op ze gepleegd is? Nadat er gewelddadige rellen tégen hun bestaan zijn geweest? Mensen in asiel worden door politiek en media gezien als naamloze figuranten in hun eigen film. Geen stem, geen gezicht.

Denmark's coal-to-wind transition is one of the most dramatic energy transformations of the past three decades. In 1990, coal provided 90% of Danish electricity. Today it is under 3%. Wind now covers roughly 60% of electricity generation. The last coal plant is scheduled to close by 2028.
