If you did something amazing today, I'm proud of you. If you went to work today, I'm proud of you. If you took a shower, I'm proud of you. If you did some laundry, I'm proud of you. If you got out of bed, I'm proud of you. And if all you did was make it through another day, I'm still proud of you.

Licensing a new gasfield in a climate emergency is short-term thinking at its worst. This will further damage the living world we care for and rely on. The UK has missed an opportunity to show climate leadership and a clear vision of a clean and just energy system. www.quaker.org.uk/news-and-eve...

The money being thrown at oil and gas companies should instead be used to insulate homes and help people swap out their gas boilers for heat pumps. We can save people money, but not with new fossil fuels. Let's demand better. greens.scot/join

The North Sea is a very mature basin, with very real economic and geological challenges. Oil and gas production peaked in 1999 and has since dropped by around three-quarters. Official statistics recognise is trajectory of decline in the years ahead.

Excellent show last night seeing the one @kristinhersh.bsky.social Slightly different set from Edinburgh, so I was totally justified in going to both. Also, front row, baby!
In Glasgow to see the one @kristinhersh.bsky.social at Cottiers Theatre tonight. T is on cat duty while I'm away and I'm looking forward to a night and morning off from doing insulin injections 🙂
I mean look at this. Slide 1: "technological benefits" vs "the environmental, social, societal, economic, democratic and ethical impacts for humans and the planet" call me a luddite but I'm struggling to see in what possible way the former could outweigh the *entire shopping list* of the latter.
AI execs: “Our product is going to kill you 🥰😘” the general populace: “we don’t think you should do that” AI execs, dancing on a yacht powered by orphans: “Yooouuurre gonnnaaa diiiieee🎶🎵” everyone else: “i really don’t like this” AI execs, frolicking atop a mountain of skulls: “Why so hostile??”
In case you missed it last night: we are seeing reports all over the country of immigration surges and state violence. If you need whistles for your community, we will send you 100-3000 3d printed for free, and we will love doing it. 3dwhistles.com
