@jeremiah @rimugu @wjmaggos and not just externalities that aren’t figured in, but subsidies in many countries make it hard for non-oil/non-coal energy sources; seems like that’s changing more and more. canada for example subsidized our oil sands production like crazy to make them viable

i have basically 2 modes of writing when messaging folks. sometimes it’s like a switch flips in my head and i toggle from this mode (w no capitalization and limited punctuation) to…

i’ve been waiting for daylight savings to “fall back” so i can wake up on time more easily, but it’s still over a month away!

(realistically, i’d probably need to have the time rollback happen every month or two to actually keep me on track)

@jeremiah easily in my top 5 books ever. so good. don’t recognize this particular map though! is it a fan creation?

@matt @viticci love raindrop! i do still use instapaper for things i want to read in the shorter term though (both with some zaps copying
