Low-Cost Wind Power?
I wonder why this is an artist’s rendering and not a photograph of an actual installation.
Maybe it’s because the cost per KWh will be off the charts.
The Rock-Solid Certainty of the Trump MAGA Base
Bertrand Russell has been dead for more than half a century, as so we can only speculate as to what he’d have to say about the Trump MAGA base.
If these people are anything, they’re cock-sure that God sent Trump to save our country from ruination by the radical left.
George Carlin’s Artful Blend of Comedy with Social Commentary
This made me smile.
What made George Carlin so special was his insights in our society’s woes and his astonishing ability to “kid on the level.” In this case, he was absolutely correct in his observation that Americans tend to be too busy working, desperate to eke out a living, to have the time or the interest in exploring how our civilization might be able to improve life for all of us.
Others have commented that this is no accident. If you can keep people in a condition that they can barely survive, they won’t get involved with things like protests or voting for progressives.

Another Exercise in the Difference Between Correlation and Causation
It appears that the idiot who composed the meme at left wants us to believe that the ACA is the reason that healthcare prices have risen.
Not shortages of doctors and nurses? Not declining education and worsening diets? Not poverty?
Why No Prosecutions in Minnesota? Something Doesn’t Add Up Here
Could someone please explain why there isn’t enough evidence to prosecute and convict these people for second-degree murder based on the videos that almost all Americans have seen dozens of times?
Why second-degree murder and not manslaughter? You don’t fire three rounds into someone’s head at close range without the intent to kill them.
Why won’t self-defense work? Rewatch the videos.
All This Changed When Trump Came Along
Until very recently, there was virtually no controversy about things like the meme here.
Our Constitution, which used to be understood and respected by all schoolchildren and adult Americans, makes the eligibility requirements for the House and Senate quite clear. The U.S. had been content with that for almost 250 years.
Now, Trump and his semi-literate base have turned this on its head.
Take a Cool Guess—The Fun Quiz on Renewable Energy and Environmental Sustainability. Today’s Topic: World’s Happiest Countries
Question: What’s going on with all these happy countries?
I had the pleasure of speaking with a guy from Sweden not too long ago about this topic, and I happened to mention Demark, to which he replied, “We hate the Danes.”
He immediately broke into a grin and added, “I’m kidding, of course. People from the happiest countries on Earth don’t hate anybody. But we do have a rivalry going on.”
Can you discern any common ground among these nations?
Answer: Can be found at Clean Energy Answers.
Complying with Evil
Admiral McRaven made this statement in 2020; God only knows what he’s thinking about this now.
I continue to wonder how it’s possible that people of honor and intelligence like our top military commanders don’t simply refuse to comply with orders that are so clearly illegal and immoral.
I won’t be surprised if this happens before Trump leaves office.

How to Live One’s Life
To the author of the meme here, yes!
I’m proud to be a dissenter of this regime of hate and ignorance, and I’ll go to my grave in precisely that fashion.

Gas Prices: Whose Lives Are Altered?
In the last couple of months, gas prices here have risen from ~$3.50/gallon to ~$5.40/gallon. That’s a 54% increase and it’s hit working class folks hard.
Liberals are not “losing their minds”; they simply have empathy for other people.
