i know people on here don't rly care about culture coverage but sharing because I'm proud I did it: reviewed Mitski's new residency at NYC's The Shed @us.theguardian.com
seeing her perform for the ninth time in 9 years (!), I feel confident saying that Mitski is in her triumphant era.
“So, we don’t even respect big homies,,,, I know Killa doesn’t — and for me?? I neeeeeverrrr”

Consolidation is hella failing 🫡
we got senators talking about nuremberg 2
senator sheehy should be fired and arrested. what a fucking traitor.
We went from making up reasons like "weapons of mass destruction" to you know what, fuck it we don't need to even lie, the president "had a feeling" that they pose a threat so we just bomb them so we can. A country doing this can't expect peace inside.
Raskin should be the House Democratic Leader
While in some ways authoritarian consolidation is working, in many other ways it’s hella failing
there's a lot going on right now but did you know a massive amount of the world's fertilizer flows through the middle east, and did you know that that fertilizer needs to be shipped to the us *right now* for planting season, and uh did you know we are at war with iran
I often return to Chappelle's Black Bush sketch.
Minimum table ante, yes.
The real stakes:
- No clerks
- No building
- No operating budget
- No shadow docket
- Riding the circuit
- 25 justices; 9 chosen by lottery per case
We can go back to normal once they stop ignoring the law, data, precedent, & the plain meaning of words in the Constitution.
I am not looking for a politician to explain why blowing up 100 little girls is good
oh so the president has a rash from a little bit of rope play and bsky jumps into full kink shaming mode. not surprised really, just disappointed
Modeling Monday 🧵
Data centers are the new load forecasting problem
So we updated EPRI's Powering Intelligence methodology to move beyond trend extrapolations and "chip shipment math" and into something planners can actually use: a state-level project pipeline to grid load mapping
Energy pundits who've been focusing on affordability should be thinking seriously about the spikes in natural gas and electricity bills that retail customers are about to see as the illegal US/Israel war on Iran drives up global oil and gas prices - and the role & history of US O&G export policy.
from a standpoint epistemological view you have to take this view particularly seriously
During my lifetime, the American conservative agenda has been preoccupied with expanding violence in schools—and normalizing violence against children more broadly.
School shootings, campus sexual violence, bathrooms bans, ICE raids, and now bombing a girls’ school in Iran.
There’s still time to apply for this Energy Policy Analyst role to work with me at Gridworks! Role is focused in the non-coastal western U.S. feel free to reach out with questions.
Grace is a foreign concept to these people. 🤬
Remember that actions against transfolk are the tip of the spear
“Please note that the Legislature did not include a grace period for updating credentials.”

It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow
It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker
This was never about woman's sports
I've worked for over a decade on data-driven software to make buildings more comfortable, energy-efficient, and grid-responsive. R&D shows consistent 15-25% savings potential, but real-world adoption remains low - and not for reasons different software can solve. I wrote a paper about why. Preprint:
I don’t excuse his actions. That said, “behavior” implies a little bit of agency, which his disability robs him of somewhat.
Im just saying that I feel like the director’s cut probably enhanced his “villainy” unnecessarily.
But I hear you though.
