Results in the first round of PJM’s reformed interconnection process are devastating for wind and solar, and the idea that these resources can reliably serve the electricity grid. By a wide margin, natural gas is now leading the queue and is beating wind and solar combined.

Bridge House, one of Ambleside’s most iconic and photographed landmarks. Built in the 17th century and dramatically perched over Stock Beck, Bridge House is a striking symbol of the Lake District’s architectural heritage and enduring charm.

The famous Eastgate Clock mechanism was made in 1897 by J. B. Joyce & Company of Whitchurch, Shropshire. This clock was being built to celebrate Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee in 1897, though it wasn't officially opened until May 27, 1899.

The year stamped onto the ironworks once marked a moment in time — a promise that this place would be remembered.
Now it flickers in cold neon, rewritten by progress that never asked permission.
The old brickwork still tries to breathe beneath the circuitry, but its voice is fading, drowned out by the hum of manufactured light.
What stood for nearly a century is no longer allowed to simply be — it must now compete with a future that has no patience for the past.
And in the glow of the lamp, you can almost feel the building mourning what it used to be.

Sometimes history is hiding in plain sight 🕯️✨ Can you spot the year on this old corner? From the weathered lamp casting stories, to bricks soaked in time—every detail has a tale. Would you explore a lane like this, or does it spook you out after dark? 👻💡

Just joined BBwatch to help with their campaign against the #authoritarianism of @uklabour and the MANDATORY digital ID and all the restrictions that will bring. UK citizens have national insurance numbers, you can't work here without them, so what is the real use of this identification scheme?! @bigbrotherwatchhq
🚨 Digital ID = CONTROL, not freedom 🚨
They’re selling Digital ID as “convenience” and “security” — but here’s what it really means:
⚠️ Authoritarian Control – A system that tracks what you do, where you go, and what you can access.
⚠️ Two-Tier Society – Comply and you’re in. Refuse and you’re locked out.
⚠️ Gateway to CBDCs – Programmable money where the state can decide how, when, and where you spend it.
⚠️ Privacy at Risk – One hack or misuse of power and your entire life is exposed.
This isn’t safety. It’s surveillance.
This isn’t freedom. It’s control.
Once it’s in place, there’s no turning back.
Say NO to Digital ID. Say NO to CBDCs.
