  China built a 40-story tower that banks wind power by hoisting giant concrete blocks, then dropping them when the grid needs juice. A skyscraper-sized battery with no lithium in it. https://boingboing.net/2026/07/06/post-china-built-a-40-story-tower-that-stores-wind-powe.html

  RE: https://mstdn.ca/@CanadiansOrg/116856025293516580 Getting elected because people hate the right-wing party, and immediately adopting the policies of the right-wing party, is a winning strategy! Just ask Keir Starmer!

  I make a modest amount of money in royalties on a handful of books I’ve published, which are marketed online. I honestly doubt if I’d be selling any at all if I relied on a conventional proprietary model of making people pay before they could look at them. https://c4ss.org/content/45961

  But... but... but... all the right-libertarian Economics Understanders(TM) at FEE, Future of Freedom, and Mises.org assured me that wages are determined by the productivity of labor. It's almost as if the Economics they Understand is just a big fucking pile of shit. https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/u-s-workers-record-low-wages-labor-share-bls

  "Nearly half of employees worldwide (46%) would not recommend their company nor their profession to their children or any young person they care about, and 38% of employees globally said, 'I wouldn’t wish my job on my worst enemy.' " I constantly wished my last wage gig on my worst enemy -- worst enemies being the bastards in the C-suite at said job. https://buff.ly/3HJq52B

  The trillions that US tech companies extract could be someone else's billions – all they'd have to do is offer the interoperable goods and services that disenshittify America's tech products. They could sell the tools that let anyone in the world use independent app stores, or fix their cars and tractors, and put generic ink in their printers. https://pluralistic.net/2026/05/05/three-is-a-magic-number/

  I've published several books and a lot of smaller research papers thanks to my generous supporters on Patreon. My income is getting pretty close to the edge (I've started replacing cat litter with dirt and wood chips to pay down debt faster and free up money for necessities), so if you're interested in my work and willing and able to support it, now would be a good time to start. https://www.patreon.com/KevinCarson I'm primarily dependent on Patreon, supplemented...

  Looks like Indiana's got one of those government hotlines for snitching on woke teachers. Sure hope nobody sabotages it and renders it unusable with a bunch of fake reports. https://www.in.gov/attorneygeneral/education-liberty/

  The argument that capitalists are needed to provide workers with means of production, and profit is their reward for doing so, is nonsense. All capitalists have are paper or digital claims on the right to allocate means of production or material resources. All of the actual material resources -- means of production and raw materials -- are entirely the product of labor acting on free gifts of nature. The entire point at issue is the legitimacy of the process by which capitalists happen to be i...

  "We don’t need to rely on elected politicians to prove their sincerity and take action. Just as workers can withhold labor and halt production, tenants and homeowners have collective financial power too: our monthly rents and mortgages trickle up to the 1 percent and keep the economy running." https://jacobin.com/2026/02/tenants-housing-rights-debt-rent/
