"When you try to hurl that word [woke] at my feet as if it were something dirty, something to run away from, something that I should be ashamed of, it won't work [...], becasue I will pick up that label and I will wear it as a badge of honour" - Matt Santos from The West Wing (paraphrased).

Warnings from the World Meteorological Organisation and the International Energy Agency show a growing climate and energy crisis driven by fossil fuel dependence.

This must be a wake-up call. The government must reject the misinformation from Reform and the Conservatives and accelerate the shift to homegrown renewable energy.
Dear Europe: Germany has shown the way forward, by making the Open Document Format (ODF) mandatory within its sovereign digital infrastructure.

⚠️ Update: It's now day 24 of #Iran's internet blackout, with the measure passing 552 hours among the most severe registered in any country.

International connectivity remains unavailable to the general public while authorities maintain a selective whitelist for global access.

“This is not a war for security. It’s a war for the political economy of fossil fuels – and the people paying the price are Iranian civilians and working‑class communities around the world.”

If you’re tired of feeling like there’s nothing that you can do to help make the world a better place besides voting, I’m here to tell you that there is…

Volunteer.

Food banks, soup kitchens, senior centers, blood banks, animal shelters, and more. Find a place where you can be in the service of others. Where you can give back to the community that you live in.

It’s a great way to get out of your own head. Serve others, and serve the better parts of yourself in return
