The UK government’s unprecedented attempt to undermine Scotland’s democratic process is an attack on devolution and a threat to trans rights across the UK.

We cannot let this scaremongering win.🏳️‍⚧️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Eigg isn't connected to the UK national grid. Instead we generate 90% to 95% of our electricity from wind, sun, & water (hydro). Community-owned Eigg Electric was switched on in 2008. Islanders are trained and employed to manage it. Electricity costs 28p per unit/kWh. Before 2008 each property had its own diesel generator. Now we have 24kW of wind, 110kW of hydro, 170kW of solar PV, storage batteries, and a back up generator. Next challenge is #netzero #renewables #eigg http://isleofeigg.org/eigg-electric/
Eigg Electric - The Isle of Eigg

Eigg is not connected to the mainland electricity supply.  After decades of diesel generators, Eigg Electric provided 24 hour power for the first time in February 2008.  Eigg Electric is a community owned, managed and maintained company which provides electricity for all island residents from the renewable sources of water, sun, and wind.   No more pouring smelly […]

The Isle of Eigg

Trans rights are human rights.

Black lives matter.

No human is illegal.

Love is love.

Their body, their choice.

Science is real.

Kindness is everything.

Our values obviously align, but our interests/hobbies might not. No hard feelings if you unfollow. 😉

There is no such thing as a “lone wolf” shooter. The horrific acts of violence against marginalized communities are inextricable from the homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and racism that far-right political leaders stoke every day.

I hear new people noting how chill, tolerant, and pleasant Mastodon is.

Mastodon isn’t chill or tolerant or pleasant. It’s a tool… a foundation on which to create and maintain a culture.

It’s those who’ve been on Mastodon, run servers, and served as admins who did the hard work and created the culture you now enjoy.

Now, it’s your turn. The only way it stays tolerant and chill is by us doing the work to keep it that way.

A good example of, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”

When people look for an image of Eigg, the internet often shows our neighbouring Isle of Rum, taken from Laig Bay on Eigg. It's not surprising really - our west coast sunsets are spectacular. And when the tide is out, the sun reflects across the sandy beach, making our whole world golden.
