@vmstan there's a long list of things i won't build for $1b. but seriously, as long as gas prices stay low who needs renewable energy?
as soon as i retire i'm going to block any incoming messages with the word `git` in it.
US to pay TotalEnergies to drop offshore wind leases

The Department of Interior says a French energy company has agreed to give up two U.S. offshore wind leases and invest in fossil fuel projects instead. The department said Monday that TotalEnergies committed to invest approximately $1 billion in oil and natural gas production in the United States. That is the amount the company paid to purchase leases to develop offshore wind off the coasts of North Carolina and New York. The Trump administration has tried to halt offshore wind construction, but federal judges overturned those orders. These settlements are a different way of stopping U.S. offshore wind development. President Donald Trump has gone all in on fossil fuels.

I went to a tom petty / bob dylan concert in Dallas in the mid 80s. Petty did great but Dylan completely sucked. A while later my dad gave me Dylan’s biography and I wasn’t eager to read it. But it was interesting and he admitted he sucked ass on that tour. The drive to/from made it worth the middling concert though. A fellow airman drove in his corvette.
Are there other types of swoop than fell? Maybe a stumbled swoop? A misstepped swoop? One tripped swoop?
Happy Chemtrail Day to all those who celebrate.
@ricci 100%. normally i'd shy away from a texas preacher politician but i really liked how talarico talked about how his faith guides him to help people, to raise them up, rather than, well, you know.
