The biggest lie in energy policy:

“Fossil fuels are heavily subsidized.”

Reality👇
Solar: $68/MWh
Wind: $19/MWh
Everything else: ~$1–2/MWh

If wind and solar were actually cheaper…
They wouldn’t need 10–50x more subsidies to survive.

Because without subsidies…
Renewables don’t compete.

@PowerTripKFAN this explains it all! Long live Sugo di carne!

[Alana Mastrangelo @ARmastrangelo]

One of my pet peeves is when Americans with Italian ancestry try to correct someone by telling them that "sauce" is actually called "gravy."

Italian immigrants said "gravy" in the late 1800's because they thought it translated to sauce. But in Italian, there’s actually no word for "gravy." The closest translation is "sugo di carne" which means meat sauce.

Calling it "gravy" not only reveals one’s disconnect from the Italian language, but also that their ancestors immigrated to the U.S. more than a century ago. So to Italian immigrants and those whose families immigrated to the U.S. after WWII, it’s cringe. Because calling sauce "gravy" is a very American thing (which is fine), but it’s an American thing that is specifically used to try to come off like it’s Italian. And that gives us second-hand embarrassment.

Oh, and calamari is an Italian word. Calling it "galamad" is like calling capocollo "gabagool." Also cringe!

Anthony Edwards is watching Tim Connelly's next move VERY closely, after the Timberwolves sold off Mike Conley's contract today, per @WindhorstESPN:

"[The Wolves] could have gotten Coby White in this trade, and they need help with the guard position. So I want to watch what Minnesota does between now and Thursday, and I'm sure Ant Edwards does too...

...I don't wanna overreact on Tuesday when the deadline is Thursday, but if you come out of this week and Minnesota's only move is just to save money, they're gonna have to answer to Ant on that." -- @ESPNNBA
