Donald Trump’s hatred of #wind power continues. In a speech in #Davos last week that managed to upset almost everyone, the US president still found time to get in a few trademark digs at #renewable #energy - chart @lararhiannon.bsky.social

Judge Revives #WindFarm That #Trump Halted Off Martha’s Vineyard
The project, known as #VineyardWind, was already 95% complete when the Trump admin ordered construction to stop.
The ruling was the fourth legal setback that the Trump admin has suffered in its quest to throttle the country’s nascent offshore #wind industry.

Cold #Appalachian winters have a way of slowing everything down. You are forced to sit back and let the day take you where it wants to. The #wind cuts sharp, the #ice grows intense, the #snow watch increases but the mountains go quiet, and the kitchen becomes the warmest place in the house.
This is when I am taken back to my #childhood and a favorite meal my #grandmother would make: chicken and dumplings. These days, I don't eat the chicken but the meal has simple ingredients that are mixed by hand and simmered slow. It fills the bungalow up with smells and memories of home. It’s the kind of meal meant to be eaten from a bowl held in both hands, steam rising, worries settling. No better vessel than my Momma Bear soup mug.
This is #Appalachia. This is simple good #food. No fancy extras. Just comfort, patience, and something hot on the stove while winter does what winter does.
Some traditions don’t need changing. 💙
