Lacking energy due to the heat? 🥵
Repeat after me: many things worth doing are worth doing badly. Half-assed toothbrushing is better than none. Eating ice cream is better than not eating. Do what you can, and try not to feel guilty about it. You don't deserve that.

Today I learned about a relatively new concept in energy conservation that already is seeing buy-in from big, established utility companies. This qualifies as Good News.

I took a tour with a mushroom expert today and I found these teeny tiny mushrooms in the hole which was surrounded by moss. The mushrooms and the moss lit up in all these colours when he shone a UV torch onto them. Daytime! No filters!

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't.

Also: Get off your arse and vote. My constituency was won for Labour by 15 votes. A high turnout from the French sorted this. You don't vote? Well, the fash do.
