RE: https://eupolicy.social/@Veza85UE/116923518398968747 An update: nvm, Denmark's deradicalisation therapy for frugalism lasted about as long as my last vow to not binge on albariño. I can go back to fully including it in my anti-Calvinist bullshit memes. #FrugalsInTrenches

RE: https://eupolicy.social/@Veza85UE/116923488218443672 #DanJørgensen “Our electrification rate has stagnated for the last decade. We need to electrify and we need to do it much faster,” he said." Conflicted re: how much shit I should give any Danish politician as, to its credit, #Denmark is the only country among the "Hansa League" frauds to have denounced frugalism. We should welcome anyone seeing the light... But this is still a classic use case for the: "We're all trying to find the guy who did this" meme. #EUpol #EU #energy #FrugalsInTrenches

RE: https://eupolicy.social/@euractiv_politics/116119737300310606 Bleakly amusing to me that 4 years into Russia attacking Europe and using energy to blackmail us, 🇪🇺 electricity distribution grids are paying infomercials to ask for large-scale investments in ageing infrastructure: "Distribution grids will require EUR 730 billion investment by 2040 and a significant share of this will be dedicated specifically to resilience measures" ...but we can't have eurobonds because #FrugalsInTrenches still think I'll spend it all on booze and twinks.
