Speaking of portents, as a Christian, I hearken back to the fire that nearly destroyed Notre Dame Cathedral during Holy Week of 2019. A warning from Our Lady of what was to come, perhaps.

"the fire occurred during the longest-running Parliament in English history, known as the Cavalier Parliament. It lasted from 1661 to 1679, accounting for 18 years of Charles II’s 25-year reign.

Thanks for the great monday read! Disheartened to corroborate the "suck it up suckers" messaging coming from the WEF puppets as our Minister of Finance in the Netherlands said basically the same thing as Macron. I love how these people keep trying the same trick: virus? just push pause! energy crisis? just push pause! unhappy in the body you were born in? just push pause. WTF? Anyone with a brain should tell them to sit down already. Sadly, most citizens are still woefully clueless. One of our better politicians was interviewed last week and the bimbo asking the questions posed something about speeding up the energy transition with wind farms etc. The poor man visibly gathered his patience to explain to her that wind energy produces electricity, it is the gas that we are having problems with. How do people not know this stuff? We installed 40 solar panels, not in fear of an impending energy crisis, but to take advantage of the soon-to-be-conveniently-phased-out subsidies. We already explored how to transition our home (which is only 20 years old, compared to many buildings that are 10 or 20 times older) to electricity. Short answer is, it can't be done until battery storage is smaller and more affordable and not unimportantly, there are enough technicians available to carry out the work. There is NO WAY they are going to figure this out in a couple months let alone a couple years. The sooner we admit that, the sooner we can get on with life. I am all about taking care of the planet. Thankfully I have learned that the people who talk the loudest about that a) have no fucking clue what they are talking about and b) have no fucking empathy for the people who have to foot the bill, literally and figuratively. Democracy in the West appears to be dead, so as far as that goes, a new British monarch is perhaps the perfect bookend for our times. PS: I don't think Elizabeth II had any reasonable expectation of becoming Queen when she named her first child. But I did appreciate the historic reminders!
If so, Charles can expect some rat poison in his cornflakes.
On a more serious note, it appears that Europe will allow market forces to distribute its energy shortage. A more cautious approach would involve rationing.
We think along the same lines!

Good analysis of the current crisis.

Without petrochemical fertilizers, I guess we will have to go organic, then. Silver lining.

Excellent article worthy of a translation into French.
Done!

Can the king's consort become queen?
If so, Charles can expect some rat poison in his cornflakes.
On a more serious note, it appears that Europe will allow market forces to distribute its energy shortage. A more cautious approach would involve rationing.
It's worse than this but if you live in Western Europe, the prosperity of the past, for those who had much of any of it, has gone - for most.
