x/conner-weigman
— 2d

The narrative blends a high-stakes program-building push with a high-profile showdown against Houston, a test of whether Tech’s 2025 breakthrough can translate into sustained national power amid coaching tensions and fanfare about the program’s spending and strategy.

Gaza hospitals ration generator use amid fuel and oil shortages
x/israeli
— Sep 10, 2026
Gaza’s largest functioning hospitals are operating under emergency austerity as power cuts and shortages of diesel, engine oil and spare parts cause generators to seize, endangering patients. The crisis is driven by Israeli restrictions on fuel and oil, ongoing high energy costs, and a broader energy shortage despite a 2025 ceasefire, forcing hospitals to rotate power cuts and families to rely on expensive neighborhood generators.

Finance
— Jul 20, 2026

The rising costs are compounded by extreme heat increasing fuel use and electricity bills, while climate patterns like a potentially very large El Niño could further elevate prices for groceries and other essentials, affecting households and voters alike.
