Exactly. Why did the grid become unstable in Spain?

Why did the freq go up?

My Spidey Sense is that it was an attack on Solar.

Note that also in the 2021 near grid collapse in Texas, the immediate finger pointing was at renewables. They backed off from that argument when they learned that Solar does not generate much electricity at night. Who knew? /s

Yesterday I was meeting some other artists and talked about the same subject as shown in the following documentary. We agreed on the fact that art has nothing to do with beauty or talent, but whether it can made into a commodity, used as investment and currency. While the artist can die in poverty.

“‘His knowledge of the works in our collection was extraordinary, and he instantly understood the arc of art history and the way that we’ve deployed the collection to tell that story,’ Mitzevich says.

“He stopped in front of #BluePoles and said ‘Oh, well, this is one of the most important works of the 20th century, and you’ve hung it next to [a work by #Pollock’s wife Lee Krasner], oh and look at the de Kooning in dialogue’. And he was equally fascinated by things that he hadn’t seen before, like #SidneyNolan’s #NedKelly [series].” A)

“In 2016 a new #Liberal senator, a mere stripling of twenty-eight years, had a foolproof idea for getting himself noticed. #JamesPaterson told the media the government should sell #JacksonPollock’s #abstract #expressionist masterpiece, Blue Poles.

“Some people feel like they’ve got a real attachment to Blue Poles, and I understand that,” said Paterson, who had come to parliament from the free-market #InstituteofPublicAffairs. “I don’t think it’s a good enough reason for the Australian government to tie up such a significant amount of #money in a single painting which is hung in a #gallery in #Canberra most of the year, and which most #Australians won’t ever see face to face in their #lifetimes. It’ll only be #worth something to #taxpayers when we #sell it.” B)

This is why we vote. 🗳️

Jackson Pollock in a moment of creating his “action” art.
A closeup view of Blue Poles, created by Jackson Pollock and acquired for Australia to hang in the National Gallery.
A person admires Blue Poles from afar. As a young Art student I crept right up close to take a look at the brush strokes. And to my surprise, flakes of paint gathered beneath the painting. It looks like you can’t do it now.
