@Tattie @therivercrow
i'm going to expand on this "greens can't win" thing.

what can one MP do? if you're thinking vote in parliament 1 mp is no worse than 100.

what can one mp do?

stand in front of demonstrations and ensure coverage when everyone is arrested.
give witness to uk human rights abuses in international courts and foreign parliaments.
name fash funding networks in parliament.
visit prisons and illegal detention sites.

one mp can do lots.

be happy when you vote, it might make a huge difference and set the agenda. i can't guarantee we will win if we fight. but we all lose when we don't fight.

groan at the cliche if you like but it's as true as ever: we have nothing to lose but our chains.

speccing out what an oro.kdl aka orogene package.json would look like, when using orogene's workspaces feature I'm poking at now. Is this anything? Credit to pnpm for the dependencies/dependency-groups thing, which it calls "catalogs".

I'm making things work a little different than they work in both NPM and pnpm, but I think doing things this way is WAY more intuitive in the end? Just one hard-working workspace: protocol that can pull in centrally-specified dependency versions, workspace members, or named dependency groups.

// Example for workspaces package { name my-pkg private } workspace { members { // A sub-package at this location will be accessible as // dependencies { my-subpkg workspace: } (or "dependencies": { // "my-subpkg": "workspace:" } if you're using package.json // // You can also specify what version it will bind to by using a // specifier prefix, such at workspace:^ (the default if nothing is // specified), workspace:* (the equivalent of foo *), workspace:~ // (the equivalent of foo ~1.2.3, where 1.2.3 is the current version // in the member's package.json or oro.kdl file. "./packages/my-subpkg" } dependencies { // Each of these dependencies will also be accessible as workspace: // dependencies, as if they were members, but their version only needs // to be specified once. react ^18.2.0 react-dom ^18.2.0 } dependency-groups { // This allows you to specify deps in a named group, allowing you to do // workspace:react17, for example. react17 { react ^17.0.2 react-dom ^17.0.2 } } }

It's incredible that Labor came in 3rd in Gorton & Denton thanks to the peerless electoral magic of the "Labour Together" crew, it's even funnier that Reform's candidate coined a conspiracy theory to mark his own routing:

It said high-voltage reference on the tin. I expected high-voltage, just not 100kV.
