I am once again asking why these data centers are all fucking SECRETS

"A controversial plan to build a 2.2-million-square-foot data center on farmland may still happen. A rural community... is looking to settle a lawsuit recently filed by a development firm working for an unidentified tech giant."

I am following this debut, and I don’t know anyone who can explain why an opinion journalist has been chosen as Editor-in-Chief. Did we need more opinion at CBS?

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.

since newswriters and others recently ratified a new union contract with @wgaeast.bsky.social, I’d suggest everyone covered force her to try to get rid of them and then absolutely wreck her with ULPs

“The Netanyahu government is committing a genocide on the Palestinian people. This is not a matter of opinion. This is a matter of fact that has been established by the global leaders who study genocide."

- Michigan's lieutenant governor, Garlin Gilchrist at the Arab Convention hosted by the ADC.

I’ve been following Palestine protests for a long time. I could be wrong, but this feels different. Protests in Italy are big and numerous. General strike already declared for Friday.

Loads of protests planned in the UK.

Spain, Greece, Germany, Belgium, Sweden either already happening or planned.

The former mayor of Barcelona, Ada Colau, is on the Flotilla. She was on the Sirius, intercepted by the Israelis.

She released a video saying she’s been kidnapped by Israel.

Background image - evening, boat in ocean flying Palestinian flag with FFC amd TM logos. Text: We will never stop challenging Israel's illegal blockade - a siege weaponized to starve, silence, and imprison Palestinians.  Stand with us to break the siege and hold governments and institutions accountable for enabling Israel's crimes.

EMERGENCY: ISRAEL ATTACKS GSF
Israel has attacked the Global Sumud Flotilla in international waters. People of conscience have been abducted.
The flotilla broke no laws. What is illegal is Israel’s genocide, Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, and the Israel’s use of starvation as a weapon.

All countries that recently recognised the state of Palestine have publicly declared recognising Gaza as part of Palestine. This means that, legally, they must recognise that Israel kidnapped/ is kidnapping their own citizens in international waters while they were / are trying to reach Palestine.

Mario Guevara is our neighbor. We do not tolerate his unconstitutional detention by the United States government.

Two-Thirds of Working-Age Renters Struggle to Afford Basic Needs Rising rents are squeezing renter households, leaving them with less residual income to pay for other needs. But inflation has also pushed up the cost

Rising rents are leaving households with less income to pay for other needs, and inflation has also pushed up the cost of other necessities.

Our new paper finds that, after paying for rent, 2/3 of working-age renters cannot afford their basic needs.

This is why your electric bill is going up

Folks, having a solid crew of comrades you can rely on in real life or virtually is always essential and in the coming years we are all going to need to lean on each other.

AI Data Centers Are Sending Power Bills Soaring Wholesale electricity costs as much as 267% more than it did five years ago in areas near data centers. That’s being passed on to customers.

"Data centers are proliferating in VA and a blind man in [MD] is suddenly contending with sharply higher power bills...It’s an increasingly dramatic ripple effect of the AI boom as energy-hungry data centers...[pull]...households into paying for the digital economy" www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...

1/ DEVELOPING: A journalist was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Hospital following another incident with an ICE agent at 26 Federal Plaza, an immigration court in NYC. The last I heard, he was getting X-rays for his lower back.

Also despite what various founders of Vox say now the Iraq war was quite unambiguously depraved and beyond the pale to anyone with even a little bit of a conscience and critical thinking skills at the time!

The way I felt seeing a news story that the US might attack Venezuela is exactly how I felt in late 2002 when I saw a news story saying the US might attack Iraq: completely insane
