The data center mania happening at a time when climate change is already such a serious and obvious problem feels like a taunt. You are pissing me off on purpose

Jeff Sharlet@jeffsharlet.bsky.social · last wk.

"By the end of 2030," reports NYT, the amount of energy used by data centers"is expected to quadruple, eclipsing the power used by all countries in South America and Africa combined." This is extinctionism.

Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed is so good. Need a second season at least! I’m rarely this excited for the release of a new episode but Widows Bay and Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed became a weekly event for me. MOAR!

If we had started work on High-Speed Rail back in 2009, we would now be able to travel from Portland to Seattle in a little over an hour with stops in Olympia and Tacoma. Under an hour, non-stop.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

ICE is not about immigration. ICE is not about the southern border. ICE is about normalizing paramilitary force on our streets. It cannot be reformed. It cannot be retrained. ICE must be abolished.

NEW: The ICE office that customarily probes employee misconduct is being refocused to investigate ICE critics, opening hundreds of "doxing and threat" cases and subpoenaing tech companies to unmask anonymous posters. Detention facility inspections, meanwhile, are plummeting. by @regret.bsky.social

ICE’s Internal Watchdog Is Now Investigating Online Critics

The Office of Professional Responsibility has opened more than 100 cases over what ICE officials call “incidents of doxing and threats” against ICE employees.

I will lay it out for you nice and simple. The folks trying to stop new housing in Seattle are literally killing people. When ppl don’t have or can’t afford housing, they die. Or could be fast or slow but they die. Period. And these folks are fine with this because they are ecofascists.

For a lot of dogs, if you use non-confrontational body language and put your fist out towards their nose, they’ll sniff out of curiosity and anyone watching will get the impression this dog is your irl friend.

My unpopular opinion is that while we can talk about booping a dog's snoot, we should not ACTUALLY boop the snoot. That's rude. Instead, we should train our dogs to touch our hand with their nose so that they boop their own noses. Consensual booping only.

Oklahoma City Pride has banned Starbucks from their parade. You can't be for LGBTQ+ rights and union-bust workers asking for fair protections, fair pay, and accessible healthcare. It's as simple as that.

The police, generally, are not safe around dogs whether they are the public’s or “their own.”

if a police officer can't handle a dog without immediately shooting it, they should not be a police officer.

NEW: Texas middle schoolers could be taught about a Christian revolutionary war movement that never existed. The so-called “Black Robe Regiment” is a favorite myth of David Barton and other Christian nationalists who are leading massive revisions of Texas curricula to focus on US “exceptionalism.”

Scholars Call the Black Robe Regiment a Myth. It Could Soon Be Taught in Texas Schools.

The State Board of Education meets this week to vote on a K–12 curriculum some experts warn elevates Christianity over other faiths.

How long it takes and how hard it is to undo the damage will depend in large part on the political will of the people elected to do it. If you get hand-wringing caveat peddlers who want to deliberate for years before acting it'll never happen. Plan has to be ready on day one

We don't have to get used to it actually.

The "duped voter" narrative is a comforting myth. If only we had better messaging. The reality is tens of millions of voters looked at a platform of mass deportation, ethnic cleansing, state violence, and the dismantling of civil rights, clearly understood it, and said, "Yes, that is what I want."

The obvious question is to ask what is the point of the article. And the answer is means testing. By saying the rich don't deserve public goods it makes it easier to say someone just above the poverty line doesn't either. They want public goods to be shit.
