“Private equity is using its newfound control over utilities to socialize costs for the expansion of data centers,” said one critic.
Data Centers Devour Electricity. Private Equity Is Buying Utilities to Cash In.
The seizure of public utilities for the sake of profit may lead to a disaster for consumers — and the planet.

The near-complete halt of inspections and case processing activities is likely to have significant implications for the EPA’s enforcement work.
How Government Shutdowns Leave Polluting Legacies
Previous pauses in EPA enforcement indicate that a lack of federal oversight can embolden polluters.

Bobby called to tell me that after the Dodgers won there were fireworks at UCLA, where he's waiting for his second kidney surgery this coming week!

Let's hope that Bobby has as much luck as the Dodgers!

Help us raise $389 by 11/3 to stay on track!

Please chip in $10, $25, $50 or more below:

Want to see a microcosm of America? Immigrants won the World Series for the Dodgers and immigrants will be unwelcome and hunted at the victory parade.

Oh, my neighborhood is going OFF off. Car horns, fireworks, yells. Hope no one decides to burn a bus again.

My stomach is in knots asking again but I'm coming up to my deadline on Friday to keep a roof over my head. Please boost and thank you for the help I've already received, I feel completely unworthy of the kindness I've found here.

Can we give some props to Dieter Ruhle, who has been absolutely stellar on that organ throughout this entire game?

The Dodgers Stadium organist playing “The Neverending Story” during the top of the 18th inning was a nice touch.

Ohtani was the first player to reach base 7 times in a World Series game. He is also the first player to reach base 8 times in a World Series game. And he is the first player to reach base 9 times in a World Series game.

These are all the same World Series game.

Maybe the “world” in World Series is the degrees of rotation the game must experience before ending? Just one full rotation of the world

The last time a World Series game went this many innings, the White House had two wings.

It’s 2028. Snow is falling in Dodger Stadium. No one remembers what a glove is. Freddie Freeman starts tearing a baseball apart with his teeth.

Again, if you want to get a COVID19 vaccine this year, please consider getting it before RFK Jr’s fraudulent Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) meets on September 18-19.

There is every reason to believe they will further restrict access. Absolutely shameful.
RFK Jr.’s CDC may limit COVID shots to 75 and up, claim they killed kids
A battle is brewing over mRNA vaccines, which could intensify backlash against Kennedy.

Funny how her “you’re just telling voters what is wrong with Trump instead of what your policies are” argument never seems to get asked to a Republican. The entire Republican platform is just a list of grievances about people’s personal choices
