Are you aware that AI has an extremely high energy cost? Experts project the AI data centers in the USA will consume 6% of the country's total electricity by next year (ls.wisc.edu/news/the-hid...). How many idle google searches do you do in a day? I know I do A Lot. That shit adds up

Hey @taylordotbiz.bsky.social I'm listening to the Rain Road .wav from the @worldsbeyondnumber.bsky.social Patreon, am I right that this version doesn't have the ominous brass crescendo which, in episode 14, runs under Galani's thought "Well this song is totally out of our control" (48:02)?

The EHRC is meant to protect everyone’s rights. But internal documents reveal a different story: repeated meetings with anti-trans lobbyists, legal bias, and secret coordination. We filed the FOI. Here’s what we found.

FOI Exposes EHRC Bias: Private Meetings, Legal Echoes, and Policy Capture - Trans Advocacy and Complaints Collective
Let’s be honest. The Equality and Human Rights Commission is not acting like a neutral regulator. It is not standing above the fray.

It’s not just that Zohran Mamdani beat Andrew Cuomo.

It’s that he and the voters beat an entire transnational criminal syndicate of power brokers who have had a stranglehold on NYC politics for a very long time.

And they’ll be coming after him hard. He’ll need a lot of support—and protection.

***Taps the sign again*** after the SCOTUS decision stripping immigrants of due process to traffick then into foreign prisons and slavery.
The law won't save us. Nearly all authoritarian regimes legitimize their actions within the law and make their acts legal.

More lawyers need to realize this.

If Labour really want to withdraw the whip from over 100 MPs then they should definitely do that.
Under anything resembling normal times, this level of political self harm would be unimaginable, especially over a policy which does not have public support, is counter to expert opinion, will cause immeasurable harm to individuals, and will undermine the economy. These aren't normal times though.

Anyone planning to attend the mass lobby tomorrow in the House of Parliament, you need to read this thread.

Do not allow them to provoke you, try your best to ignore them when they try, and most importantly, stay safe!
PROVOKE AND PUBLICISE

Tomorrow in the Houses of Parliament the transphobes will attempt a “Provoke & Publicise” action. Provoke and Publicise was originally developed as a tactic by racist segregationists in US states like Alabama & Oklahoma to try and stop the civil rights movement there…
