AI data centers are sucking up communities’ power & water.

AI is being used by corporations to shaft consumers and is threatening young workers’ job prospects.

So Trump wants to ram through a ban on state AI regulation — all to help out his Big Tech billionaire friends.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

When the dotcom bubble burst, the S&P 500 lost 43% of its total value (Nasdaq was 75%). Cisco was the most valuable company, worth about 4% of the total.

Today, Nvidia is 9% of the total S&P 500, and the top 5 companies equal about 30%. Feels like when this crashes it is going to be very bad.

Revisiting Final Fantasy XIII: Lightning Returns makes me wish for FFXVI-2. Some weird new adventure in Valisthea that utilizes the remaining characters and changes the battle system in some way. And a dress sphere/garment system. C'mon Square give the people what they want. #FinalFantasy
