Opposition to data centers appears to be an issue that can bring a bunch of different people together. Let's do it! Broad coalitions are needed to take on oligarchs.
I'm in Arkansas, and the response to data centers here has been enlightening. Too many people got burned by crypto miners dumping a shipping container full of servers running 24/7 in their backyard, and now they want blood. It's a very broad coalition of people.
4. I’ve spent some time tracking and attending local populist responses to ai data centers. Despite some critiques from left that it’s all repackaged “nimby bullshit” (as I’ve been told), I have seen organic multiracial coalitions on this issue. Esp. in places with strong environmental racism orgs

This is unreal. An AUSA talking like that in open court is about as close as you can come to a total breakdown. Never heard of anything like it.

IT IS NOT “ALL IN YOUR HEAD”. THIS IS NOW PROVED BY ACTUAL SCIENCE.
Many years ago when I was a young and sprightly lolephant, I was told my asthma was because I was “too emotional”; & I was “addicted” to my inhaler.
For *asthma*, not even complex things like ME, fibromyalgia, long covid & endo.

"the relationship between reporting persisting symptoms & increased healthcare consumption could not be explained by cognitive-behavioural factors, depressive symptoms or neuropsychological functioning."

This guy is a great example of why the way to handle people scared of cool progressive stuff is to ignore them, do the cool progressive stuff anyway, then watch as their protests quietly fade because the cool progressive stuff is inarguably good.

Right now the only thing keeping me reading Wuthering Heights is the conviction that they are all going to get exactly what they deserve.

This or just dumping people *in the woods* AND sending folks out w/o their phone or I.D.
Volunteers w/ Safe Haven wait at the gate & do sweeps of the woods, with warm clothes, a burner, and a ride home, "so no one is left alone at the gate."

I spent the evening outside the Whipple federal building in Minneapolis, where the feds have been releasing people they detained — often for no discernible reason — into the freezing cold... wearing whatever little clothing they had on at the time they were taken.
