Ok I'm going to ban myself again for a couple days because I need to get a bunch of stuff done and staring into the void is not helping. Hopefully I'll see a bunch of you around town later this weekend, even if we don't know who each other are.

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”
Uruguay’s Renewable Charge: A Small Nation, A Big Lesson For The World
Uruguay built a power grid that runs 99% on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. Here’s how its bold energy overhaul became a global model.

In case you've seen the story about “grok now only generates images for paid users”, it's untrue. Apparently everyone just reported it because… it was what grok told them 🤦🏼

As folks protest, remember that kettling (surrounding & detaining groups) is a thing. Consider your personal risk level & preparedness (meds, when last ate, etc) before joining a group on a bridge, on a highway, or in a tunnel.

The more innocent people they kill and call terrorists, the more people realize that "terrorist" just means "people the government wants to eliminate without the law getting in the way"
SOUTHCOM said 3 people were killed in boat strikes on 12/30.
@theintercept.com started asking questions.
Now SOUTHCOM says 11 people were killed.
They call them "narco-terrorists," we call them what they are: "civilians."

ICE only has about 20-30,000 employees nationwide. Including desk jobs so there's even fewer armed. It's smaller than the NYPD.
There's a reason they do their mega raids on one or two cities at a time, and it's not optics. It's because that's all the dudes they've got.
Something to keep in mind.

You think FIFA will revoke his peace prize if he bombs one of the countries the US is hosting the world cup with?
Trump, in a sit down interview on Fox News aired just now, said the US will be conducting land strikes against the cartels.
"We are gonna start now hitting land, with regard to the cartels. The cartels are running Mexico."

If it wasn’t already clear, it is definitely now the patriotic duty of every decent person in this country to videotape ICE anytime and anywhere they appear. It won’t stop the Trump administration from lying, but it will help provide counter evidence.
