A summer evening peek for #PinkMon, the delicate riverside form of loosestrife, an invasive plant here. In the background, the towers of Unit 1, maybe resurrected for data center use ... and the infamous Unit 2, of Three Mile Island.

new from me today: not all data centers are created environmentally equal — and building them in states with cleaner grids and more access to water could go a long way in preventing environmental catastrophe
If the US Has to Build Data Centers, Here’s Where They Should Go
A new analysis tries to calculate the coming environmental footprint of AI in the US and finds that the ideal sites for data centers aren’t where they’re being built.

So the ostracized ostrich loons decided to smear feces and egg the CFIA office in Kelowna. It just shows the level of intelligence we're dealing with. It also explains why the BC interior has the lowest childhood vaccination rates. globalnews.ca/news/1152042...
Kelowna CFIA office vandalized with fecal matter, eggs | Globalnews.ca
There is no word from police on whether this incident has any connection to a recent cull of ostriches at a farm in Edgewood, where avian flu had been detected last December.

Just in case you thought this was about trans athletes. This was solely about creating a fascist and racist gender bureaucracy over what constitutes being feminine enough to be considered a woman.
They're targeting cis women who may be intersex and banning them from sport.

Senate Democrats walked away empty-handed, and don’t let anyone tell you different.
Tim Kaine and the others bought the lie that Republicans would negotiate on extending the ACA subsidies. They won’t.
Dems got played, Schumer failed to keep his caucus together, and the American people got nothing.

“If you’re COVID conscious, they want to psychologize you, stigmatize you, threaten you, until you “go back to normal.”
Living with Long COVID often feels like living in a horror movie. Along with your disease comes a creepy Hive Mind refusal to acknowledge the dangers of COVID infection. In Vince Gilligan's new Apple TV show Pluribus, the Hive Mind comes to life:

"Pluribus" captures the isolation of COVID-awareness in a COVID denialist world
For years I've described having Long COVID as living in a horror movie. Now that horror movie (well, prestige Apple TV show) is here.

I will not support the Republican bill that’s on the Senate floor because it fails to do anything of substance to fix America’s healthcare crisis.

That means in 2025, this extremely contagious disease spread consistently in our country for the first time since 1998.
This was preventable, which makes it embarrassing -- in more ways than you might realize:
