This is a big one! I spent over 3 months untangling all the climate risks of big tech's AI boom - it's not just energy and water, it's extending the life of fossil fuels, causing environmental injustices already, and amplifying social issues that already put us at climate risk. youtu.be/MRiRmxnwlCo

Remember how Elon said that Trump was in the Epstein files and that’s why he won’t let them be released and he apparently knew all about that but then decided to be friends with Trump again a week later so he just deleted that tweet and doesn’t mention it and no one regards that as a bit of an issue

My friend told me when she asked her brother which headshot was better, he said "just ask ChatGPT". IMO the ask isn't just about the headshot, it's an opportunity to connect and talk to one another, but he unintentionally denied that opportunity.

New — While some states have received SNAP benefits for November and USDA is supposedly pushing through all federal payments soon, that doesn’t erase the psychological terror of the last few weeks.
I spoke with 20+ SNAP recipients in 16 states about preparing for a possible future with no food:

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."
