Guys, do not use the Discord Checkpoint thing (Discord's attempt at Spotify Wrapped).
It requires enabling them access to scrape your data, and has an alarming amount of private data being used for it.
Make sure you have these disabled.

AI is a climate issue. AI is a climate crisis.
A few important points here
- Generative AI supercharged data centre growth: lobbyist and substacker lines pretending like this is just streaming are false
- Even when you consider much of the projected growth is speculative, the *likely* projects are still MASSIVE

Honestly, every left-wing group should create the tackiest cheapest ugliest trophy they can imagine and make a big show of presenting it to Trump with some obnoxious name like the Greenpeace Award for Big Beautiful Excellence in Body Odors or the ACLU Trophy for Presidential Strongly Napping.

So I need to wait an extra day for my team to play baseball? Unbelievable, I will not stand for this.
It appears that the Athletics-Blue Jays Opening Day game has been moved to from Thursday, March 26 to Friday, March 27.
The Friday had been an off day in case of inclement weather, but I guess some one remembered that Toronto has a domed stadium.

No-strings-attached, zero-means-testing, no-questions-asked cash payouts have been proven, over and over again, to be the most effective form of charity/aid going.

An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.
