DONUT DITCH DAY
Thank you to Facebook for reminding me that this is the eleventh anniversary of the day a student skipped out on the class after the midterm but left me a donut (he left a whole donut-- I ate half before I thought to take the photo):

This is xAI's center outside Memphis, where they claim the 33 big gas turbines are allowed w/o permits as "temporary mobile" sources, as one might use a small generator at a construction site, and sadly the county govt is willing to look the other way and nod at that bs.
Incredible satellite image of the 33 (!!!!) operational fossil fuel combustion engines at the site of Elon Musk's XAI data centre

My extremely hot take is that the Trump Administration is not intentionally making stocks go down and that this kind of conspiracism both gives them far too much credit and everyone else not enough.
Get people in dire financial straits. They’re much easier to control that way. Then add a shock to the system, and they’ll hand over all their rights without a fight. None of this is accidental.

anyone who has ever tried to get customer support from them knows this in their blood, it's literally impossible to talk to a human and that's intentional. you can feel the hate and disdain for their users, who generate all their value.
Facebook/Meta has long operated at a level of total negligence and irresponsibility that is *functionally indistinguishable* from malice.
Ultimately, what they *say* their intentions are must be contrasted with the company’s actual, constant horrendous actions.

In 2005, my mom died from cancer, but the real cause was the actions taken by an insurance company 12 years earlier. What happened to her was evil, hard to identify or fight, and hidden from the public by legal mechanisms. Because of that, I have no idea how often it has happened.
