They erased the new Banksy mural in London. But the stain remains.
Side-by-side images of Banksy’s mural on the Royal Courts of Justice in London. On the left, the artwork appears faded and scrubbed, leaving only a ghostly outline of a judge raising a gavel over a protester holding a placard. On the right, the mural is fully visible in sharp black and white stencil, showing a judge in a traditional white wig and robes striking down at a protester who defends himself with a bloodied sign.

Louisiana has to build three new natural gas power plants to accommodate the "AI" data center that Meta just crammed through because said center will use *Three Times* as much electricity (and, thus, attendant resources) as the *Entire City Of New Orleans*, every year.

Y'all this isn't sustainable.
La. regulators approve Entergy power plants for Meta’s AI data center
Louisiana Public Service Commissioners voted four to one to approve Entergy’s three new gas plants to power Meta’s largest-ever data center.

Today, 139 EPA employees were placed on administrative leave for signing an email sent to their boss about concerns at their federal agency.

This is America, now.

I have always said that @standupforscience.bsky.social is about science AND DEMOCRACY. Here it is, in action.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

📣 OFFICIAL STATEMENT from our Founder & Executive Director @cdelawalla.bsky.social on the unfolding situation at the #EPA.

Stand with the brave EPAers here➡️ act.standupforscience.net/forms/epa-ad...

#DeclarationofDissent
A graphic from “Stand Up for Science” with a black background and white and red text. The top features the “Stand Up for Science” logo. The heading reads “Official Statement –” followed by a quote: “All we know is that Administrator Lee Zeldin made the following statement to the Daily Caller:” Below is a block quote attributed to Zeldin: ‘Unfortunately, a small number of employees signed onto a public letter, written as agency employees, using their official work title, that was riddled with misinformation regarding agency business.’ Below the quote, bold white and red text says: “This was not just a public letter – it was emailed to him by employees at the EPA on Monday morning, and published after it was sent to him.” In the bottom right corner, red italicized text reads “More on next page” with a red arrow pointing right. A continuation of the graphic with a black background and white and red text. The paragraph reads: “he has not formally responded to his employees, and they have been placed on administrative leave. Though we are still gathering information on this situation, we condemn these actions. These are dedicated civil servants whose career goal is to keep Americans safe.” This is followed by the name and title: – Colette Delawalla, Founder & Executive Director At the bottom, the red and white “Stand Up for Science” logo appears again.

When I saw the disgusting "trump Gaza" video this morning, the bile rose to my throat.

I won't share it. Instead, help me promote this counter narrative by Tala, from Gaza.

"Gaza is not yours to take. Gaza is ours, and we are still here. This is our land."

BRAVO to her strength and DEFIANCE. 🥹💪
