Monterey Park becomes the first city in California to ban "all data centers within city limits" Residents of the small enclave east of LA not only killed their city's proposed 250,000 square foot data center, they pushed city council to ban them altogether

Last night, after an hours-long public hearing, Monterey Park became the first city in California to pass an ordinance permanently banning data centers.

The city council voted unanimously to declare data centers a public nuisance, and to "prohibit all data centers within city limits."

Back to the simple natural order of things…….. not human arrogance based on destruction of our water,air, environment for profit…… for the 1%

In a world that asks us to harden, choosing kindness is its own kind of rebellion.

Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...

It's cool that the NWSL is coming to Columbus, but last night the city voted to give a park that serves literally the poorest neighborhood in Columbus to the team's owners -- the odious Haslams -- as a practice facility. Shitty and unnecessary in every possible way.

I just saw a wild leftist take about masking being performative and, my good bitch, my partner has become disabled from long COVID from three years ago.

We're not asking you to not live your lives, but for damn, wastewater COVID shows about 200k infections/day in the States *today*.

Do not stop talking about the Epstein files!

CNN put together a montage of Trump saying as far back as March 9 that his war against Iran "is going to be finished pretty quickly," then him saying that same thing over and over for the past six weeks

Michigan gas station clerk saves teen from alleged kidnapper after she mouths ‘help’ In Hamtramck, Abdulrahman Abohatem placed himself between 16-year-old girl and man before police arrest

Then, she mouthed … to me, like with no sound: ‘Help,’” Abohatem recounted to the outlet. He described getting out from behind the front counter’s protective glass, placing himself between the man and the girl and ordering him to leave the business.

This chart shows the wildfire activity in the US over the last 10 years by month. 2026 us so far off the chart it should have it's own chart. The el Nino isn't even here yet. Wait until you see how bad this summer will get.

📌MEDIA: Stop calling Jared Kushner a "high-level negotiator." He's a damn thief operating in his repulsive family's best interests not ours.

A clip from The New York Times reads: "But only the entities that officially paid the tariffs are eligible to recover that money. That means that the fuller universe of people affected by Mr. Trump’s policies — including millions of Americans who paid higher prices for the products they bought — are not able to apply for direct relief. The extent to which consumers realize any gain hinges on whether businesses share the proceeds, something that few have publicly committed to do. Some have started to band together in class-action lawsuits in the hopes of receiving a payout."

The average American family paid $1,700 in tariffs last year, according to the bipartisan Congressional Joint Economic Committee. Few will ever see any of that money back. The refunds will go to companies, if doled out at all. What a joke.

A round, fried hors d'oeuvre sits on a plate with a shocked expression. It is surrounded by others like it, except for an empty spot next to it.
