We must require ALL data centers and other extremely large corporate users of electricity to generate their own electricity at their own expense If we don't do this, we are either idiots and/or masochists.
ADVICE: If you or a loved one are in the hospital, write down everything. Nurse/doc so and so said I had to stop taking (med) for this reason. All up to and including discharge instructions. The first thing they teach you in nursing school is document everything. Same goes other way around.
visão em primeira pessoa de eu segurando o livro “SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES & Other Lessons from the Crematory” da autora Caitlin Doughty, em cima das minhas coxas. A capa é fosca, off-white, com texto em preto e uma chama cobre cintilante no fundo.
“We are, sadly, self-aware creatures. Even if we move through the day finding creative ways to deny our mortality, no matter how powerful, loved, or special we may feel, we know we are ultimately doomed to death and decay. This is a mental burden shared by precious few other species on Earth.”
Spain has recently outpaced the US in GDP growth, emerging as one of the fastest-growing major advanced economies. As of 2024–2025, Spain’s economy is growing at a rate over 3% annually, exceeding the US (~2%) and Eurozone (~1%) averages.
Donald is such an uninformed idiot.
Just an FYI to all those anti-sag gamers:
When video game companies fire the og actors wanting a sag contract signed and hire non-union talent overseas? That's union-busting. Saying "idc about that" makes you unequivocally anti-union.
“Did you hear about XYZ? They’ve done awful things!”
“Oh no, what did they do?!”
“They have a weird fetish!”
“It’s not really my thing, but I guess as long as they’re not hurting anyone…”
“But it’s weird and gross!”
“Have they engaged in anything harmful IRL?”
“No”
“Then I don’t care…”
“>:(“
My memory of the "It's the beginning" quote as used on the Chrono Trigger: The Brink of Time quote is lingering into greater knowledge of a weirdly shared musical history with Moon Child!
Coachella is removing these videos, so they might be about to learn about the Strokesand Effect.
Poster for the 1997 film The Night Flyer. It is a Lightening streaked storm filled sky lit with a cloud obscured full moon, with a small skymaster plane coming in for a landing on an deserted runway. The shadow of the plane on the asphalt makes a giant bat
Stephen King's The Night Flier.
An often overlooked movie that deserves more attention. Richard Dees, a tabloid reporter, investigates a serial killer that travels in a black skymaster plane, killing and dressing in the style of a vampire. Very x-files and Kolchak the night stalker vibes
Say what you will about the worst members of the Roberts Court, but they all make sure their wives are in on the grift.
Jane Roberts, Martha Alito and Ginni Thomas are equal partners with their husbands in the grand project of destroying the United States and enriching themselves in the process.
Tim Cook donated $1M to Trump’s inauguration.
He fawned over Trump and gifted him a 24-karat gold plaque (as Apple lobbied for tariff exemptions).
Apple donated to Trump’s White House ballroom.
And it removed ICE tracking apps from its stores following a demand from the DOJ.
Remember this.
All Texans deserve water.
Wall Street and Big Tech are coming for our water across Texas. They want to monopolize it for their own greed.

JUST IN: 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iranian state media says reports of a second round of US-Iran talks in Pakistan are false.
"The news published by the US is part of their propaganda campaign and a 'blame game' aimed at pressuring Iran."
Palantir Goes Mask-Off For Fascism. It Won’t End Well.
Earlier this month, Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that "Palantir Technologies (PLTR) has proven to have great war fighting capabilities and equipment. Just ask our enemies!!!" — notably including the stock ticker, because why not just…
One thing I always hear evangelical christians say is that without god, life has no purpose.
I’m here to tell you that if my “purpose” in life were to glaze some divine being to satisfy their narcissism, I would believe that to be WORSE than outright nihilism.
Just registered copyright for my book. First time. US Copyright Office sure likes to hide the Single application link (which is $45) really well, doesn't it? The Standard app is $65. No, I'm not giving you extra money. Thanks though.
Glad I knew the price difference going in. 🙄
i think iron man convinced Americans that tech oligarchs are actually secretly cool super heroes rather than cartoonishly evil elites who believe they’re inherently better than you.
The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.
It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.
...maybe - just maybe - he's actually the worst president in history
Everything the Ellison family could own if Paramount buys Warner Bros:

MTV
DC Studios
Nickelodeon
Comedy Central
Cartoon Network
And more...
This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped.
State AGs must step in and block it.
Any candidate that takes money from Palantir should not receive your vote.
Co-founder Joe Lonsdale is pouring millions into a PAC to buy off Democrats, especially in California.

However wrongheaded Jonah Hill's cancel culture comedy might seem on the surface, its reality is worse.
I legitimately though this was Joe Pantoliano. Not even just in the photo, in the trailer! For the record Jonah Hill is 42 and Joey Pants is 74
Here's what I'll say about Keanu Reeves in this film I haven't seen: Jonah Hill bringing on one of the most likable movie stars around these days to play so thoroughly 𝑢𝑛𝑙𝑖𝑘𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 canny against-type casting - but casting against type sure doesn't always work, and if this doesn't, it doesn't.
Side Note: Jonah Hill’s new alleged satire “Outcome” completely falls flat due to this: it minces the narrative trying to make his stand-in in Keanu Reeves (really) charming enough that we feel bad he might get canceled…
…and it just weaponize therapy speak to whine about the Me Too movement.
Like when Jonah Hill publicly told his girlfriend that she wasn’t “respecting his boundaries” by being seen in a swimsuit as a professional surfer
as part of the freakout on the right about the supposed "Islamification of Texas" giant aggregator accounts on X are pushing to boycott HEB because it sells Halal meat (and has for at least 4 years) www.chron.com/texas/articl...
There's no way in hell you're gonna get Texans to en masse stop shopping at HEB.
