A contractor building Meta's data center flushed its "closed-loop" cooling system straight into Cheyenne's sewer. It carried a bacterium and knocked the city's water-reuse system offline for months. They sell these as sealed systems that barely touch the water. This one poisoned a city's.

Not just Elon Musk. And they don't need their #wealth doubling every year to TAKE EVERYTHING FROM YOU. If the global top 0.1% (~$105T) grows at just 20% per year, they fully own the world in just 12 years. (1.2/1.045)^t = 550/105 → t = 12. That's how capital compounds. #EndOligarchy #NoKings

Piers Morgan asked Gary Stevenson if a trillionaire who gives Nazi salutes and kills sick and starving children to get tax cuts is a force for good or evil. The absurdity is unreal. Notice how the oligarchy's puppets never even try to answer Gary's 🧵🔻 #WealthTax #Limitarianism #MediaCapture

Meta has patented an AI device that tracks your emotions and watches you take your meds.

I wrote about the "hot surveillance summer" trend, why so many West Village fashion girlies are posting AI glasses selfies, and how, for thousands of people (not me!!! lol), cameras on your face have officially gone from creepy to chic.

In case it wasn’t clear, I think there are a lot of mistakes and beliefs that people can change and — with effort and good faith — try to make right. Rape is not one of those. You cannot rehabilitate a rapist. There is no room for rapists in our movement.

This might be hopelessly naive of me, but I don’t think the combined influence of all the biggest fashion houses on the planet could convince ordinary people that fancy perv glasses are somehow not perv glasses. The ick operates on a different level.

Yes. Every time Portnoy gets called out, he blames the interviewer. Especially if the journalist is a woman. How did @amnanawaz.bsky.social not know this or see my int w him from 2012? More importantly, why is @pbsnews.org platforming a rape joke making, dangerous man? youtu.be/B7QTahhIBqI?...

tRump claimed that over 375,000 people showed up at the America 250 event ahead of his address, adding that 150,000 stayed despite the delay in his address. 🤥 Funny how the videos and photos disagree with him. 😂

David Streever sent an email criticizing the head of ICE after federal agents fatally shot two Americans. Although he did not threaten anyone, he soon found himself under unwanted scrutiny from federal agents, who visited his home & later tracked him to a hotel after he returned from a family trip.

It was a big beautiful bill… for the wealthy! It was a big UGLY bill for everyone else.

Did Mayor Mamdani just answer Donald's inane question in the most patriotic way possible?

She worried about his fans thinking she called him sexist The more important issue is why didn't she call him sexist. There's plenty of evidence
