Fresh article from the daily covering our community meeting this past weekend! www.michigandaily.com/news/ann-arb...

Here's how you can help stop DTE's fast track data center deal!!

Our takeaway is that data centers exist in the context of their environments and exacerbate existing utility and pollution concerns. What does that mean for us? Longer blackouts after a strong gust of wind? Higher concentrations of pfas? Who knows! It's all under an NDA 🫠🫠🫠

Here's how you can help stop DTE's fast track data center deal!!

Tomorrowwwww!!!!

Let's remember trans folks 365 days of the year 💖 xtramagazine.com/power/activi...

It's really easy to get dunks in with the current news, but don't lose track of what's at stake in your struggle. For us, it's not just our land, water, and health. It's also our ability to live in a world that prevents genocide and war instead of enabling it through automation.

A nice obituary for Alice, who was going to be recognized as one of The Post 50. I hate that we now have to live without this phenomenal woman. #GiftLink wapo.st/49WOdx1

If you're excited about low stakes ways to get our voices heard, be on the lookout for our Postcards for Peace events!!! At our first, we had a lovely time writing 350 very patient and kind letters. (And if you're excited about early onset arthritis pls help us stamp these oh no)

Ch3 ends with environmental impact of data centers, and I MUST mention the efforts to stop the UM data center, which led to @ali-alkhatib.com book club, which led to convo where I learned about Williams' book! A great pause point for the night; check out their work: @stopthedata.bsky.social

Check out this great coverage of what we're up against by Elena Nicholson!! www.michigandaily.com/opinion/colu...

Thank you for the wonderful coverage of our uphill struggle! Of note is the exemption from municipal law that UM holds in the state constitution, making this data center extra tough to resist. Come to our next gathering or reach out to learn more about plugging in so we can unplug this monster!!!

we spoke to @stopthedata.bsky.social’s amber fellows on why the town of ypsilanti is rallying against a proposed AI data center that will be used by nuclear weapons researchers and the personal trauma of fighting this as a Japanese-American person 80 years after from the Hiroshima/Nagasaki bombings

Big AI data center and infrastructure investments continue to bring less money and more problems!!!!

Happening now!!

Come thru tomorrow! Let's annoy our favorite politicians with an unreasonable amount of mail (they'll get us back during the midterms dw lmao)

"Graham Hardig said governments should work together to restrict how AI can be integrated into national security to prevent it from interfering with highly dangerous weapons...That means prohibiting things like autonomous bioweapon development and AI’s integration into nuclear weapons systems."

Postcards for peace! Saturday Nov 8th at the Ann Arbor Friends Meeting House on Hill Street in Ann Arbor. We will have food and supplies to write to those in power that we do NOT want to invest $1.2 billion into the nuclear arms race.

Lots of fun activities in the park today!! Can't wait to see y'all. Breakfast lunch and dinner provided

If you care about public health, you have to become a revolutionary. If you care about medical research, you have to become a revolutionary. If you care about climate change, labor conditions, the well-being of children in war zones—you have to become a revolutionary. crimethinc.com/becomeananar...

Excellent article just dropped by Nathan Kim at the MDaily! "Judging from the lab’s activity as a whole,[...] there seems to be no reasonable possibility that the data center will be independent from LANL’s primary mission of nuclear weapons development." www.michigandaily.com/opinion/op-e...
