Indiana told the public it gave less than $1 million in data center subsidies in 2025. The real number? $655 million. And $561 million of that went to a single company: Amazon. While Hoosiers pay sales tax on groceries, Amazon paid nothing. This isn’t economic development. It’s a heist.

These data centers do not produce jobs. These centers raise electricity rates and create electric shortages. These centers use tens of millions of gallons of water and discharge toxic water, causing environmental pollution and noise pollution. Why are they getting billion-dollar tax breaks???

“Nearly 50,000 Lake Tahoe residents are being told to find a new power provider because the grid is being re-routed to A.I. data centers.”

“I have lived for 68 years without AI.”

Today I introduced a joint resolution to halt all data center construction in SC. We need a responsible, transparent plan before moving forward. This is about getting it right. johnsonforsc.com #SCPolitics #Accountability

Awesome view from Artemis II this morning.

Just wait until these eyesore monstrosities want to come to your neighborhood. Goodbye trees. Expect to hear a constant, electrical humming, warmer temperatures and higher energy bills. Fight like hell to keep data centers out of your area.

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Crypto, AI, AIPAC, and other fascism funders are spending millions of dollars to buy as many Democratic politicians as they can. The Illinois primaries showed us how we can organize to fight back.

Hello. I would like to celebrate the lost art of the compilation album as an eye and ear opening path into pleasures previously unknown. It might be a sampler, it might be a mix album but it's a person's singular vision of a particular genre or theme. Thread below of some favourites

This loss really stings

no amount of state propaganda will ever convince me this man is my enemy

The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.

Good night Bluesky family. ❤️ youtube.com/shorts/3Ayyw...

Senator Chris Van Hollen calls Israel’s claim that Hamas has been stealing U.N. aid in Gaza ‘a big lie’ on Face the Nation on Sunday. For months Israeli officials have alleged Hamas has been diverting humanitarian relief - a justification for blocking desperately needed supplies!

Grok and ChatGPT are just Magic 8 Balls for a dumber, digital age and anyone who uses it should be shunned

Data centers are among the top 10 water-consuming industries. powering these facilities and AI infrastructure with renewable energy sources like solar and wind helps reduce their indirect water use, But, there's a war on science and climate change! unless it's promoting AI 😔

Fuck Spotify and while we’re at it fuck CEO Daniel Ek

"I’m joining the BDS movement calling for a sustained global boycott until it ends operations in apartheid Israel." Fashion and sustainability campaigner, Venetia La Manna, joins the BDS call to #BoycottZARA. Boycott ZARA until it ends its criminal complicity.

Sorry, but the appeals to patriotism just don't sit well in 2025. People are being imprisoned and tortured because they crossed made up lines on a map drawn by a bunch of dudes who didn't know how to wash their dicks. Maybe we can move past the nation state worship!

Cannot emphasize this enough. On the whole, police don’t solve crimes for shit, and they don’t prevent crimes for shit. They are actively bad at both. The average Law & Order fan would be stunned to tears after following around real cops for a day.

Thomas Jefferson was 44 when he began what many in 2025 STILL consider a romantic tryst or loving affair with Sally Hemings. Ms. Hemings had no legal capacity to consent to such a relationship not only because she was enslaved, Jefferson's property, BUT ALSO BECAUSE SHE WAS 14-YEARS-OLD. /1

This is an evergreen, but it's one for a reason: A billion dollars is the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work to prevent the former with the same intensity and ruthlessness as we work to prevent the latter.
