This is the third person today to suggest that my equality as a human and an American citizen was a gift bestowed upon me by Democrats as opposed to an unaliable condition inherent to all people.

Democrats were the reason the rights existed in the first place. Pursing your lips to fix that you would be fighting Democrats is absolutely ridiculous 😡

On Monday, I'm recording a podcast with @ketanjoshi.co. He's going to present the strong version of THE CASE AGAINST (AI) DATA CENTERS. Tech company fuckery, discarded green pledges, the rush to gas, the empty promises that AI will help reduce emissions ... all of it. Got questions?

That movie was terrible and based on a stupid terrible trope indistinguishable from all the other movies that are also terrible and the identical trope. You can't tell them apart. They're like Nickelback songs - indistinguishable to everyone else but with some weird core audience of white dudes

we’ll spend more time this year talking about a doc outing a dead gay politician than we will about families with trans children fleeing their state governments

it’s fun to see the permitting bill going through exactly what sort of hell i thought it would go through

Erik Schlenker-Goodrich@riogranderift.bsky.social

7. I mean, the congressional representatives for Silicon Valley knows this bill would "make it easier to build data centers right after an election with bipartisan rage against shoving them down the throats of local communities." Which is precisely why Jentleson is bullshitting us.
