A few very important things to point out here The first is that this analysis tells me a huge, uncontrolled data centre build-out in the US still has huge climate impacts even if plugged into the grid Undeniably better w/ grid but it masks and disconnects the climate impacts from the data centre
In the rush to build data centers, companies are starting to use their own off grid gas generators. This results in much higher emissions – 60% to 80% – compared with using their local electricity grid and risks locking in longer-term fossil dependence. www.theclimatebrink....

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted
We are watching a coup d’état attempt unfold in real time in Brazil. I’m consumed by desperation.

A wild story: the CEO of a US energy company whose plans were discussed during the Witkoff-Kushner-Putin negotiations resigns. Why? He learned that his company's main investor is a sanctioned Russian company, not the UAE www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

My latest on what European investigators are uncovering about Russia’s attacks across Europe. Meanwhile, the traitor in chief continues to reward war criminal Putin and give Russia a green light to escalate.

🧵🧵🧵 The NY Times posted a 15-minute video today in which I got to tell NYT what’s wrong with its coverage. They said they saw my critical posts on Bluesky and invited me to do a video with them to air my grievances. Weird, right? I didn’t hold back. I blasted their sanewashing of MAGA extremism.

⚡️⚡️FORTY PER CENT OF GLOBAL SHIPPING IS DEDICATED TO MOVING COAL AND GAS ⚡️⚡️ And TWO THIRDS of the energy derived from coal and gas is used up before it reaches consumers . Join us at the Paddle for the Planet on 14 November to demand a just transition now! risingtide.org.au/paddle @ketanjoshi.co
40% of *everything being shipped everywhere on Earth* is fossil fuels Just an absolute laughing-stock clown-show of an energy source. This is laughably absurd, why do we treat this like it's normal and good Fossil fuels are a satirical fuel www.irena.org/-/media/File...

Billions of dollars’ worth of contracts predicting oil would fall and the S&P 500 would rise were placed about 15 minutes before Trump announced a U-turn on Iran in a post on Truth Social. CFTC staff began to investigate...then were told to lay off. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

In 2023, Vice reported that tech advisor Marc Andreeessen had included Filippo Tommaso Marinetti (co-author of the 1919 Fascist Manifesto) on his written list of the “patron saints” of “techno-optimism”. (Andreessen now advises Elon Musk’s DOGE”) 1/ www.vice.com/en/article/m...

You cannot "reform" something built to abduct, assault, terrorize, traffic & kill. You can only abolish it. And that goes both for ICE & the MAGA Murder Regime that has unleashed its full occupation & assault on us.
The NYPD just released surveillance video of the ICE shooting (which occurred off camera). Two men in civilian clothes run up to a car with guns drawn. One second later, one man begins smashing the butt of his gun into the driver’s side window. The driver appears to panic and hit the gas.

Curtis Yarvin praising Hitler, Peter Thiel ranting nonstop about the Antichrist…and no one asks JD Vance about his deranged gurus? I’m old enough to remember when we had to talk about Obama’s pastor for a year or so. www.rawstory.com/jd-vance-cur...
