TIL that Voltaire Place is part of the old Grosse Pointe Farms raceway. It began as a horse track in 1895 and switch to auto racing in 1900. Henry Ford won his first race here in 1901. https://t.co/Me4jvGTJQk
@DistrictDetroit it'd be great if you guys would start building all the housing and commercial spaces you promised to build. We dont need more parking lots. Stop turning the city into one big parking lot. You'd probably make more money actually creating buildings to lease out
This was promised to Detroit over 10-20 years ago. First around Comerica Park (Foxtown). Then around LCA (District Detroit). If you look at the renderings hard enough you can still imagine 22 blocks of housing, dining & world class entertainment.

What the data center in Dowagiac, Michigan sounds like 24/7.
There are houses all around it.
They want to expand, but won't meet with constituents.
These guys don't even attempt to be halfway decent neighbors.
This is extremely shameful.

"I was raped by an Israeli soldier inside a darkened shipping container while handcuffed and shackled on a Gaza aid flotilla.
They also used water torture and beatings."
The matter is even more shameful when the whole world is silent and toothless on this ๐ญ
โHow did we go from paper straws to data centres?โ
Because no one listened to the environmentalists who said unchecked corporate pollution was the bigger issue.
โI want to kill someone today & it might be you"
"They wrenched my trousers & underwear down & I was raped by one of the soldiers"
"Other people had guns inserted inside them"
"My daughter was syringed with an unknown substance"
Juliet Lamont's Gaza Flotilla testimony:
Satellite imagery shows southern Gaza increasingly reshaped as military control expands entire neighborhoods, farmland, and even cemeteries reportedly erased.

These are the brand new disguised Automated License Plate Reader cameras in Arizona
The large yellow plastic barrels are camouflaged housings designed to look like construction equipment
They are being deployed in remote desert areas along highways
These new camouflaged cameras are a partnership between Flock and law enforcement and the plan is to use them extensively to track vehicle movement and broader surveillance
We are witnessing the surveillance state being established in Americaโฆ this only ends in mass surveillance
