I still think about how crazy it is that cats, previously a wild animal, chose to just move in with us and get us to do their bidding. Have they domesticated us to their own advantage the way we have other animals?
@PSwoo3465 Good going! I did enjoy a longer break over christmas last year, but also scared to take off to long a stretch as I'll never want to go back to work.
@TheGreenParty@rachelmillward Why don't you think women deserve single sex provision? Have you ever had to share a confined space with a man claiming to be a woman? Somewhere you'd feel vulnerable, like a changing room or hospital ward? Prison? Perhaps listen to women who have.
Residents and conservationists in Fife are sounding the alarm over plans for a colossal AI data centre monstrosity near Auchtertool. It has been calculated that the AI data centre would use the energy of more than 50% of Scotland's households and guzzle vast quantities of local water supply. No one voted for this.
It is time for the Scottish people to stand up and demand control over their land and resources, pushing back against mega corporation developments that exploit Scottish countryside assets without public consent.
Multinational tech corporations and facilitating governments should never ride roughshod over Scotland's land and natural resources - the people of Scotland themselves should decide this.
When a 600MW hyperscale data centre, consuming more electricity than half of Scotland's homes can be proposed without meaningful public consultation or environmental impact assessment, that is not governance in keeping with Scottish constitutional tradition. It is the opposite.
The people of Fife did not consent to this, and their voices must be heard. Thatโs direct democracy in action. Finally, if the SNP government really do believe in independent sovereignty for the people of Scotland, let them prove it here, on Scottish soil, for Scottish communities.
Good morning, Sian here. I'm tired. As a survivor of prostitution, I'm tired of being told I should've found the experience empowering. I'm tired of being told consent can be bought with a ยฃ10 note, and that men can do what they like to me if they bribe me with cash.
