I miss Kate so badly that I physically hurt.
It's been a week since we were together. She's still in Australia sorting her visa.
I feel more stressed. My emotions are stunted. My thoughts are cloudy and my mood has dipped.
It just hurts everywhere.
Today I put $85 worth of fuel in the van, and it barely moved over the half tank mark. Then I spent $450 on two carts worth of groceries. Now, tonight, I hear elected Republicans telling me the price of gas and groceries is dropping. Are folks really dumb enough to believe this?
🚨These AI Data Centers Will Cause Energy & Water Prices to SKYROCKET Across the USA🚨
Texas is leading the way by destroying its coastline for Israeli desalination plants.
IDE’s $1 Billion facility will dump toxic hyper-salty brine + PFAS forever chemicals into the Gulf, while feeding power-hungry server farms that:
➡️Drink up to 5 million gallons of water per day
➡️Use as much electricity as a city of 300,000–500,000 people
The result? Polluted oceans, contaminated water, and massively higher energy + water bills for every American.
This is corporate greed on steroids.
Texas (and America) is being sacrificed for Big Tech.
Kids aren’t protesting this war because the Israel Lobby already killed free speech. Over the last two years college students protesting anything tangentially related to Israel faced blacklists from jobs, student group bans, suspensions from school, arrests and deportations.
