Reminder: Trump was president during the election he says was rigged, and when Dems were in charge he won — which means either they really suck at rigging elections or he is full of shit. (Hint: it’s the latter)
Republicans have prevented state funding for it thus letting it be run into the ground with no expansion. It is being left to rot and is directly tied to the lack of state support, only transit agency in the country ran like this and we wonder why it has issues. Blame them.
🦔The Nashville Zoo is trying to block a 69,000 square foot data center proposed about 50 yards from its animals. The zoo says noise could disrupt breeding of clouded leopards, a vulnerable species. An online petition has over 180,000 signatures.
Nashville has no zoning rules or building regulations for data centers. DC BLOX, the developer, applied for site permits before it even closed on the property. A council member filed a zoning appeal and the council votes Tuesday on a data center moratorium.
My Take
As a hedgehog I'm obligated to side with the animals on this one. DC BLOX can't even say what the data center would be used for or who the customers are. 69,000 square feet, 50 yards from endangered animals, and the developer has no disclosed client. That's how little the community factored into the decision.
These companies have billions of dollars. They could build anywhere. Instead they show up in places with no data center regulations because nobody can stop them. Utah, California, now Nashville. You don't file for permits before you own the property if you plan to ask the neighborhood what they think. The zoo had 1.4 million visitors last year and 180,000 people signed the petition in days. The clouded leopards are going to have to trust the process.

That giant 20,000 acre building over there takes all your fresh water, pollutes the air, raises local temperatures, makes annoying noises all day long, increases your utility bills and provides a whole 14 jobs. That building’s only job is spying on you.
Massive droughts have hit 63% of the U.S. after data centers used over 1 trillion liters of water in North America last year.
Water levels in major waterways are getting dangerously low.
The president of the united states is a pedophile and active part of a human and child trafficking and sexual exploitation ring...and the media says not a damb word to draw the connection between that indisputable fact, and the fact ICE is a deadly human trafficking operation.
The magnitude of what just happened may take some time to sink in.
This is the first time Iran has struck Israel after Israel struck another country's territory (that is, not Iran).
This means that the battle lines have been moved.
Iran's deterrence had already been restored in the sense that Israel knew that any strike on it would be responded to.
But now, Iran has proven that it will also respond to Israeli strikes on Lebanon.
This is the first time in decades that a regional power has the means, capacity, and willingness to put hard power against Israeli military maneuvers or aggression against a third party.

Insane to think that all through the 90s we were told we absolutely had to let the Klan march in American cities to protect free speech and now they're withholding diplomas, firing people, imposing travel bans, qmd running weekslong smear campaigns for saying the word genocide.
Hey media
Not a Platner fan, but why is he a nonstop story and not Ken Paxton's TWENTY indictments by a GOP led-Texas legislature, securities fraud charges and his wife's filing for divorce on "biblical grounds?"
Big capital will always side with misery, not progress. They will demand absolute perfection from the left, and always make excuses and justify the excesses of the right. Look at their pro-war op-eds, their genocide denial, covering for the far-right, all while smearing the left.
Albania has officially drawn the
line, Sazan 'lsland is being cleared. In an stunning turn of events, Albanian authorities have
launched an active enforcement operation to kick
out foreign developers and private security
personnel occupying Sazan Island. The decisive
action marks a total collapse of the controversial €1.4 billion luxury real estate deal that aimed to turn the protected national marine reserve and
former military base into an exclusive private playground for global elites,
The eviction comes after four consecutive weeks of historic
hundred-thousand-strong protests that completely
shut down the capital city of Tirana, refusing to allow their native coastlines and ecologically sensitive wetlands to be privatized by foreign
investors, the Albanian public unified under a
single, unyielding demand: "Albania is not for sale, the courts faced with a historic political crisis, mounting
domestic fury, and a widening anti-corruption
investigation by special prosecutors (SPAK), the
government was forced to pivot, by deploying state forces to reclaim Sazan lsland, Albania has
sent a clear message to international billionaires
and foreign developers trying to bypass environmental protection laws, This historic victory for citizen-led activism proves that the collective voice of a nation can successfully overpower backroom corporate deals and protect sovereign land.
The people spoke, and the
government had to listen.
One thing I always think about with the rigged crowd: If you actually believe in good faith that the 2020 U.S. Election was rigged, then logically you should be calling out the results of Senate elections in Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Louisana and on and on, no?
But stunningly I never see this.
