Washingtonians! We've got inside intel that hyperscalers have been having "urgent" meetings with Governor Ferguson. THIS IS NOT GOOD. He stood up to Trump as AG; make sure he knows we expect him to stand up for our communities now, and not roll over for Big Tech. Statewide moratorium now!
This horror is less than a mile from where I grew up. Don’t let this happen to your community.
It has been really, really, eye-opening to learn from the folks opposing Google's data centres in vizag (Visakhapatnam). You can feel how it plugs into the wider political context in India. These activists are brave beyond belief
Uh oh, did someone’s website and personal account experience a big drop in activity after Ukraine hit a Russian data center?
Uhhhhh. Thank you @mayor.seattle.gov and @council.seattle.gov for doing what you can to protect us from this absolute dystopian BS!
Ukraine is helping defend Europe as much as Europe is helping defend Ukraine.
treat your body like a data center. consume as much water, art and literature as possible. upset local municipalities with your existence.
A confused cooler carrying a lukewarm burrito t-boning a two-ton autonomous sedan is the exact pinnacle of civilization Silicon Valley promised us.
Tell me again why private industries should be allowed to externalize the costs of climate pollution on the rest of us?
My question is, if activists blockaded the road in, would a jury convict? I...don't think so.
I think it's foolish to assume people who support fossil fuels and oppose renewables are stupid. Many competent people invest in, work for, run, or own FF companies. Those people stand to lose money or status if the permitting bill passes and helps renewables outpace fossil fuels.
Can anyone point me to a member of the highlighted Group 2 (wants more fossil fuel production + does not want more renewable energy production) who has come out *against* the federal permitting bill? Members of Group 2 aren't exactly rare; Trump, who hates wind turbines, is one example.
We figure it’s worth unpacking a bit, even if we never really picked our jaws up off the floor after Garman tried to argue we need data centers to do critical research into how to use less energy. (DC’s are predicted to use up to 17% of US electricity by 2030!)

We just dropped the latest @peoplevsthemachines.com and this one was so much fun. I talked to @raquelwillis.com about technofascism vs gender liberation, and @wewill2026.bsky.social about how the fight against big tech is uniting Michiganders. Check it out: youtu.be/hU-dDA06Azk
Absolutely this thread. And also: computation is not intelligence, no matter how resourced or networked!
(it's us. We're gonna stop them.)
Sort of insane fact about how broken US urban planning is—America now spends more building *just the lights for roads and highways* than on all subways & ground mass transit combined Spending on roadway *pavement* is 18x transit spending
Which tech platforms are going to participate in making this happen?
This is terrifying. Are we really going to allow it? Asking for a whole lot of (human, animal, plant) friends.
We have published now two full reports both debunking this claim and shining a new light on the climate impacts of companies like NVIDIA and others who insist on this without evidence.
Public control won't fix this problem - not at all.
🚨🚨🚨Federal immigration agents are still using our state DOL data to find and detain people. Take 2 minutes right now and call Governor Ferguson to demand that he immediately block this data sharing. Then send to 5 friends and ask them to call too. 👉360-902-4111👈
