South Memphis is choking while Elon Musk’s AI company cuts corners. xAI’s massive supercomputer burns so much energy that local utilities can’t keep up so they installed 35 methane gas turbines right in the heart of a neighborhood already suffering from toxic air.

I’ve taken the Senate floor and will speak for as long as I’m physically able to lift the voices of Americans who are being harmed and not being heard in this moment of crisis. Watch here:

The staff of the Department of Education are being told to clear out their offices by 6:00 PM. The dumbest people alive are cheering for this. 🤦‍♀️

ANYWAY, did you know there's an extension you can put on Chrome that will connect with your local library system and when you go look at a book, say on AMZ, it will tell you if that book exists in the library system and if it's available? It's literally called Library Extension.

I made this the other night while procrastinating, mainly because I thought all the posts about the blackout were boring. It feels like there is momentum bringing people together!

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

The trial of an oil company SLAPP suit to literally destroy Greenpeace begins today in N. Dakota. Make no mistake this is the iron fist of petrofascism trying to crush our movements to defend water, climate & Native rights. We must all fight back. Action Link in post below. #ClimateSky
