Do rich ppl get notices like this posted on their homes? No they don't. They go play golf and use chatgpt contributing to water scarcity.
Got a notice about our tap water being undrinkable today. Tell the community something we don't already know. 🙄

They cut cancer research, are closing rural hospitals, and added $4T to the debt, so your tax dollars could be spent at his golf courses. Eat the fucking rich. Might be time for 1790s France.

Hugs for everyone who hates this holiday.
Hugs for everyone who can’t afford a “Freedom From Want” Norman Rockwell-style feast.
I also understand why people love this holiday & put in lots of skilled effort to make others happy.

The thunderbird is just as much of a symbol of resistance against chatgpt as it is against pipelines.
And honestly ppl should be on the front lives fighting data centers just as they are on the Frontline to resist pipelines.

In Morrow County, healthy adults were coming down with unexplained medical conditions, including diseases that usually afflicted the elderly.
In a survey of 30 homes, at least 25 miscarriages and a half dozen people living with one kidney were reported.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.
