the trump administration, obviously concerned with racial equality, thinks its illegal discrimination to spend federal dollars protecting a predominantly black community from raw sewage
Calling it "illegal DEI," Trump issues EO to shut down a program redirecting human waste away from a rural Alabama area regularly flooded with sewage during climate-change-amplified storms.
The area's population is over 72% Black.

I think one of the things that bothers me about my work is the people asking me to justify my positions and cynicism against the big AI companies. For some reason the billion dollar companies are treated as if they're always acting in good faith and with good intentions.
