I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there.

Trump has posted on Truth Social about 65 times in the last 90 minutes, including a video he posted at 8:44 PM PT describing election fraud lies that shows racist AI images of Michelle and Barack Obama as monkeys at the end. I’ve confirmed this is real and watched it myself.

I've just uploaded a version of my Academic Writing Tracker spreadsheet, which I've been using in various forms for the last decade. It has trackers for a single session, a whole book, a month's writing, and reading something that is long. Feel free to copy if you think it might help you. #AcWri

Media saying avoiding Covid is “health anxiety” is like saying…

Seatbelt = Crash Anxiety
Life Jacket = Drowning Anxiety
Helmet = Brain Injury Anxiety
