@WomenBeingAwful It may seem trivial to some but none of those women listen to the music or are part of the subculture with which that attire used to associated.

@GmorganJr @LWCnewswire There are a number of towns across the country where the residents have voted no on data centers but then the council goes ahead and votes to approve anyway completely ignoring their constituents, not sure if that was the case here but seems like someone snapped.
English

This is crazy!
I’ve seen plenty of people here calling for violence over data centers.
Why?
CBS Evening News with Tony Dokoupil@CBSEveningNews
Days after voting in favor of a new data center in Indianapolis, Councilman Ron Gibson says his home was struck by 13 gunshots while he and his family were asleep. He says a handwritten note reading “No data centers” was found under the doormat.

@GmorganJr @NPC_Identifier Mandated doesn't mean anything especially when there is no enforcement mechanism
English

@NPC_Identifier That was true initially but President Trump has mandated that the AI companies pay for their own power at a higher rate thus keeping the local rate the same or they have to provide their own power.
Either way, this doesn’t justify shooting up a guys house.

And when more than 80% of the population is vaccinated,
Including 90%+ of the older population, then 6/10 COVID death rate corresponds to a major reduction in risk of Covid deaths since, if VE were 0%, then ~9/10 COVID deaths would be expected to occur in the vaccinated subset.
That is, % of covid deaths in vaccinated is not a measure of vaccine effectiveness, and in fact your reasoning is based on two epidemiological fallacies:
1. Base rate fallacy
2. Simpson’s paradox/age confounding
Bottom line is that after rollout in 2021 the vaccine effectiveness vs illness, hospitalization and death were all exceptionally high — they decreased in magnitude in 2022 after Omicron emerged and ~6m after shots with antibody waning, but was still substantial — so the key is that the risk was MUCH LOWER than it would have been had there been no vaccines
So the facts are that vaccinated would have had much higher risk of Covid deaths since had they gotten no vaccine, and the unvaccinated would have had much lower risk had they been vaccinated.
That is, many of the unvaccinated planes bullet holes that did not make it back from battle would have made it back had they been vaccinated, and those planes aren’t around to say that they suffered no consequences from refusing the vaccine in 2021.

The federal government’s workforce is shrinking at a historic pace:
The federal government shed -18,000 jobs in March, down to 2.66 million, the lowest since 1966.
This marks the 14th consecutive monthly decline.
Since the beginning of 2025, the federal government has cut -352,000 jobs, reducing its workforce by nearly -12%.
As a % of total employment, federal jobs are down to 1.67%, the lowest on record.
By comparison, in the 1960s, this percentage averaged 4.2%.
The federal workforce has never been this small.

@jsm2334 @LaciMarieKnight Lol, I could literally say the exact same thing for the vaccinated claiming the vaccine was effective because some people survived even though by April 2022, about 4 months after the release of the of the first covid vaccine, 6 out of 10 covid deaths were vaccinated individuals🤡

@KTLA Counterpoint, we give police AT4s so they can end the pursuits quicker and save the taxpayers money from trial and jail expenses
English

A series of police pursuits have led to at least eight deaths around the country in less than a week amid ongoing calls from some law enforcement experts to curb risky high speed car chases. ktla.com/news/police-ch…
