@elonmusk Speaking of wine, when are we going to have the option for red leather in @Tesla interiors?

Erin Brockovich has launched a website and has begun tracking all data centers in America and logging resident complaints In just 1 week it’s already logged 1,690 resident complaints For this who don’t remember Erin Brockovich was the paralegal responsible for winning out a case against PG&E, Hinckley in California, because their wastewater runoff was seeping into rural areas and creating a lot of health issues for, for the surrounding neighborhoods That case brought in a $333 million settlement that went to the families affected by the situation because a lot of them either had staggering medical bills due to their tap water was no longer safe So why is this important, well residents all over America are reporting their tap water and river water is being heavily polluted by data centers Her map of data centers is new, she just launched it The website features an interactive US map showing operational, under-construction, and proposed AI data centers, overlaid with community-reported complaints Residents can submit reports with details, photos, and locations. Within days of launch, it received a surge of submissions over 1,600 in the first week, and reports of 1,800+ from 47 states shortly after Common Resident Complaints Being Logged - Water usage - Raising utility bills for residents - Noise pollution: Constant 24/7 humming from fans, generators, and cooling systems disrupting sleep, daily life, and wildlife. - E-waste from frequent hardware upgrades, pollution including PFAS concerns

It ain't officially summer until the lobster rolls are served and my friends at Joe Fish in North Andover, MA offer a HUGE one called the Big Kahuna. It's usually $90, but it's half off after 8pm all summer long, dine in only! 📍1120 Osgood St in North Andover, MA

@realannapaulina @BuraianUFO We should repeal that law that allows the Us goverment to use propaganda on its citizens as well

Imagine how different social media would be if the US banned foreign influence campaign operations ($$$$) and/or required influencers to disclosure what country they are taking $ from.

If you went back in time and told someone from the 1960s how Americans would be living today they wouldn't believe it They'd ask if we'd lost a war, if we'd been conquered It would just be impossible to fathom living standards and purchasing power dropping so far

Hundreds of Taiwanese took to the streets of Taipei on Saturday demanding their government be allowed to fully arm itself. At the same time, China had over 100 warships and coast guard vessels positioned across the First Island Chain. The Taiwanese protesters knew exactly what they were marching toward. On May 23, citizens rallied in Taipei in direct support of President Lai Ching-te's $40 billion defense budget request, publicly rebuking the opposition KMT's decision to strip it down to $25 billion and eliminate all domestic drone programs, sea attack platforms, and the Chiang Kung missile system that anchors Taiwan's air defense architecture. Washington had already called those cuts "a concession to the Chinese Communist Party." The same day, Taiwan's National Security Council Secretary-General Joseph Wu posted an intelligence disclosure: "Our ISR/intel shows that the PRC has deployed over 100 vessels around the First Island Chain over the past few days, so soon after the Beijing summit. In this part of the world, China is the one and only PROBLEM wrecking the status quo and threatening regional peace and stability." The deployment spans the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea around Taiwan and Japan, and the South China Sea near the Philippines. Taiwan's Ministry of National Defense separately confirmed 8 PLA Navy vessels operating around Taiwan in a 24-hour window, with 16 aircraft sorties including 13 crossing the median line that serves as an informal buffer between the two sides. The surge followed Trump's May 14-15 summit with Xi Jinping in Beijing. China chose the days immediately after that summit to position over 100 vessels across the strategic chain of islands that separates the Pacific from the South China Sea and defines whether China can project naval power beyond its coast. Taiwanese citizens marched on Saturday because they can see what is across the strait. Their parliament cut the budget to defend against it. China deployed the fleet regardless. The people in Taipei understood what was at stake. The question is whether their legislature does. #Taiwan #CCP #China #PLA #FirstIslandChain #NationalSecurity #Geopolitics #IndoPacific #Defense #TaiwanStrong

Paperwork is better when you can just talk through it. With Images in ChatGPT and voice mode, you can upload a form, say what to fill in, and get back a completed version.

🇺🇸 The Pentagon released UAP footage showing a humanoid figure identical to what was seen over Sequoia National Park in 2015. Same shape and movement. 5 years apart. When it keeps appearing in declassified records, it’s no coincidence but a pattern.

Congrats @SpaceX team and @elonmusk on a hell of a V3 Starship launch. One step closer to the Moon…one step closer to Mars 🇺🇸

BREAKING: Today, we closed the chapter on vibe coding. I just witnessed my Mac erase a $31B company in 186 seconds. This is beyond insane.

Americans: grinding making $300k a year, can't afford to buy a home, eats uber eats every meal, on 4 meds Europeans: making $40k a year, owns his home, 2 hour lunches, glyphosate free food, walks everywhere, takes all summer off, dies happy at 91 something went seriously wrong

Elon Musk just measured your existence by how many times your atoms have been inside a dying star. Musk: “How many times have your atoms been at the center of a star? I think it’s like on average three or four times.” Every atom in your body has already survived the core of a star. Multiple times. Crushed under pressures that would flatten planets. Superheated to millions of degrees. Blown apart in explosions so violent they forged new elements. Then gravity pulled those scattered pieces back together. New stars formed. And the cycle repeated. For 13.8 billion years, your atoms have been fuel for the most violent process in the universe. And they are not done. Musk: “In terms of existence as measured by the number of times your atoms will be at the center of a star, we seem to be roughly halfway.” Halfway. Your atoms have been through the furnace three or four times. They will go through three or four more. But right now, in this impossibly thin sliver between cycles, those atoms are doing something they have never done before. They are conscious. For billions of years before you, they burned through stellar cores with no awareness. No memory. No sense of what they were or where they had been. After you, they will return to that state. Unconscious matter drifting through space until the next star claims them. This is the only moment in their entire journey where they can look back at the stars that made them and understand. Musk: “If you want to look at the big picture… that’s the really big picture.” The big picture is not that we are small. Everyone already knows that. The big picture is that we are temporary witnesses to a process that does not need witnesses. Stars do not need observers to burn. Atoms do not need anyone to understand where they have been. The universe ran for billions of years with no one in it. It will run for billions more after the last conscious thing disappears. But right now, matter is examining itself. That has never happened before in 13.8 billion years. You are not a person who happens to contain ancient atoms. You are ancient atoms that briefly figured out how to think. The universe did not design consciousness. It designed stars. Consciousness was the accident. And the accident is half over.

@elonmusk @NICKIMINAJ $100 says Elon clapped…

Welcome to Starbase, @NICKIMINAJ!

The U.S. should NOT use propaganda on our citizens, but that prohibition was lifted in 2013! Thank you @RepDavidRouzer for cosponsoring HR 5704 to repeal the 2013 Smith-Mundt Modernization Act.

CBS News said there was no evidence of fraud. The NYT said the Somali community was being targeted CNN said there was "little evidence." Tim Walz said it was “white supremacy” to expose fraud Today: $90M busted and 15 charged. IT WAS ALL FRAUD AND THEY KNEW.

@McAlbuht Mid May and I’ve yet to see a single sun dress… sad!

Top 5 things New England does better than anyone else on earth: 1. Chinese food. 2. Ice cream. 3. White women in sundresses. 4. Suburbs. 5. Dumb politicians. Facts.

One of my very close (good friends) killed himself when he turned 40. He had a beautiful wife and a baby girl. He was an orthopedic surgeon. He was gentle and always kind. He shot himself in his home with a shotgun. His suicide note said he had no friends. I think about him a lot. His wife. His daughter. I think about the kind of friend I was. I think about being his age and what life is like. Check on someone today. You never know what they are dealing with. RIP Eric. You are missed my friend. I’m sorry.
