AOC just held up jars of brown drinking water in Congress and said this came from a Georgia community living next to a massive Meta data center project. And the disturbing part is that this is no longer an isolated story. In rural Morgan County, Georgia, residents say their well water turned muddy after years of blasting, excavation, and construction tied to Meta’s 2.5 million sq ft campus. Families say appliances started failing. Some now rely on bottled water. Locals say the problem has worsened over time. Meta denies responsibility, citing independent groundwater studies. But the EPA has now agreed to investigate after mounting pressure. At the same time, another Georgia data centre issue surfaced. In Fayette County, residents reported weak water pressure during drought conditions. Investigations later found a nearby QTS facility had consumed nearly 30 MILLION gallons through mismanaged utility connections. Bloomberg found that around two-thirds of new AI data centres since 2022 are being built in already water-stressed regions. In Michigan, towns began freezing approvals after a $16B Stargate AI project pushed through despite local opposition. In South Africa, communities are now challenging Equinix data centres over water use, electricity demand, and environmental risks in a drought-prone region. The AI boom is often framed as digital. But the reality is physical: Water Electricity Land Local infrastructure And governments are fast-tracking this expansion with subsidies and tax breaks, often without clear rules on resource use or community protection. AI companies talk about building superintelligence. But small towns are asking a simpler question: “Will our water still be safe to drink?”

so real

@leshaami This is an incredibly powerful perspective. It’s possible to love your life while still recognizing that the child who birthed you deserved a childhood of her own. Validating her humanity doesn't diminish yours. It shows how much you value the person she was.

Hi, so the woman who carried and gave birth to me was 13 years old, celebrated her 14th birthday only days before I was born. I should’ve been aborted. It’s really terrible that she was made to carry and birth a baby while she was a child herself. Am I happy to be alive? Yes. Absolutely. Very happy to be here. Would I be mad had I been aborted? No, I wouldn’t exist, I wouldn’t feel anything. I shouldn’t exist. She was a child. The lives of girls/women are more valuable than fetuses.

You can tell they wish this was true. Idky they're so sadistic about artists just because they have no talent

No amount of words can convey how far behind this country will be in every avenue for a number of years because of this administration and everyone associated with them with stuff like this happening.

My piece from 2025 on the plight of South Korean school kitchen workers and their fight for workplace safety, following the deaths of many workers from lung cancer: koreatimes.co.kr/opinion/202509…

Inconceivably evil.

The people returning to their homes don't know the Yellow Line exists. But the IDF shoots them if they cross it, then labels them "terrorists". This is an outrage.

For those who missed it: this was the moment The Strokes ensured they’ll never set foot in Coachella again! I'm so proud of them #Strokeschella
