I think my issue with the AI water discourse is how dehumanized it all is--AI pushers do not want to talk about inequity, access, or the people impacted by the growing demands for data centers. Its NOT just an abstract discussion over numbers, and should not be framed like that.
new from me: are data centers going to wipe out water supplies? how much water does ChatGPT really use? and what's going on with that big correction in Empire of AI?

i went long on the conversation around AI and water, and how it's actually about what we want resources to be used for:
You’re Thinking About AI and Water All Wrong
Fears about AI data centers’ water use have exploded. Experts say the reality is far more complicated than people think.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

These 8 Senators sold us out to Trump:
Hassan
King
Cortez-Masto
Shaheen
Kaine
Fetterman
Durbin
Rosen

Understand This Fact: Chuck Schumer is behind this. None of these 8 are up for reelection in 2026. Schumer asked them vote yes—they agreed. He's such a coward that he folded and won't even own it.

Trump: I'm dismantling the Constitution, building a paramilitary fascist army loyal only to me, demolishing the White House, and blowing up the US economy for my billionaire cronies

Schumer: Okay, but you have to extend subsidies for corporate health care

Trump: No

Schumer: Okay

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Zohran Mamdani won NYC Mayor while unapologetically:
-Calling Israel's siege on Palestinians a genocide
-Upholding ICC's warrant to arrest Netanyahu
-Upholding BDS as a legitimate form of free speech
-Demanding Palestinian self-determination
-Securing a plurality of Jewish voters

This is the future

It’s funny to think that the masked ICE Agents terrorizing communities are the same folks that spent two years saying they couldn’t breathe with a mask on.

- Global methane abatement yields large net global economic benefits.
- The benefit-cost ratio of methane action is at least 3—rising to more than 6 when health cobenefits are included.
