Babbly babbly Bitcoin babble.

Crashing.

The absolute bullshit that is Bitcoin is represented in this "speculative report" written by ChatGPT that argues Bitcoin "will preserve our collapse" after the extinction of humanity.

What does that even mean?

Bitcoin is crashing. Cue the schadenfreude!

Bitcoin got the deregulation it wanted from Congress.
Bitcoin got a President who promotes cryptocurrency.
Bitcoin is still falling apart.
That's because Bitcoin was never anything other than a scam.

Why does Josh Riley spend so much time blaming other Democrats for America’s problems, when Republicans control the government?

Congressman Riley, stop attacking Mamdani. We elected you to stand up to Trump!
November 24, 2025 at 3:44 PM
Congressman Josh Riley of Ithaca is joining Republicans to attack Democrats in New York State with resolutions that don't help working people.

This is not what we elected Josh Riley to do!
It's time for Congressman Josh Riley to resign and let a real Democrat take his place.

G42, the AI company controlled by the authoritarian royal family of the UAE, is a fascist nightmare.

Terawulf plans to use its AI data center on Cayuga Lake to serve the needs of G42. #G42 #Terawulf #AI #Fascism

Josh Riley needs a primary challenger from a REAL Democrat.

The United States is suffering under Fascism. There is no great socialist threat.

Josh Riley repeatedly sides with the Republican Fascists.
November 21, 2025 at 6:08 PM
Congressman Riley, you just voted for REPUBLICAN legislation that condemns ALL forms of socialism and socialist policies.

Socialist policies in the USA include:
- Social Security
- Medicare
- SNAP food assistance
- Public schools

This is not what we elected you to do.
November 21, 2025 at 5:58 PM
Ithaca, your Congressman, Josh Riley, just voted for REPUBLICAN legislation that "denounces socialism in all its forms and opposes the implementation of socialist policies."

Public schools, Social Security, Medicare are all socialist policies.

As the GOP wrecks America, Josh Riley applauds them.

Tone Deaf Josh Riley:

In the middle of an economic crisis with inflation raising prices and AI destroying jobs...

...Congressman Josh Riley wants us to be concerned he didn’t get $10,000 in one night.

Josh Riley is supposed to serve us, not the other way around.

starves the poor
keeps medicine from the sick
refuses to forgive
rejects the outcasts
won’t welcome strangers

The Bitcoin mining AI data center business at Terawulf has had massive investment, but it just can't hold its business together.
Terawulf stock is down 25% this month.
Terawulf is not a good investment.

Everything wrong in the USA was condensed in this pop-up message from Microsoft Copilot in a Word document this morning.
"Create a vacation blog about hiking in Yellowstone National Park"?
I can't go to National Parks, because Republicans shut down the govt - with the help of big digital tech!

Fascist Republicans have killed democracy.
It's not a Halloween ghost story.
It's the horror we're all living through.

Re-elect Judy Drake and Joseph Wetmore to Lansing New York Town Board!

They're shoving generative AI into everything, desperate to find a situation in which it makes sense.
This morning, I got up early to write, and was working in MS Word, a program that's always been too complicated, and up popped a message: "Paste with CoPilot".
Paste with AI?
Why? Why?!?

Terawulf promises of local jobs for Lansing New York don't add up.
Terawulf promised 100 permanent jobs to Lansing for the Cayuga Lake data center, but in July 2024, Terawulf announced only "20 permanent employees, 6-8 fairly permanent employees" for its similar sized Lake Mariner AI operation.

"Data centers, which are kind of ground zero of all of the angst about increasing costs, they should be, without question, required to bring their own power," John Quigley, Kleinman Center for Energy Policy
Why does Josh Riley never confront the role of data centers, but blame foreigners instead?
October 6, 2025 at 3:36 AM
Why does Congressman Josh Riley of Ithaca keep blaming foreigners for high utility bills but never ever talk about the role of corporate data centers
like the one Terawulf is building on
Cayuga Lake?

Is he trying to distract us with
xenophobia?

Why did Congressman
Josh Riley of Ithaca help #cryptocurrency
crooks to bribe
DONALD TRUMP &
evade accountability
by voting to
WEAKEN regulations
put in place by other
Democrats?
September 29, 2025 at 10:48 PM
Cryptocurrency lobbyists are openly celebrating Congressman Josh Riley's submission to their lobbying demands.
Cryptocurrency = corruption = $1.2 billion in bribes to Donald Trump so far.
Cryptocurrency is the life blood of fascism.
WTF Josh Riley?!?
September 29, 2025 at 8:22 PM
Why is Congressman
Josh Riley
helping Terawulf
build a data center on
Cayuga Lake
by sponsoring the
Middle Mile for Rural America Act?
Rural America is not a Middle Mile.
Hands off Cayuga Lake!

Congressman Josh Riley has been working with the Searchlight Democrats, a group that seeks to kick progressives out of the Democratic Party.
So, why shouldn’t progressive Democrats kick Riley out of office and elect a REAL Democrat in 2026?

Charlie Kirk told his followers Joe Biden should be killed. Josh Riley voted for legislation celebrating Charlie Kirk's "civil discourse".

Josh Riley will never ever stand up to fascist bullies.

Josh Riley is a politician without a backbone.
September 21, 2025 at 3:42 PM
You won't see it online, but the current print edition of the Ithaca Times has a feature length article exploring how Josh Riley is losing the trust of progressive Democrats.
Josh Riley is out of touch with Democratic voters on the issue of human rights in Gaza.
