I look forward to the day I never hear about this guy again.

What's shameful is Spotify is still allowing some of Andrew Tate's content. If you have a Spotify account please consider contacting Spotify and send them a message saying you want Andrew Tate completely removed, want Spotify to stop funding Joe Rogan and demand a feature to block podcasts the same way you can block artists for songs. Also maybe consider ending your Spotify subscription. When you cancel your subscription you will be prompted to explain why you're canceling. It's crucial to fill you the reason. Say you're canceling because you don't like Andrew Tate and Joe Rogan.

If for some reason you or anyone you know is still using Twitter now is the time to take advantage of the outage and urge people to leave Twitter permanently. Tell your friends about alternatives to Twitter such as Bluesky and Mastodon.

Good! Bring it down to 100% and also bring down Twitter usage to similar levels! Build fiber to rural areas so they won't need Starlink or if you currently use Starlink see if fixed wireless is possible, maybe with a parabolic antenna on your roof or on an antenna tower you could get a signal. Keep boycotting Elon Musk until he's bankrupt.

We must increase our pressure against Elon Musk. Until he's bankrupt or behind bars he's still a huge threat to our country. Boycott all his companies. Sell your Tesla stock (it's high right now I can't predict the future but maybe it's peaked right now), stop using Twitter if you use it. Contact pension funds and demand they divest from Tesla.

For Starlink If you think it's the only choice for you maybe if you're just on the edge of cell phone reception you can use a parabolic antenna to get a reliable signal for 5g internet. This will likely be lower cost than Starlink. OneWeb has a competing service but they don't sell directly, I'm not sure how you can switch to OneWeb. Project Kuiper just launched their first satellites about a month ago. AST SpaceMobile might be an option too. If those options aren't available to you I predict there will be more alternatives for Starlink within the coming years.

The irony is when we get over this we'll likely end up replacing our American-born doctors with immigrants to replace all the people lost.

I sometimes wonder what if everyone who spends money on licensing fees instead takes the same amount of money and puts it into FOSS. Imagine what we could achieve? Likely the money would be used more efficiently because they could donate it to non-profit companies which don't need to pay tax.

Just make voting mandatory and give people time off to vote. Read about Australia's voting system. It's really awesome and I wish we could have something like that here.

Boycotting Twitter and all of Musk's companies is now more urgent than ever. Grok is going to be even more rigged to spew out hateful nonsense.

Remember to fully fill out your ballot with five names too! The only reason Adams won last time was because some people didn't fully fill out their ballots.

Keep boycotting all of Musk's companies until he's bankrupt and behind bars. Boycott Tesla and boycott Twitter. Remember to tell your friends that Tesla cars are unsafe because of their electric locks that can trap people in the cars in an accident and have build quality issues.

The Grayzone has suspicious ties to Russia.

The Grayzone publishes questionable material, stating that a Chemical Attack did not occur in Douma, Syria OPCW investigator testifies at UN that no chemical attack took place in Douma, Syria. They have also promoted conspiracy theories, such as claiming that Pete Buttigieg is a CIA agent. There is no evidence to support this claim. Finally, according to Radio Free Asia, The Grayzone content is frequently shared by the Chinese Communist Party media outlets “CCP propaganda is also increasingly laundered through Western influencers and denialist fringe media outlets like The Grayzone,” the report said, adding that, between December 2019 and February 2021, The Grayzone was cited at least 313 times in Chinese state media.”

Finally, The Grayzone promotes conspiracy theories involving George Soros funding regime changes, and the editor Max Blumenthal claims that Bill Gates ran a Covid simulation before it occurred. This is false. In general, The Grayzone promotes a socialist left perspective that promotes conspiracy theories and pro-Russian/Chinese propaganda.

Falsely claiming that there were no chemical attacks in Syria is a hallmark of Russian propaganda.

Even if this article is correct I would avoid giving them your clicks because of their weird ties to Russia.

If you want another source Snopes reported on this as well: https://www.snopes.com/...

Would Harris be turning tariffs on and off randomly like a light-switch?

Would Harris be ordering ICE to deport innocent people?

Would Harris sign the so-called "big beautiful bill" tax cut to the wealthy?

Would Harris appoint horribly unqualified TV hosts to run our government?

Would Harris cut aid off to Ukraine and ambush Zelenskyy and other world leaders in the white house?

Would Harris be trying to end temporary protected status to people who may get killed if they go back to their home country?

Would Harris have her own meme coin that she uses to accept bribes?

But Google’s guidance was also telling us that recovery was possible if we just “removed” our “unhelpful” on-page content:

This is very chilling because it means websites will delete content. If the internet archive didn't grab it in time it means knowledge is gone forever. An algorithm is not going to always be accurate in determining what is helpful.

If Republicans want to play that game Democrats should hold hearings on Trump's mental fitness. He's the one who's actually in office and the one who clearly has cognitive decline.

Data center owners should work as aggressively as possible to build solar and wind capabilities. It would be best for all parties involved. They'd get cheaper energy and it would benefit everyone by not polluting as much.

Even if they cannot power all of their energy needs with renewables they could build some every year.

These companies are so rich they can easily afford it.

Reminds me about what they used to say about Al Gore on Fox "News". They said he takes private jets. It's a bad faith argument because those people then go on to deny climate change. Also he's a former vice president, I'm sure security reasons are part of that decision. Also if those private jets allow him to be more productive in fighting climate change the net benefit of him using it may exceed the additional carbon generated by the jets.

This is stupid. This will not stop spies and terrorists, they will just create fake accounts. This will only hurt legitimate immigrants.
