This morning before heading to the store, I cleaned my car windows. After I got home, it poured down rain for a couple hours. I just wiped the windows again, to prevent water spots, and the clean cloth came back covered in this black gunk. Black gunk that had to come from the rain. #Memphis #xAI #turbine #pollution?

Seems like if the National Guard are going to be allowed to shoot people they should be required to wear body cams. #Memphis #TyrinJohnson www.sfgate.com/news/article...

They alleged they have been followed by law enforcement officers and that unmarked vehicles and individuals in tactical vests have showed up outside their homes after they observed the task force. #uspol #maga #occupation #nationalGuard #memphis #tn #fascism #murder #gestapo

News out of Memphis today indicates that Trump's unwanted surge of National Guard troops into Black neighborhoods has claimed another life. Over night American Soldiers, not civilian police, shot and killed a man who was running away. Memphis' crime rate was falling and no one wanted the National Guard into except Trump's MAGA clowns. The soldiers who killed Tyrin Johnson have not been named. No word on bodycam or other oversight tools in use. #Memphis #NationalGuard #TyrinJohnson

I am not against #ai In fact I am fascinated by it and the benefits it can yield. However, I think that the location and impact of the #datacenters that run AI need to be carefully considered. One only has to look at #musk 's Colossus datacenter in #Memphis and the pollution from the #lng power turbines. So, I think that datacenters in #vancouver should be carefully vetted. Protest is good. #bcpoli #telushttps://www.nationalobserver.com/2026/06/29/news/national-day-of-protest-against-ai-data-centres

Rep. @brotherjones.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy to @rbreich.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy : “They’re spitting on the graves of our martyrs, bringing us backwards in history… An almost entirely white Republican caucus in Tennessee — that’s the system they’re bringing us back to.” #Memphis #JimCrow
