Gavin Newsom just got a major endorsement to be the Democratic candidate for President! He got put on Trump’s hit list! That in itself shows that Newsom has good ethics and cares for the people!

What a Data Center Actually Does to the Place You Live - They tell you it's just a building full of computers. Here's what they don't tell you.

AT THE FENCE LINE:
The air around a data center is not the same air you grew up breathing. These facilities require diesel backup generators by the dozens, sometimes hundreds, and those generators release fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx) that are directly linked to asthma, heart disease, and respiratory illness. We're talking 200 to 600 times more nitrogen oxides than a natural gas plant produces. (World Resources Institute) At the xAI facility in Memphis, a Time Magazine investigation found that nitrogen dioxide levels in surrounding areas measurably increased after the facility opened.

The noise never stops. Internal noise levels can reach up to 96 decibels, well above the 85 dB threshold considered harmful to human hearing. (PubMed Central) Neighbors near a Virginia facility reported 90 decibels at their homes. One resident said he can no longer open his windows. Another put mattresses against the glass to block it out.

The light runs all night, disrupting the natural circadian rhythms of the body, including melatonin production and sleep cycles. (EHP) Sleep disruption, chronic stress, hearing loss. These aren't hypotheticals. They are documented outcomes in communities that said yes before they understood what they were agreeing to.

WITHIN A MILE:
The land changes fast. The average data center site in 2024 covered about 224 acres, roughly 450 football fields, which is a 144% increase in footprint since 2022. (World Resources Institute) Farmland gone. Forests cleared. Viewsheds destroyed.

The water starts disappearing. A mid-sized data center uses roughly 300,000 gallons of water per day, the same as 1,000 homes. (Nixon Peabody) Between 80 and 90 percent of that comes from the same surface water and groundwater sources your tap water comes from. (Fwpcoa) Most of it evaporates in cooling towers and never returns.

Wildlife changes too. Researchers describe data centers as potential "sensory danger zones," places where light and noise levels exceed the thresholds at which species experience measurable fitness consequences. (National Wildlife Federation) Animal communication breaks down. Migration patterns shift. Nesting fails.

MILES AWAY AND DOWNSTREAM:
The water table doesn't stop at the property line. Heavy groundwater use can deplete aquifers in ways that threaten ecosystems and long-term water availability for entire surrounding regions, not just immediate neighbors. (Waterplan)

The power plants feeding these facilities pollute far beyond the data center itself. Data centers increasingly rely on large-scale plants that are now being co-located nearby to avoid grid upgrade delays. (arXiv) Whatever that plant burns, your airshed absorbs.

A September 2025 study found that air pollutants from data center operations increase rates of respiratory and cardiovascular disease, and elevate cancer risk in nearby communities. (EHP)

THIS IS PENNSYLVANIA RIGHT NOW.
From Penn Forest Township to Kline Township to Salem Township to Archbald Borough, proposals are moving. Permits are being filed. Ordinances are being written or ignored.

Folks, the research is clear and the damage is real. The question is whether your municipality is asking the hard questions before the ground gets broken, or after.
You deserve to know what's being built next to your water, air and land.

Admin V here. In light of yesterday’s religious violence. Let’s talk about the concept of America being a Christian nation and how to tell your Christian friends that they are wrong when they say this nonsense. If you want to look at a good source, there is a book called Faiths of the Founding Fathers by David L. Holmes. It is probably 20 years old now, but the information remains excellent.

Some points that need to be made are as follows.

1. There have always been Jewish and Islamic people in America. I’m not joking. The synagogue in Charleston, SC has been here since 1749. It isn’t even the oldest synagogue in America. There was a reasonably large contingent of Islamic people in Philadelphia due to the transatlantic slave trade since the 1760s. Please note, both of these dates are pre-revolutionary. And none of this includes the religions being practiced by the indigenous people, the non-Christian Europeans, and the other enslaved people on the shores of America.

2. Christianity in 2026 is not the same as Christianity in 1612 or 1776. Even, maybe even especially, Protestant Christianity has evolved and changed over the years. In early America, most Christians were some form of Anglican despite what the Puritans would say. America was founded on capitalism and not religious freedom. And most of the English Christians were Anglican. They took communion, stated the creeds, read the scriptures, and went about their lives.

3. We’ve all read about the first and second great awakenings that led to new denominations in the Americas. It also inherently changed the practice of Christianity and made Americans more pious. The first great awakening happened in the mid 18th century. The second happened in the early 19th century. Both of these resulted in the beginning of the charismatic and extemporaneous preaching styles that we see today with the second great awakening resulting in things like the burned over district of upstate New York that brought us the LDS church, the Seventh Day Adventists, and the Jehovah’s Witnesses.

4. Religion was entertainment in early America. People would go to different sermons by different people who came into their area and talk about them in the same way people talk about sports teams. They would print sermons in newspapers and read them out loud. I don’t know that we can make a lot of assumptions about how seriously early Americans took things in light of how they treated it as a form of entertainment.

5. Very few of the founding fathers who wrote the founding documents were devout Christians. Most were deists. Some were lapsed Anglicans. Some were Unitarians. All were strong believers in reason and logic over delusion. God to them wasn’t the same as God is today to Christians. He was an impersonal creator who stayed out of the business of the people. Which is absolutely not the God that I grew up with.

6. America is an enlightenment creation. I don’t know where some of these people were in US History class, but I remember learning this in the early 1990s. I learned about Thomas Paine, Descartes, and John Locke in middle school. We had to read excerpts from their work. So when people say America is a Christian nation, I wonder if they paid attention in history class.

I’m really, really sick of having to explain this to people who seem to have missed every history lesson on the foundation of America and have chosen instead to believe the religious myth that was created in a post Civil War world. The Civil War traumatized America and people were reaching for explanations for what had happened to the nation that resulted in millions of dead Americans. They turned to religion and spiritualism to explain things and created myths of a past that never existed. And they keep murdering people over the myth and delusion of the nation being Christian when it never has been.

We got our boosters Wednesday…

The report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post.
