Stop whining about microchips in the vaccines. They're so tiny, you won't even feel it.
When I was a kid, the vaccines had floppy discs in them - now that was fucking painful.

Good point: The word "crisis" implies the problem is acute, therefor temporary. But the cycle of poverty, ignorance, and crime is chronic, therefor long term, potentially permanent, and eventually fatal.

Trump's Health
This guy has been predicting Trump's imminent demise for a year - grains of salt are in order.
But the signs are there, and he's pretty good at picking them up.

Sometimes I feel down -
a little unsure of myself.
But then I remember I could've been born with an IQ low enough to think Trump is a great president, and I feel a lot better.

Investigators recovered two stolen trailers carrying $1.3 million in data center supplies, including copper wire and infrastructure equipment.

Americans don’t seem like they’d be particularly broken up if the data center craze gripping corporate America were stopped dead in its tracks. According to recent polling, data center hate is one of the few things capable of uniting people across the political spectrum. At this point, the only people who’d genuinely miss them—besides the tech CEOs insisting we need them for reasons they can’t explain—might be the thieves making a fortune stealing the mountains of copper and equipment headed to their construction sites.
According to Business Insider, investigators recently recovered two stolen trailers near Chicago containing roughly $1.3 million worth of data center supplies, including $300,000 in copper wire stolen in Alabama, and another trailer carrying $1 million in infrastructure equipment taken from Florida. It’s a booming industry, with the US Department of Homeland Security estimating that cargo theft costs businesses about $35 billion a year, and the AI boom is now fueling a whole new niche within that black market.
Thieves Stole $1.3 Million in Data Center Supplies as the AI Construction Boom Keeps Growing
Wherever data centers are being built, the thieves follow. We do live in a land of opportunity, after all, and what is a data center if not a giant opportunity to steal a lot of copper wiring to offset all the water the data center is going to be stealing from us?
The same race to build ever-larger data centers that has sparked public backlash over energy use, water consumption, and the menace they pose to nearby communities has also made an entirely new criminal economy. Every data center needs truckloads of valuable materials before the servers can be crammed in. Every new shipment is just another opportunity thieves can seize.
While the AI revolution threatens to kill countless jobs, leaving potentially millions of Americans in the lurch, maybe all those future jobless Americans can turn to the booming data center theft industry. Maybe AI is a job creator?

It's a little ironic, in that it's AI, but at least they tag it as such.
Remember two things:
- All of our rights were won by people who didn't ask permission
- They put Sarah Connor in a psycho prison for trying to stop AI data centers

It's just too damned weird that Americans will make complete fools of themselves as long as they feel like their gang approves and keeps telling them they're cool.
