I cannot ever forget how the marching bands refused to be silent, as requested, going past the house where the mother of those three murdered boys took refuge in the weeks after her unthinkable loss. A small detail that exposes everything this march is for.

“I would not presume to tell the Irish players to boycott or not to boycott. But there is a touch of infantilising going on with the talk of them being trapped or caught in a situation not of their making. As Bazunu has shown, they are grown-ups with hearts, minds and consciences.” Well said.

But they're using renewables! a) they're not, they're all quietly pivoting to dedicated natural gas plants, built by their oil buddies, b) renewables should be used to power useful shit c) this makes it so that renewables don't displace fossil fuels, they just add to supply for increasing demand

Just to say what complete scumbags the FAI and Micheál Martin are for putting Irish players in this position.
Tweet from Daniel Lambert, September 26th: Hearing from several sources around Ireland hotel that agents are telling players you must play our you'll never play for a US owned team in the UK.

How grim and predictable from faceless agents who profit in the background.

While all attention is on AI and its impact on our brains, energy grids and economy, and whether it will literally kill all of us, is any leader taking climate change seriously any more? AMOC collapse would be *absolutely devastating* and is only one of profound impacts climate change brings.

I still think there is not a good awareness out there of just how much the AI industry plans to run off fossil fuels. This is a *conservative* estimate that excludes many planned projects. These are weak plans and they can be stopped. au.finance.yahoo.com/news/us-data...
Investing.com -- Data centers in the United States are projected to consume more natural gas than most countries within the next ten years, according to a new outlook from BloombergNEF.

Natural gas consumption for electricity generation at data centers is forecast to increase by 15 billion cubic feet per day in the decade ending in 2035, even when accounting for planned projects that may never be completed. This volume exceeds the current gas consumption of all nations except China, Russia, Iran and the United States, based on data from the US Energy Information Administration. The projection is more than double BloombergNEF's December forecast of 6.9 billion cubic feet per day.
