I hope the planet doesn't soon know what is happening on Garvaghy Road. Because that will mean things remained relatively calm.

The Tate brothers. The Cornell 7. Hairgel Hegseth's testosterone poisoning. Jeffrey Epstein raping minors. Donald Trump being convicted of sex crimes. They are all part of a culture that hates women and sees them as inferior. Except for sex, especially when it's not consensual.

Force Majeure is generally used as a kind of “act of god” measure for energy companies when wars or weather makes it impossible to deliver service. In this case Oracle is using it as a means of saying it shouldn’t pay in the event the data center isn’t ready. It is completely unprecedented.
Oracle Corp. is moving to shield itself from racking up expenses on a massive data center being built in New Mexico, adding a fresh wrinkle to a project beset by opposition and regulatory setbacks.
The technology giant sent the project's developer, a unit of Blue Owl Capital Inc., a notice citing force majeure, according to people familiar with the situation. Rather than trying to walk away as the site's main tenant, Oracle is attempting to put off payments should the data center dubbed Project Jupiter get derailed and fail to come online in 2028 as planned, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private matters.Even if the force majeure notice is intended as a precautionary step to win some wiggle room, it risks alarming lenders backing the project.
The debt tied to the development is already trading at stressed levels, below 90 cents on the dollar, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.
A group of about 20 banks provided an $18 billion loan to help fund the construction of the data center campus, one of several mega-debt deals that have helped bankroll the AI infrastructure boom.
The notice also stands to raise questions yet again about the resilience of data center leases.
Contracts often include a clause allowing customers to back out if service doesn't begin as scheduled. Earlier this year, Alphabet Inc's Google agreed to pay Elon Musk's SpaceX for computing power through mid-2029, for example, but reserved the right to terminate if it didn't gain access by a certain date.
