Local issues signpost wider salience/ relevance; this from an Axios article re a private (read ‘secret’) memo by the Senate GOP campaign to major AI companies, warning: “toxic views of U.S. data centers are killing the party's chances of holding a vital seat in Ohio.”
“State of play: Republicans say in the memo, headlined "Ohio Data Center Risk," that it's up to AI companies to improve perceptions of data centers by explaining "who benefits, who pays, and why a community should want one."“"Until that happens, the issue will continue to dominate this race…”
“The bottom line: The memo argues that a [candidate] Husted loss would cause long-lasting damage to AI companies in their push to build data centers nationwide to power future generations of AI.
“"If voters' perceptions of data centers are not fixed quickly, the campaign against them will expand far beyond Ohio," the party warns.”

Springfield, Ohio awaits masked thugs out to brutalize neighbors and stomp on the Bill of Rights. Beautiful, poignant article from the Ohio Capital Journal.

Dave Joyce (OH-14) could have the deciding vote for whether to release the Gaetz report. If he's your rep, I'd encourage you to contact his office. https://joyce.house.gov/contact

CW: Ohio gender affirming care ban; last-minute call-to-action
good morning. I haven't really posted about this here, but this is a last-minute plea to PLEASE submit a comment opposing the de-facto gender affirming care ban in Ohio BEFORE 5:00 PM TODAY (Fri, Jan 19)
https://mha.ohio.gov/about-us/rules-and-regulations/rules/draft-rules/gender-transition-care
it doesn't have to be a big long email or anything - a sentence or two saying you oppose these rule changes will do!

Well, fuck you Ohio and fuck you in particular Secretary of State Frank LaRose.

Fucking *right* Ohio. I was just informing a wildly uninformed boomer about Florida's laws, and then I heard about DeWine vetoing a similar bill here.
I don't loves me no DeWine, but credit where it is due.
