We used to be regular visitors to Habitat, along with the other local thrift stores. It had been a while and it changed so much, and not for the better. They used to have a ton of building materials, furniture, light fixtures, plumbing parts, and parts and pieces galore. Now it is a smattering of building supplies and some “boutique” stuff. And EVERYTHING is over priced. People thrift for many reasons, but mostly to find bargains. So sad to see a once good thrift store go this direction.

In a recent Reporter Herald article: "Larimer County is asking for community feedback on regulations for data centers in the unincorporated parts of the county, as it weighs potential rules.

The county issued a moratorium on data center construction permits in January, as there are not currently sufficient regulations or procedures to properly weigh permit issuance, county officials said at the time.

To aid the creation of those policies, the county has created a short online survey where community members can provide feedback on common concerns regarding data centers, namely water consumption, power usage, noise, heat effects and other nuisances, and zoning. The moratorium will expire Aug. 25, and community members have until June 12 to complete the survey."

Encouraging all residents to submit the survey denouncing data centers in our county! Link to survey: https://engage.larimer.gov/datacenter#tab-77302

Some facts about data centers:

• A single modern AI data center can use as much power as 100,000 homes; many of the larger ones now being built are expected to consume up to 20 times that amount.
• Data centers require huge amounts of water to keep servers cool enough to function. Mid-sized facilities can use up to 300,000 gallons of water a day, while large facilities can consume as much as 5 million gallons daily.
• Some data centers house gas power on-site for day-to-day operations, creating continuous air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Diesel-fueled backup generators also release harmful air pollutants, including fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), linked to respiratory disease, heart disease, asthma and other serious health risks.
• Data center construction, rooftop cooling systems and backup generators can be disruptively noisy. Smaller diesel generators reportedly reach 85 decibels, levels that can harm hearing. Larger industrial units can approach 100 decibels — equivalent to a motorcycle or jackhammer. This noise can last for hours or days at a time.
• Massive data centers are reshaping how land is used in many communities. In 2024, the average data center site covered about 224 acres or 0.35 square miles — roughly the size of 450 football fields. This represents a 144% increase since 2022.
• A national review of roughly 700 data centers across the country found that nearly half are in census tracts with above-median environmental burdens, such as air pollution, park access and water pollution, as measured by the Center for Disease Control’s Environmental Justice Index. Many were located in areas with social vulnerability indicators, such as poverty and lower education levels.
• Wildlife: The constant, high-decibel hum (sometimes exceeding 90 decibels) from servers, generators, and cooling fans, along with 24/7 exterior lighting, can disrupt the natural circadian rhythms and communication of birds, bats, butterflies, and other wildlife.

More than $64 billion in projects were delayed or canceled between May 2024 and March 2025 due to organized opposition. Let's get to work to save and conserve our natural resources and our own health!

I want to share an experience in case it helps someone else stay safe.

A while back I had a really disturbing Uber ride with a driver named Patrick who drives a blue Tesla. During that ride he waited until my friend got out of the car and I was alone before starting a very inappropriate sexual conversation. It did not feel like a joke at all. It was extremely uncomfortable and honestly scary being stuck in the car with him. I reported him through Uber at the time.

Fast forward to recently my friends were visiting and we booked a Lyft home. The driver shows up and it is the same guy Patrick same blue Tesla.

During this ride he started having a sexual and suggestive conversation out loud with his car’s AI voice system which he calls Eve. He was speaking to it as if they had a sexual relationship. It was bizarre and disturbing and it felt intentional like he was trying to push boundaries while we were stuck in the car close to our destination.

We reported him again through Lyft but I am posting here because I am worried that may not be enough. This behavior is not normal and it feels unsafe especially for women riding alone.

If you are in the area and get matched with a driver named Patrick in a blue Tesla I strongly recommend canceling the ride.

Please trust your gut in situations like this. If something feels off it probably is.

Stay safe out there.

Hello!

You all may remember that about 5 months ago I made a post gauging interest in starting a book club. I'm happy to report that we've now had 2 meetings and would like to send the call back out to the sub where it all began!

Our goal is to read (mostly) banned & challenged books. We have read "Norwegian Wood" by Haruki Murakami and "Beloved" by Toni Morrison.

Next month, we will be discussing Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi.

We will be meeting at Intersect Brewing on May 17 at 4:30.

All are welcome. I hope to see you there!
