Look folks the genie is out of the bottle. The genie went from $20/mo to $200/mo. The genie is spending $8 for every dollar it makes. The genie is reactivating every coal power plant it can. The genie needs 60% of your town's water. The genie is hiding $1.65 trillion in debt. But it's out of the bottle! The genie is out of the bottle folks.

@jplebreton@mastodon.social @petealexharris@mastodon.scot The genie also wants 150% of Scotland's electricity supply to run its data centres, and roughly 100% of the UK's entire potable water supply for cooling. But it's out of the bottle!

@jplebreton@mastodon.social Aladdin is firmly in the bottle, and has been drinking his way towards the bottom of it. He has already finished several of them, and has more under the sofa where they're easy to reach.

@jplebreton@mastodon.social You are wrong about their debt load. It is hundreds of billions higher. They are just hiding some of it with creative financing.
