Welcome back to another week’s To Watch and Watch For. The Hopkins grounds team has done quite the job at raking away the fallen leaves, and just as the trees are slowly turning bare, we must bear with the midterms we find ourselves taking. Now, in the midst of exams, here's to hoping that you can weather the storm and squeeze in a free hour here and there to check out the wide array of media releasing in the upcoming days.

In the race to build the biggest and baddest AI data centers, everyday Americans are being left behind. Predominantly Black and low-income communities have taken the biggest hit, especially in cities like Memphis, where the xAI Memphis Supercluster went online just last year. Now Maryland residents are facing a similar battle against plans to construct a data center at the former site of the Landover Mall in Prince George's County.

This summer, I had the wonderful opportunity to study abroad in Shanghai. And while my mind was preoccupied with the exciting prospect of being in a new city, learning and growing from this month of exploration, there was still a nagging hesitation in my heart.

On Sept. 8, the U.S. Supreme Court — by a 6-to-3 majority, divided along ideological lines — temporarily halted the enforcement of an appeals court ruling against the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) ability to use frivolous discriminatory factors such as skin tone and speaking Spanish as a reason for stopping individuals and checking their immigration status. This decision comes as a significant departure from the so-called ‘race blindness’ the Supreme Court has tried to pursue in college admissions and allowed ICE to continue their crackdown in Los Angeles. This temporary halt also represents a major step back for the Fourth Amendment right not to be subject to stops or detainments without reasonable cause, especially for reasons solely regarding race.

When Big Thief first started making waves in the indie music scene with its 2016 debut album Masterpiece, I was still listening to some truly terrible music. AJR, Imagine Dragons and Lukas Graham (no, I don’t want to talk about it) dominated my Spotify account, but that didn’t stop me from immediately falling in love with “Paul” the first time my friend played it for me on her guitar one quarantine night. What I found when I got home was an incredibly impressive folk-rock discography, both from the band and from the members’ solo careers.

On our way to Fells Point, my friend, who would be trying out oysters for the first time soon, was grumbling. “Whenever you ask someone what oysters taste like, they describe it as if they don’t want you to try it,” he said. “It’s really good, but they have the texture of gelatin... almost slimy... and it’s very salty, as if you’re drinking sea water... But it’s so good, you should try it!” he added, imitating those types of people.

A six-year-old girl slouches on her wooden chair. Standing barely 4 feet tall, that damn chair must’ve been bigger than herself. Her first-grade workbook is opened in front of her, with a pencil lying beside it. She sees her classmates quietly reading and writing while listening to the random classical music the teacher left playing from her Pandora playlist.

Unpopular opinion: I don’t like warm drinks — whether that’s tea, coffee or the like. They never feel soothing, and if I have a sore throat, I would prefer to down a glass of ice water, letting the coldness spread throughout me and numb the pain. When I came to Hopkins, that didn’t change about me. However, I value the comfort that arises from sipping a cup of tea; it provides a chance to relax, pause and reflect — time that I would rarely carve out for myself. For the longest time, I felt guilty for slowing down; I believed that I should constantly strive to make the best use of my time and to do something.
