I just heard @npr.org say "no one knows how to fairly divvy up the bill" regarding the increase in utility costs due to data centers. Easy. Data centers pay. The infrastructure, increase, their own bills. If I walk into a store and fuck up everything in there, I have to pay for it. Why don't they?

for too long, Republicans have been able to do everything—up to trying to overthrow the government!—and still get invited to the parties they want to get invited to. nothing changes for them and all I'm saying is that it should. you shouldn't keep getting invited to the party.

Tens of millions of American motorists believe there's nothing wrong with texting at a stoplight. Or driving 73 in a 60mph zone. Or changing lanes without signaling. Or rolling right on red without coming to a full stop. But somebody has to do something about cyclists who don't follow the rules.

Schmitt: We had information Jack Smith was at a basketball game. There was only one NBA game that night which is why I asked him if he was in Atlanta.
That's what these hearings are for. You ask questions, you get answers. Smith has perjured himself before, but... maybe he's a Caitlin Clark fan. We'll accept that.x.com/Acyn/status/21...
