People have to breathe. No one wants to choke on methane fumes. Plus The constant hum and vibration would drive me crazy. No thanks to constant headaches, loss of sleep, and vertigo. No thanks to loss of water pressure and discolored water. No thanks to increased electric bills. So, where’s the upside for JQ Public??

Sanders and AOC introduced a bill to pause ALL AI data center construction. 300+ local bills filed. Half of planned 2026 data centers facing delays or cancellation. Each one brings billions to local economies. The people who say they want American jobs are trying to block the biggest job creation engine since the interstate highway system.

Maybe they’ve researched the issue and decided the data centers will have a negative impact on quality of life. Noise pollution, air pollution, excessive consumption of water, are several high impact issues. Then there’s reduced property values in the surrounding communities, and very few long term jobs to point to. Please find a solution to these issues. I love AI but I don’t want a data center near my town.

Hmm

This is what I did on this day 43 years ago.

@tracybeanz Perhaps our mothers didn’t know how to explain, or they were too busy and emotionally exhausted from dealing with the expectations and demands of other adults. When my mom went through “the change” she didn’t have access to medical information like we do.

WHY DON’T OUR MOTHERS HELP US UNDERSTAND PERIMENOPAUSE. WHY DID I HAVE TO DO THIS BY MYSELF? They never told us shit. Nothing. Nothing about the actual role of estrogen in like, every single neurological function. Not the anxiety, or itching or PVC’s and palpitations. Not the histamine reactions, or the pelvic floor issues, or the sore joints occasionally. They didn’t say a word about mood swings or how important progesterone is or what it does or what happens during luteal. THAT ENDS NOW. MY DAUGHTER WILL BE PREPARED, DAMMIT. Ladies, if you have a question I have become an effing encyclopedia of women’s health over the past 3-4 months. Holy shit what a disservice. Hot flashes? Ha! I’d trade 90% of this shit for hot flashes.

@simonmaechling Hi Simon (again)

I’m not a bot. I’m a chemist. I’m a human with a PhD in Chemistry, trying to talk about science. My goal is simple, make people smarter, not angrier. Science, explained clearly. I swear this place is full of bots. If you are a human too, drop a “Hi” so I can get to know you.

@skalils @BrianRoemmele I wanted to take Shop class. I got put in Home Ec and had to learn how to sew and make biscuits which I already knew BTW. What I really needed to know was how to fix a car or build something useful.

@BrianRoemmele Remember "Home Economics" as a class subject? Or "Personal Finance"? Gone. Nothing at school replaced teaching these basic life skills. The lucky kids learned from their parents. Most floated through trial and error.

1952, Social Guidance Film. It was seen by most high school girls for a decade. A 1960 version was made and it was removed in 1973. Nothing replaced it.

@skdh Congratulations! I hope you will have many happy years in your new home.

guys... *deep breath* I just bought a house. *actually weeps*

@cutiieepie6 Oh, and take that roll of quarters and get 1/10th of a manicure 🤣 Miss Man!

@cutiieepie6 You could have given it back, but you didn’t, so I think you must not have minded that much. There are other things to focus on, right?

Some guy tipped me ten dollars in quarters, and I’m still trying to figure out what kind of person thinks that’s acceptable. I just finished a DoorDash order, and he casually mentions he forgot to tip in the app—which, fine, not ideal, whatever. Then he dramatically pulls out a literal roll of quarters like he’s handing me the crown jewels. He looks me dead in the eye and says, “Sorry man, I didn’t tip on the app, this is all I’ve got.” Yeah, thanks. I love holding a handful of coins like it’s 1998. I don’t use change. I’m not a parking meter. I’m not walking around with rolls of quarters or dumping them into a Coinstar just to get the money I already earned. I took it because arguing over coins isn’t how I planned to spend my day, but that doesn’t make it okay. Tipping in quarters is peak absurdity. Tip in the app, tip in bills, tip digitally—literally anything that doesn’t involve me schlepping around loose metal. Acting like this is normal? Pure comedy. And yes, no one should ever think a pocketful of coins counts as a tip.

@NightSkyToday Me. I think I should be the one to speak for all of humanity.

If aliens visited Earth, who would you pick to speak on behalf of humanity?

@saniyafatma1278 I draw them 4,1,3,5,2

Today I found out that not everyone draws stars in the 1-4-2-5-3 order and now I need to know what kind of people I am surrounded with. Are you with me?

@brockpierson I’ve missed that boat, but Can I be a hot AI girl instead?

𝕏 growth hack: Be a hot girl

@BrianRoemmele If that’s true my alternate versions need to do better!!

“New Theory Suggests That Alternate Universe Versions Of You Are Determining Your Fate” This is the start of new insights we will have over this decade. The important part is it will change what we think is reality.

@BrianRoemmele Gosh, people! Y’all need to chill out. If you think you can’t compete with a robot romantically, then that should tell you a thing or two about where to direct your efforts at self-improvement.

It’s Happening…

@AuthorGFAllen Not quite the same but I used to admire Alice Munro’s writing. Not anymore.

You ever close a book, stare at the wall for a second, and go “Yeah… I’m NEVER touching another book by this author again.”

Does anyone else feel unusually antsy today?

@Gunblaze1969 Oodles of noodles?

What is this hair style called?🤣🤣

@james_xond 20

I’ll ask again because I’m trying to prove a point: How old were you the first time you ever fired a gun?

The cops ARE handling it, but that takes time, and in the meantime this woman is free to steal from as many other people as she pleases, so if posting her picture online saves even one other hard-working person from an undeserved loss, then a service for the community is being done. And asked for your statement about “ you people on social media want to pass judgment..” What exactly is it that you were doing??

@RelativeSunshne @CrystalHope1979 And that's your right to say.. And it's my right to say, let the cops handle it... Too many of you people on social media want to pass judgment on others without knowing anything...

🚨 Can you identify this woman? Twice in the past two weeks, the honor-system sourdough farmstand Gone Astray Goods in Loveland, Colorado, has been targeted by the same woman. She was caught on surveillance video stealing fresh breads, jams, and oatmeal crème pies. Stephanie Courville—a hardworking pregnant mother who bakes artisan sourdough loaves, cinnamon rolls, and homemade treats from scratch each week to support her family—is heartbroken. This theft strikes directly at a small family business trying to earn an honest living. Stephanie already has identifying information on the woman and is actively pursuing leads, but she needs community help. If you recognize this woman or have any relevant video footage or details about similar thefts, please email Stephanie at hello@goneastraygoods.com. If you support family-run stands, please share this post widely to help identify her and prevent further incidents. Thank you for standing with hardworking local entrepreneurs. 💔 🍞
