Apparently they were just kidding about the “no tax on your Social Security income” thing….

Justin Rose should do the admirable thing and send me a portion of his winners check. No one puts poison on a golfer like me betting on them. Sorry Rory.

@jstewartIndy There’s been a data center at the old Eastgate Mall site for many years, and I’d guess most of its neighbors have no idea what it is. I don’t understand the fear-mongering.

The next candidate for Indianapolis mayor has an opportunity to run on an anti-data center platform, given the mayor appoints a majority of the Metropolitan Development Commission. The commission has repeatedly given data centers a blank check regardless of how many hundreds of community members show up to oppose them.

@Awnye5 The sales/use tax on gasoline fluctuates monthly, just as a 7% sales tax on any commodity would. In the summer of 2022 it was just over 29 cents per gallon compared with the 17.2 cents this month. It does not perpetually increase, but the decreases never seem to be reported.

HEADS UP INDIANA! Your total tax burden is now approximately 71.6 to 72 cents per gallon! Indiana's gas tax is increasing on April 1, 26. The state's 7% sales tax on gasoline will rise to 17.2 cents per gallon, an increase of 2.1 cents from March's rate. dailyjournal.net/2026/03/21/ind…

@RobMKendall So do you think it would be better if the cost of local services such as police and fire protection just be distributed equally among all propetyy owners, or are you just making a straw man argument?

Kamala Harris proposed taxes on unrealized capital gains and Republicans called her every name under the sun. We do it in Indiana and Republicans call it standard operating procedure.

@RobMKendall It’s funny when the market doubles the value of your home the property taxes go up. Wild

@Indy_reporter_ @IPSSchools Before Republicans gained a majority in the House in 2010, IPS went from its heyday at 120,000 students to around 40,000, yet received increased state funding every year.

ok. This is crazy and @IPSSchools REALLY needs to be investigated. Total Enrollment 2017-29,183 students 2026-19774 students This is where it gets REAL interesting and you can see the deportations are having a real time effect. 2024-6,461 ELL students 2025-6,546 ELL students 2026-6,198 ELL students Bottom line: Enrollment has been declining but the school budget has been going up. Where was the money going?

@Indy_reporter_ Perhaps that was their impression at the time. Remember they were both injured and transported by ambulance, and I doubt that Beau’s last priority at the time was to get a copy of the crash report. I investigated auto crashes for 26 years. Misperceptions like this are not unusual

This is interesting. Why has no one asked Beau Baird why he repeatedly described the January crash involving Jim Baird and Danise Baird as a “hit and run”? Beau Baird called it a hit and run the day of the crash and again 11 days later. But according to reporting from @TomDaviesIND, “The police crash report, however, indicates that all drivers remained at the scene.” We obtained a copy of the report ourselves. On page 4, top right corner, it clearly states: “did not leave scene.” Very weird. SAUCE: indianacapitalchronicle.com/2026/03/04/no-… facebook.com/share/p/18JDTz… facebook.com/share/p/1ELsie…

Indiana legislators want to make sure you’re NEVER able to OWN a home. They just banned Carmel & Fishers’ rental caps on single-family homes in a major giveaway to large, corporate landlords at YOUR expense Read my latest for @indystar in the comments. The cap only allowed 10% of those homes in a subdivision to be rented out. Now, the wealthy can compete with middle class families to buy as many as they want to rent for a premium.

I tip for table service - in cash, left on the table. Restaurant servers get paid a couple bucks an hour in most places. They supplement that with tips. Counter workers get paid at least minimum wage. Also, one of the big arguments for higher tips these days is that they split with the back end. Well, I'm not paying for the back end with my tips; that should be in the price of my meal. Tips are a reward for making my experience pleasant, and they should only go to the server.

Genuine question on a restaurant situation: You walk up to a counter to order. You find your own table and seat yourself. If you order coffee, they hand you a cup and you go fill it up yourself. If you order food, they hand you a buzzer and when it goes off, you go pick it up yourself. The iPad has a “20%, 25%, 30%, Other” tip option, with 20% already preselected. What’s your move?

@AndrewIrelandIN Actually I’m OK with either repealing DST or making it permanent, but just not adjusting clocks twice per year.

🚨🚨 How is candidate for State Rep Sid Mahant still allowed on the Republican ticket? This "Republican" donated to Democrats. Wouldn't this be considered a "Republican in Bad Standing?"
