Let's end this argument. What is the best BBQ in Kansas City?
Kansas City Chiefs@Chiefs
The best day of the year if you ask us. Happy National BBQ Day!

I was at my bank yesterday morning and everyone was talking about data centers and wanted to know my stance. I explained, no tax incentives (except our legislature in 2025 gave data centers in Kansas a 20 year sales tax exemption, SB 98, which must be repealed) do not allow data centers on our power grid and no access to our public water supplies.
Then they told me about this story from FORTUNE—Nearly 50,000 Lake Tahoe residents have to find a new power source after their energy source looks to redirect lines to data centers: fortune.com/2026/05/12/lak…
However, it appears that the town of 49,000 will continue to have service until another service provider has service lines in place. But it does beg the question: How are we going to address this insatiable demand for electricity for these data centers?
Again, my stance—no tax incentives, do not allow data centers to hook up to our grid or our public water supply. Pay your own way and don't take our power and water.

@FC_Bridges @Farzin21 Whoah, Columbus Park! TIL, will totally check them out.

@Farzin21 Ate at Brobeck's on a trip to KC last December. And Harp's. And Joe's. And Jack Stack. And Meat Mitch. And another place I can't remember. Joe's is always my favorite but Harp's and Brobeck's were both really good, happy to see one of them getting some love.

@daily_amanda1 @Farzin21 💯 smokehouse beans although a few others are neck and neck with them.
English

@Farzin21 Jackstack wins all around best bbq, joes earns best sandwich, and smokehouse (which why isn’t it listed?!) earns best beans.
English

@Farzin21 I think there's different answers for different things.
Upscale Dinner - Jack stack
Lunch and a beer - Joe's
Weekend dinner & music BBs
Business lunch - Meat Mitch
Want to be yelled at and disappointed - Gates
Want to not be yelled at but still be disappointed - Q39
English

@Farzin21 Wolfpack BBQ deserves a shout on here! Very slept on.

You have every right to know what your government is doing, and they have no right to know what you are doing.
That is why they are called public servants and we are called private citizens.
Instead, the relationship has been inverted. The state hides behind secrecy, classified files, and redactions while demanding total visibility into your finances, communications, movement, and behavior.
A society where the rulers live in privacy while the population lives under surveillance is the very definition of tyranny.

This is nuts. Why I went from consistently having status on Southwest, to never flying them. I now fly exclusively and have status with United, and am not looking back.

Update: I got a middle seat. Also learned that—one hour after @SouthwestAir told me the only available seat was a $73 premium exit row—it offered my travel buddy a $34 option. Surveillance pricing on top of fraud. The scam has layers.

Wife wanted Lebanese for dinner. I was like let me place a DoorDash order but go in and pick it up so I don’t have to tip someone a billion dollars.
I get to the store, park the car, I get a text that the order is ready for pick up. I go inside and grab my paper bag which has my name and order printed on it. Take it back to the car. Decide to check the order because otherwise what’s the point of ME coming to get it.
Half the order is wrong and says “Jenny” on it. Go back inside. Hi this is not my order. They’re like oh crap Jenny took your order, fucking Jenny she always does this shit, just keep the food and we’ll make you a whole another order.
So here I am back home with an insane amount of food. Score!

Your air-gapped servers are covered by a faraday cage, you think you're safe from key exfiltration? You fool.
Low-frequency magnetic fields pass right through Faraday cages.
Researchers were able to extract data off an air-gapped shielded computer by spawning fake work loads spiking CPU power and generating magnetic signals.

@cabsav456 In MO, the people voted for an independent commission. It was later stripped away... and look where we're at now.
English

Mike is missing the point (per usual). He's arguing that a supermajority is a license to ignore the will of the people. That isn't how it works, and that is literally an argument for permanent one-party rule.
Utah voters passed Prop 4 in 2018 for an independent commission. Florida amended its constitution in 2010 for Fair Districts. Virginia amended our constitution in 2020 to create an independent commission, and we probably have one of the fairest maps in the country.
Why did these things happen? Because Americans DO NOT WANT politicians of any party redrawing maps to entrench themselves & dilute the opposition. To claim the "only" purpose is to "elect more Democrats" is cynical partisan messaging that ignores the clear mandate for institutional integrity.
The people in charge should NOT get to "pick" their voters; it's supposed to be the other way around.
Listen to the voters.
Mike Lee@BasedMikeLee
In a state like Utah, where there’s a Republican governor and Republican supermajorities in both legislative chambers, calls to put legislative redistricting in the hands of an “independent commission” rather than the legislature serve only one purpose: Electing More Democrats
