It's wild that we are having an environmental panic about data centers — a carbon-free industrial facility that during ordinary operation consumes no natural resources besides electricity and water and emits no waste products besides heat.

NFLPA executive director JC Tretter said NFL players strongly want “high quality” grass fields.

Dear @sapinker, I am a huge admirer of your cognitive/linguistic work and your influential efforts in popularizing the evolutionary psychological lens. But I'm afraid that you may have missed the key tenets of suicidal empathy. It has nothing to do with "right-wing contempt for empathy." Empathy is an evolutionarily selected trait for a social species to exhibit. But as is the case for countless psychiatric disorders, an adaptive trait can become maladaptive if it misfires. Suicidal empathy is the maladaptive misfiring of empathy in three key ways: 1) it is hyperactive; 2) it is activated in wrong situations; 3) it is directed toward the wrong targets. What I just wrote holds true irrespective of whether you support Trump or not. I hope this clarifies it for you.

Illegal aliens should never be prioritized over Americans.

And sanctuary jurisdictions do just that.

For #ThrowbackThursday, we are spotlighting our West End Substation, which has been powering downtown Cincinnati for more than 150 years. You've probably seen it while driving on the Brent Spence Bridge. These photos of the substation are from the early 1900s.

We've been covering this project for years. Now, an official groundbreaking. From today's @Enquirer: https://t.co/DAkzb2H46k

We should not wait for Congress to protect children and to ensure Big Tech companies are accountable for harm they cause our people.

Florida should lead, not sit on the sidelines.

@KnifeyLionRadio Yes the defender got the ball; he also made contact with the player on the thigh/upper leg before he made contact with the ball.

For more than 150 years, @DukeEnergy’s West End Substation has been powering downtown Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky, ensuring the lights stay on for our cities’ largest buildings and attractions.

We need a government small enough to fit within the Constitution, and no other.

Unfortunately, our government is no longer small enough to fit within the Constitution.

Our Constitution has failed to restore government to is proper size and scope.

🤔 What then is the remedy?

The moment Michigan became national champions for the first time in 37 years 🙌

[The Associated Press @AP]

Michigan has won its second national title in men's basketball. The high-scoring Wolverines had to get down and dirty Monday, making only two 3-pointers all night but still muscling their way to a 69-63 victory over UConn. https://t.co/QDWMwcFmlK

[Andy @andyroche16]

Arizona is better than Michigan at every aspect of the game. Arizona is FAR more battle tested, and has never showed glaring weaknesses against bad teams like Michigan has

Arizona WILL win by 10+. If they lose, I will fly to Ann Arbor and personally apologize to every fan I see

Respect brother. Thank you. Your generosity will house adults with disabilities for generations. I’ll see you out there, twice a year. Hopefully Thursday Night in Cincy this time…
