@anselm @petergyang Including removing AI-derived carbon from the atmosphere before the climate becomes unlivable?

@CustomHester Two dozen in situ natural gas-fired generators won't strain the power grid but when built out to scale will dramatically shorten the remaining livability period of the climate. Don't be blithe about externalized costs.

@Poynter Let's be honest. How many significant WH correspondents are there now? A dozen? Hardly justifies the expense of mounting such a Marie Antoinette-style ballroom spectacular every year. Sends out conflicting vibes RE: press complicity as well.

@glenn_tunes So sorry. Perhaps spend some of that gigantic, petro-derived sovereign wealth fund on advancing decarbonization?

@andrewselsky Except for the inherent instability when stopped or at slow speed. The front payload shifting suddenly off center would tumble the whole deal. Nice gams tho.

@_fat_ugly_rat_ Tell me what you know about the Washington coastline! 60+% of it is privately owned and beachcombers are trespassers.

@OregonBitxh @OregonianPol All the more reason to use "alleged." Guilt is yet to be determined.

@bernardtjoy Well, we'll settle for an annoying tale of landed gentry trying with little success to have a relationship despite crushing expectations.

@atrupar Emmer holds his town hall meeting on Capitol Hill. The Congressman from Lake Woebegone is a real profile in courage!

@aseitzwald Meaning Mainers would rather preserve their attachment to a moderate-sounding enabler than preserve the democracy. Happy 250th, chumps.

@SirEvanAmato Milan is the world champion selfie city. Young women rolling around large aluminum steamer trunks full of multiple outfits expressly to pose in front of the Duomo.

@atrupar The congressman from Lake Wowbegone seems a bit wobegone. The dark stains on the bag indicate rancidness.

@Acyn @JasonKander Not sure I'd vote for someone without a mouth. Kind of 19th century tonsory.

@TheTNHoller Siting large, polluting, extractive industrial operations near black communities. Same game, different names. You only realize the inescapable low frequency noise pollution once the data center goes live.

@johnarnold @nicholas_bagley Depleted aquifers? Low-stack natural gas combustion pollution? High levels of low frequency noise pollution? Decommisioning & mitigation costs that become a public burden once ownership dissolves in bankruptcy?
