The city sounds pretty salty about the whole thing, surprised they couldn’t come to a solution.

I am once again asking why these data centers are all fucking SECRETS

"A controversial plan to build a 2.2-million-square-foot data center on farmland may still happen. A rural community... is looking to settle a lawsuit recently filed by a development firm working for an unidentified tech giant."

That’s why they fined him $100k, you can’t go against the league’s on-field calls so violently.

Thank God, happy to learn it’s not so bad. I guess we can say that Dolly is not sick, but she’s also not well.

An update from Freida Parton so it sounds like Dolly isn't well, but she's not *that* unwell. Still at 79 any illness isn't good so I'm still hoping she's fine because she's clearly got so much to give still and makes the world a better place just by being in it.

A screenshot of a post from Freida Parton on thr Other Place. It reads:
I want to clear something up. I didn't mean to scare anyone or make it sound so serious when asking for prayers for Dolly. She's been a little under the weather, and I simply asked for prayers because I believe so strongly in the power of prayer. It was nothing more than a little sister asking for prayers for her big sister. Thank you all for lifting her up. Your love truly makes a difference
