Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

pretty funny in retrospect that QAnon hinged on the idea that powerful elites at the highest levels of government were smart enough to talk in code when sending emails to each other about their despicable crimes

It’s a well-known thing that “Alberta sovereignty” is a fake issue leveraged by American corporate interests and various other political vandals, but it’ll be nice to see a number put to the issue when one of said vandals is the Premiere.
