Reseating has always been the issue for me. I can never get the full bead seated without an air compressor, and even then it can be hard to get that final pop

I haven't looked into this, but why aren't states creating a very expensive tier for energy consumption?
And if the problem is that it would impact other businesses, why not narrowly tailor such a tier that AI companies would be the ones impacted?
If it's going to take infrastructure to support AI, then the AI companies should fund it via taxes.
Oh, right, that's socialism according to the GOP
They're typically small businesses, what reason do they have to lie about business being down?
I'm sure they have the data, and I'm sure if a local government or journalist wanted to, they could look at tax records to see revenue impact
I don't think anyone would argue that such enhancements are a bad thing in the long run if 1) If the enhancements ultimately bring in more shoppers/customers, 2) there is still parking available in the area, and 3) the businesses can survive 6-12 months of reduced revenues
My response was really directed at comments implying that the businesses are essentially whining. There's a very real impact during construction, and certain businesses could be hurt by reduced parking, particularly in the states where the car is king
In defense of business owners, when their customers are trained from birth to drive everywhere, their customers expect parking. When there is no parking, they lose business
Every major US city receives immense backlash from local businesses when roads/parking are unavailable due to added bike lanes, traffic calming projects that reduce parking, or much-needed major construction projects such as water main or sewer work. This is happening right now in downtown Burlington, VT, for example

There's no easy answer in most cases
It's one thing to say "I'm really attracted to her, but I'm too much of an introvert to initiate a conversation"
But this is sounding like stalker-type fixation level shit
That's as kind as I can put it
Beside the point. You want tariffs? Follow the law, it's that simple
To govern within the boundaries of the law, one often needs to build coalitions. Those are guardrails established by democracy
And tariffs are perfectly legal when they go through the proper channels. So, the administration just needs to go through the proper channels and work with the legislative branch to pass such tariffs. And they shouldn't be predicated on a bullshit national emergency
Jesus fucking christ.
Impeachment requires a simple majority in the House, which is highly, highly unlikely to happen
Conviction and removal requires 2/3 majority in the Senate, which is abso-fucking-lutely not going to happen given that the Repubs have a simple majority and are are lapdogs of Trump
Anyone crying about impeachment are either so completely uninformed that they should be lobotomized for the sake of the Republic, or else they are so delusional that they should be involuntarily committed for observation and treatment
Grow the fuck up and start actually doing something useful. Protest, curb stomp nazis, assassinate fascists
Do anything useful, but stop clutching pearls on social media
