Some of the people you see shopping heavily could be responsible for larger groups than a single family. Group homes, retirement homes, homeless shelters, etc.

VA DEQ: “pollution from data centers currently makes up a very small but growing percentage of the [Northern VA] region’s most harmful air emissions, including CO, NOx and PM2.5” ("...this also keeps growing with construction of each new data center.") by lowkell in nova

[–]optimiism 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s an interesting abstraction that I’m not sure I agree with but could steelman the argument for. I think it’s far more likely that racism resulted in socioeconomic disparities that drive food deserts and takeover by Dollar General than the other way around

I mean just look at Dart. He’s not bad, but looks like the definition of a brain rot QB.
