Great another wonderful Oklahoma story.
Hey, don't be hatin' on Oklahoma! It's actually pretty in a lot of places there.
It's OK
I rolled my eyes. Shook my head. Then I smiled. Sigh... have my upvote!
Thank you! I do it all for the glory of the goofs.
Bless you! We need the smile these days!
I live here and know that, but its going be a deserted hell hole if all these data centers continue to get built here. 27 in Tulsa area alone won't be water for the rest of us. Hell the Gathering Place already makes the rest Arkansas River look like shit.
Spent the first half of my life in Tulsa. Shocked they didn't NIMBY the hell out of that project(s).
What's the Gathering Place? Haven't been back in many years.
It what they did to a huge part of Riverside park, near the walkable bridge was.

They dam up the river so you can rent kayaks and such. But keeps water flowing further down.
Ah! Now I remember. That's been built since I was back home.
Oh yeah few years now. I gone few times not impressed. Just fucking huge place that btw doesn't allow dogs.
Forgot to ask, where are these DCs going? Is it all one company?
No many and all over the place Coweta, Owasso etc. Not sure where all article didn't say on all of them. Oklahoma City getting 9 on top of the 27 in Tulsa area.
Why are they even building them in places that can't really support them anyway? Are the states giving them kickbacks or something? I don't get it.
They going to the cities not the state and with billions of dollars being thrown at them the city council fold like a cheap suit. Hell why they care many don't live where these things will operate.
Don't worry folks. This administration will work diligently to ensure no business feels the repurcussions of this disaster. Good luck to all the plebs that have to deal with it!
Hey, at least it wasn't molasses!
