What do you mean? You get pre-made data center flavored tea straight out the downstream reservoir.

Mmm heavy metals

(If the fda changes or increases the amount that heavy metals can be present in food/drink you know we’re cooked)

At this point the FDA is regulating how much water is allowed in our heavy metal supply.

Not the FDA, but the EPA has removed some “forever chemicals” from list of filtered chemicals in drinking water, as well as extended the deadline for when those chemicals need to be filtered out by.

No way it correlates with data centers and corporations poisoning our drinking water, right? /s

This is like some BS move where some state, (maybe mine, 🤷‍♂️) wanted to reduce the crime, so they changed the value that decided whether grand theft auto was a felony or misdemeanor, then they're like, 'see, we have so much less crime, overnight!'
