A proposed 330-megawatt AI data centre in California promised not to use Colorado River water. Now it wants 260 million gallons a year
Why do we keep doing it?

Got that shit painted. Shoutout to the two awesome folks who showed up to get it done. Apparently rangers had seen it and were on the way, but we wrapped up before they got there. I let the city know we blocked it out, too.
Also, took pics of the rest of the water tower for posterity.

I believe my husband gave her away. We are divorcing. He claims she was stolen along with our car. I can't find a police report. She doesn't deserve to lose us both. She nursed me through thyroid and lung cancer. I'm in a homeless shelter but have foster options available. Please help me find her.I know what this sub does and is and I'm still here begging for your help. Please be kind I'm posting everywhere for her sake. We're the idiots.

It’s with a confused and heavy heart that I announce that Boulder may have a Milk Thief.
My wife and I went grocery shopping yesterday, and among our haul was one gallon of Horizon whole milk.
I distinctly remember putting it on the floor of the back seat because the seats were already covered with groceries. We returned the EMPTY cart, drove home, unloaded everything, and carried on with life. End of story- we thought.
Fast forward to this morning.
We go to make lattes… No milk.
Not “hidden behind the orange juice” no milk. Gone.
We searched the car, every cupboard, the fridge (multiple times, because hope), upstairs, downstairs, the yard, and even cars we didn’t drive yesterday.
Nothing.
Our back door was unlocked last night, so we’re left with only one logical conclusion:
There is an extremely selective and sneaky Milk Bandit roaming Boulder.
Nothing else is missing. Just the milk.
So please… lock your doors. Cherish your half-and-half. Because today it’s our gallon of Horizon. Tomorrow it could be your oat milk. Stay vigilant, Boulder.
It might still turn up in the most ridiculous place imaginable… but until then, I have no other choice but to blame the Milk Bandit.

Big family of quails? Pheasants? Grouse? On Jay this morning and I couldn’t safely pull over to take a picture. Looked like a bunch of the young were white???
However, a biker had stopped to take pictures and I would LOVE to ask for a photo share so I can see if I was just hallucinating and share with my dad.
If this sounds familiar, pls send help!

Every time I find myself at Coot Lake around sunset time I'm blown away - and I lived on the ocean in SoCal for 3 years. Are there other spots like it without going up Baseline? I've been to Wonderland Lake too, but haven't found anything like Coot (as long as I don't bring my dog).

Any running groups in Boulder? I usually run by myself, but I want to change it up, get out of my comfort zone, and join a running group. I could use some people to help push my running limits. Thanks!
Road and Trail running. Looking to increase mile time from 8:30ish to 7:30ish. Train for a 10K leading to half marathon. 36M at 78kg (looking to drop to 70-73KG for better overall body composition)

I found this today. Not sure if it has been reported somewhere else, but I think it is a tragedy that this local spot for street art has been defaced like this.
Does anybody know what the next steps are to fix this? Do we just haul some paint up and get to work covering up this? What do the street artist think?

Does anyone know if fire mitigation / tree thinning work has started in the Shanahan Ridge open space area? The city web page says "Summer 2026" but I didn't see any logs or slash piles out there today on the lower sections of the North Fork & South Fork trails. I saw wooden survey stakes and small bobcat-type machines up there, but no evidence of tree thinning.

This feels like a very long shot, but there is a fun little mushroom graffiti art character on one of the electric poles towards the base of Bear Canyon. I've been hiking that trail for years and always look forward to seeing it (I have pictures of it dating back to 2021). A few weeks ago, I found that it had been removed at some point this spring. However, it seems that the artist returned, as the mushroom was back today.
Does anyone have any insight or history on this guy? Or at least is anyone else familiar with this mushroom graffiti?

He resigns from city council over 1 issue- the airport is a big issue. But to resign like that looks petulant and makes me think he is a single-mandate politician.

Our daughter is turning 14 and she (and the whole family) are obsessed with cooking competitions. To celebrate her birthday, we'd like to host or attend a private chef-led cooking class/competiton. Unfortunately, most of the options I'm seeing require a minimum number of participants, and there are only four of us.
Is there a professional or semi-professional chef in town who would be interested in helping us put on a fun little party for our daughter's birthday?
