Texas sues Pornhub owner for not adding age verification requirements

Hey AG Ken Paxton, what happened to less government in private affairs? This is a parenting issue. Are you now all for the nanny state? Or is it the ol double standard of government interference is ok but only in the matters which you say it's ok? Maybe concentrate on all those pending criminal charges, or the whistleblower lawsuit, or the illegal dealings with donors, and get your hand out of everyone's pants.

College towns are great in my opinion. Especially many of the small(ish) towns where large public land grant universities are located. (Penn State/Happy Valley, University of Florida/Gainesville, heck most every SEC school for that matter, Cornell University/Ithaca, etc.) The towns often grow around the universities. The schools bring in events that the towns otherwise would never have (concerts/plays/art exhibits/speakers/etc) not to mention college sports. You have some of the best and brightest, including students, faculty, researchers, doctors, in a confined local area. Education and diversity are valued. The universities are often the biggest employer in town, pay well, and attract lots of companies and people who benefit from the symbiotic relationship. You have people from all different walks of life. And usually the cost of living is reasonable. All in all, usually pretty good places to live.

Lauren Boebert's son made sex tape with fellow suspect(who was a minor): affidavit

"She also said: 'I love my son Tyler, who has been through some very difficult, public challenges for a young man and the subject of attention that he didn't ask for."'

I don't condone the alleged actions but I'd rather not have the 18y.o. kid/young adult's bad choices splayed across national media outlets. Unfortunately for him, while he didn't ask for the public attention, his mother's incessant need for attention all but guarantees anything he does will not stay a private or just locally known matter. His "public challenges" likely would not be so public but for his mother's narcissism.
