I must have been something like 18 when I voted in this WA governor election where the margin was within 100 votes, and ever since I've been very serious about voting, especially more local elections. You NEVER know. It also probably affected my likelihood to vote third party (reducing it) lmao
Wooden door with unglazed panels with metal leading of fleur de lis and rabbits? Maybe?

a facebook post about a cop car getting squished under a blown-over semi while responding to a separate blown-over semi. There are pictures of the blown-over semis, one of which is squishing a cop car.
so I said, sounds like you're just feeding semis and cop cars to the interstate,

Chickens can eat eggshells as a calcium supplement.
If I think there’s a chance that I might eat a bit of eggshell (e.g. peeling my boiled eggs this morning) it genuinely calms me down to think to myself “I’m basically a chicken. It would be extra calcium.”

Hell yeah
basically I have an ebike because I have exercise induced asthma (which doesn't even normally give me trouble!! I forget I have it!!!!) and when I try to ride a normal bike I go very quickly to "am I blacking out???" (this is actually how I realized I have asthma). Anyway the ebike is great!

I love how my huge cat makes my everyday objects look small. That is not a tiny laptop!
And then I’m sticking it with a light pink clematis and this darker pink climbing rose

A Facebook post showing a Zephirine Drouhin dark pink climbing rose sprawled over someone’s fence and lawn
A post showing the same type of rose trained over an arch
I ordered this climbing rose to train over the new garden bench I got, and I’m getting hype
(I have 50/50 success in getting roses to live through their first year here, so that’s the tension. This one will have a little more shade, which is probably both good and bad)

It’s spring when I say it’s spring, and I say it’s spring so I’m eating outside (it’s 45 and the breeze is cold)
The single way in which I subscribe to the logic of Nudge, or whatever that book is called
I don’t think it’s direct, I don’t think it’s “no more headphone jacks and immediately people become awful,” I think people gradually got more used to using speaker/loud mode/speakerphone and stopped thinking about it (or if they’re knowingly being rude it made it easier lol)
I literally think this is all a result of “no more headphone jacks, Bluetooth only” design. Like I used to be headphones only, but now when I’m home I’m only doing speakerphone calls and my volume’s up. Bluetooth headphones are so annoying and they drain battery, like it’s fine but
