Why is "saving taxpayer dollars" such a hot point? Pool our money to feed/house/trasport/educate/heal people, independent of their drug use or immigration status. We don't need to damn people out of basic life supports. And, those are domestic industries wanting ongoing investment.
I'm here for this, and (when I think to) shape my greetings to invite it.
In 2025, let's put to bed "how are you doing?" as a small talk starter. I don't trust someone who says they're doing great.
In my solo walking pace: I did in 15 minutes a walk Google maps estimated at 25 minutes
"CJ, you're not supposed to hit people's heads with your hat"
- normal words at my work, name changed
This. Boycotts are for me as much as they are for the world. When facing vuglarity at every turn, accepting a bit of inconvenience to say no to the most-vulgar is reclaiming a modicum of power.
I spent 45 minutes converting expense data into an analysis toold, and another 45 minutes polishing directions on its use into a 91 word concise & easily-readable instruction email.
Both is fine!
"Iβm a pessimist because of intelligence, but an optimist because of will."

An adversary's general-purpose, low-cost AI sounds much safer to widely adopt than their social media platform.
I remember when Fetterman had nobler aspirations than being the next Joe Manchin

Set yourself a timer when reheating soup, so you don't end up with Italian Wedding crust
IMO the car alternatives need improvement before no-parking housing is a realistic sell (to those avoiding cycling/trainsit out of safety conerns). Vision Zero and doubled Septa funding would lead to the housing style we need.
I long for a future where painful policy lessons are in history class instead of the news.
Wondering if my cat appreciates the thriftiness of my used meal plates as his meal plates, saving a modicum of dish washing.
Often using laptops & desktops, I almost fold the desk monitor down at least once/month.
My legs say I can still vault waist-high fences & walls, while these cuts on my hand say "just step around it next time"
Many folks near me would do well with a $900/mo 1br near mass transit, but this country insists on triple to cover personal vehicles & investment vehicles.
Is there any pretending you meant to tie dye the table?
Gideon reports a classmate said she can read 2Ο books. My geometry is rusty, but I bet she'll knock out that 7th book some day.
how do you like it? I'm still on my 15 yr old Das Keyboard and have a few Model Ms dying in the basement.
Just had such a warm and peaceful bus ride that I'm walking back seven blocks to where I forgot to disembark.
The disparity of prep vs action in fixing my school's gym projector (planning & executing the scaffold setup & takedown vs changing the bulb) resembles the enormity of focus I have to rustle up for some of my tiny to-do's.
On my third decade of buying little or nothing on #buynothingday
When your mandate of risk management is renamed to "solving for problems we don't have"
ooph, I'm also Mary
Working in nonprofit, the regular risk /occurrence of layoff *is* a part of my identity π π.
Envious of his Thursday energy
Two street signs on a post: "speed hump" and "20 M.P.H."
Glad these are by my school but I wonder if a different name could've been chosen
just now noticing the app skewed my image π€¦ββοΈ
