If you see my kayak and fishing poles tell them I miss them and I hope I get to spend more time with them when my son is a few years older.

Interested people are interesting.

And in a similar but completely different way, the fish are being added to massive bodies of water. Home aquariums are minute in comparison, so they can’t balance out chemical swings as easily and are much more prone to higher levels of nitrites and other toxic chemicals. The larger the body of water, the more stable the water quality.

I knew and I clicked anyway. God dammit.

Can’t say I’m enamored by the description of the plot, but I absolutely adore this album, so I’m still tempted to check it out.

I’m not inherently opposed to the Senate as a concept, I think it can serve as an important check/balance, but for it to exist while the house has been capped and stripped of its offsetting powers is completely asinine. I also think that attempting to get anything done in the house with 1,000 members may also be unproductive however. Perhaps capping the house to a reasonable number of representatives while also adjusting voting power to proportionally match the most current census could work. Some representatives may cast 1.3 votes while others may cast .7 votes.

I don’t run in gloves often because I’m so much warmer when I’m running than I am when I’m walking or standing outside. I generally dress as if it were 20 degrees warmer than it is, but it can be problematic for the first bit of a run. What I’ve found works best for me is running a short loop that comes back to my house in an easy to remove jacket, hat, and gloves that I can drop off at the door on my way past then continuing with the bulk of my run. In these cases any old gloves will do. When I do wear gloves for the full run, I wear a pair of thin, but insulated gloves from Heat that I got at Costco. They have silver in the fingers, so I can use my phone. It’s more difficult than without the gloves, but it’s not like I’m using my phone much mid run anyway.

My wife liked the idea of Eleanor if we had a girl, I never liked it, but luckily we had a boy, so we didn’t have to cross that bridge.

At work, we named the old, decrepit copier Opal in an effort to humanize it and get people to treat the old girl with more love and patience.

We are all mammal people on this blessed day.

I thought the god chose the person who had suffered more of the gods torture.

Speaking of ships, Penelope could launch a thousand.

I don’t think my head ever touches my headrest when I’m driving. Rarely, I’ll lean back while sitting still, but that’s the only time I’m ever even aware of it.

I’m torn between my love for character actress Margo Martindale and my desire to not give Amazon any of my money.

Quick, somebody get this guy on the ballot!

I drive a newer Tacoma. It looks like a little baby next to full-sized pickups, but it’s a giant if I pull up next to an older Tacoma at a traffic light.

I think most students are copying/pasting instructions to GPT, not uploading documents.

The good news here is that all the signs in Cherry county still all only account for fifteen voters (thank goodness cattle can’t vote), so a lot of Osborne signs in Omaha is still a good sign. My mom is very excited for him in Grand Island. There’s some support out west.

While I agree that at its heart it’s a red vs blue issue, I’ve seen more than enough explicitly sexist commentary from Trump supporters, most commonly suggesting that Kamala has attained her status via sexual favors rather than years of public service.

I, a high school English teacher, reread “A Good Man is Hard to Find” today. Shit hits different when you have your own kids.

I just started getting into Enshrouded. It seems fun so far, but I haven’t gotten very far yet. I’m playing with a group of friends and it seems a little harder to juggle solo vs group play in Enshrouded than it was in Valheim since it’s more quest/exploration based for experience.
