There is no problem. If you can do 8 hours of work (well) in 4 hours, you should be able to use the extra time however you want.

The government is supposed to be by us, for us. Technically, we get to define what the government’s scope is. But we make that decision as a group.

This is more efficient and cost effective anyway. It’s bonkers we don’t let people select their own food.

That sounds pretty awesome. My kids are a bit on the young side and don’t have a great grasp of English so that might be a little bit challenging for them. Maybe when they’re older…

For my kiddos it is a disability. 😕 They have amazing talents, but he world just isn’t built for them.

They are the BEST. I wish I could still eat them. My kids carry on the tradition.

How did this get funded!?

They don’t cover the whole state - just the Puget Sound area and not all of that is electrcity. We have a bunch of PUDs, which is a far superior model in my mind. I’d be willing to organize to get PSE out.

There’s only like 5 of those in this area (Seattle). The rest are Cyber trucks.

So I work with public utilities / co-ops (different from private utilities). One of the challenges I consistently see is the utilities are handed a bunch of regulations without the funding to adequately support them. This strikes me as similar. Lineman safety is a real concern. I suspect it could be mitigated, but those mitigations probably come with a cost. The easiest fix is to fund lineman safety measures in the bill.

I mean, anyone can take the time and effort to pretty up for their partner. I suspect it would be appreciated 👍

I’m like 97% sure that this sport started on a dare.

For what?!?

Are you in the PNW? I wonder if there are safer places to forage than others.

I live in the PNW, where there are several varieties of poisonous mushrooms, including death caps. Apparently people can safely forage for mushrooms - but it scares the crap out of me because of the exact scenario in this article.

Was it his trigger finger? Because at this point I think that’s self-defense

This move is probably one that makes me the most hopeful. Most leaders mask the shitshow they’ve inherited out of some sort of misguided effort to be polite or not drag their preticessor through the mud. Clearly articulating the mess opens the door for Mamdani to make more dramatic changes and probably more quickly (having established some urgency). I was on the fence about his actual ability to execute - but I’m excited I could be wrong.

I think of him more like the next John McAfee.

The onion is shockingly insightful.
