The shopping list feature is the most used part of my Alexa, followed by morning weather report while I feed the animals, and then occasional music.

Every state I’ve lived in has had vote by mail. I’ve never voted at a polling place because of the convenience of vote by mail.

Happened to me playing helldivers last night. Luckily I did not die.

Ooh didn’t know about windows + arrow keys. Super useful!

If someone is using meth in prison, the whole prison should be shut down.

Lower interest rates also affect personal loans. Lower rates makes a new car more affordable.

Skin cancer is a bitch.

You may be interested in Aska. It asks the question “what if valheim was also a colony sim?”. It’s a bit less chill then Stardew/Portia, but it is a classless, moneyless community building game.

No clue. I tried to Google the article but to no avail.

I remember reading an article a month or two ago about a guy ordering a bunch of precursor amphetamines from China, and the distributor was able to route them through Mexico. He called it “simple” to acquire.

Influenza spreads better in the winter, but Covid seams to peak twice through the year, once in summer and again in winter. The best way to track it is through wastewater surveillance. This is the US tracking dashboard, not sure if Canada has something similar. https://www.cdc.gov/nwss/index.html

This is kinda funny because there is a company called LabCorp that does a lot of blood, urine, and tissue analysis for doctor’s offices.

City builders and colony builders are major time sinks. Anything with micro-tasks. I just need to finish this one building, I just need to finish this prisoner recruit, I just need to … And then it’s 3 am and you have to wake up at 6 for work. Civilization games do this to me too.

It’s not the individual contributors writing the website that are making these decisions, it’s people in $1000 suits, sitting on the 44th floor of a Manhattan skyrise asking “how do we make red line go up?”.

DU hast mich

Resorptive lesions? That’s what my guy has. Snaggletooths are also cute!

So cute! I have a tuxedo kitty named Toothless, but unfortunately, he is slowly living up to his name.

Actual cannibal Shia LeBeouf?

As a district 4 resident I’ll add some more context (and reason why we need ranked choice voting nationally). The Republican primary was packed, with 6 total candidates. Boebert only got 43% of the vote, and the next closest was Sonnenberg at 13%. The non-MAGA conservatives spread their votes across all the other candidates. With ranked choice, it would be a much closer margin. I’m not saying she would have lost, but over 50% of voting repubs wanted someone else over Boebert.

The “good” news is Boebert is pooling poorly vs Dems in the district, which means we have a chance to flip district 4 blue in November.
