I had to go buy a Covid test and bring it back to prove negative before they would allow me to be seen. Craziness.

Got turned away from urgent care because “you might have Covid.” Like…isn’t this what you do?

Facebook support just told me to "stop overthinking it" so I may have reached a new level of anxiety/millenialism.

Because no one seems to be talking about this on Bluesky.

Why has no one mocked up a graphic of the constitutional amendments so we are cross them all off as he disregards them? Seems like it's a good place to start so we (EVERYONE) can see this all visually.

Costco's shareholders overwhelmingly reject anti-DEI proposal Costco's shareholders voted overwhelmingly to reject a motion that would seek report on the risks of diversity, equity and inclusion in the company's hiring practices.

Costco’s shareholders voted overwhelmingly to reject a proposal from a conservative think tank aimed at getting the company to roll back its diversity hiring practices.

We’ve stood strong before—this time is no different. Together, we’ve got this.

This is the funniest karma ever.

Quite bold of @cnn.com to keep their journalists in a life-threatening situation just to finish a live shot - but then actually doing a story about it.

Ok, I’m not usually a government conspiracist, but if THAT’S the Famous Idaho Potato, then who the hell is THAT?? #stuntdouble

I love how all health gurus tell your health will be amazing if you get more sleep. Like…sir, do you really think I can get more than the 10 hours I get now??

Do you have it written that they cannot upload to any external sites (including rules of ethics from the school, etc.)? Because one could argue that having AI break down the slides could constitute personal use.

Right?! It’s considered a hockey stick which is considered a weapon. Apparently.

Bought a baby hockey stick for my nephew. Did not fit in my suitcase so I figured it would be ok as a carry-on. The answer is NO, no it’s not.

Also, the TSA people do not love it when you ask them why hockey skates are ok as a carry-on but not mini hockey sticks. In case you were wondering.

My house is a child-free zone, so problem solved 😀

Idaho will be an important piece of if and I rarely know anyone there who even knows about it. There will be tens of thousands of refugees who will relocate there, and they don’t have enough housing for the people the have. It’s all pretty crazy.

Yeah totally get it. We have the shelter of Washington state here but Spokane is very much still Idaho politics. I didn’t move far enough away.

We are covered by Washington state decisions here, but culturally this is very much Idaho.

Born & raised in Idaho but it wasn't until I moved to Oregon that I ever heard of the Cascadia Subduction Zone. As a reminder, here is one of the articles I wrote about it:

Definitely come here first - the city itself is not great. There are some nice areas though, especially if you want to stay in WA: Liberty Lake, Cheney, etc. I'd probably rather live in CDA before Spokane though.

That makes more sense!

Locals are also not incredibly welcoming, but that can probably be said of many places.

I am from Boise and there are a lot of differences here. Spokane is more dirty, with less thought toward the future. The pros are people aren’t really moving here like they are to Boise.

The traffic issue should be done when the north-south freeway opens, but that’s 2028.

Was it better or worse?

That's a good point! This should feel comfy then.

But...as a metaphor for our lives for the next 4 years.
