"Microsoft has decided not to move forward with its proposed site for a data center in the Village of Caledonia after facing significant community pushback from residents."

I quote the quote:
"pushback from residents"

One of my favorite memories of riding MCTS is when my father worked 2nd shift and my mother worked 3rd shift, but their shifts overlapped. We would ride the bus with mom to her work and get donuts. My dad would drop the car off for mom (they kissed) and we would ride the bus back home with dad.

I deeply feel that most of the time I don't say much and that much of the time most of what I say is deeply felt.

No way I'm using hands free highway driving with my eyes closed conducting an orchestra in my head, especially with my kids in the car!

Horrible commercial FORD.
Shame.

I've been doing laundry in a laundromat. What we need is a coffee shop in the laundromat.
1. Coffee.
2. It would smell better.
3. for real, Coffee...

Im blank on a catchy name.
What should I name my coffee house laundromat?

Forgot the coffee...
Since I'm flavoring the coffee, just a basic medium roast.
1/8 cup or 30ml of ground coffee in the pour over.

I have a cone shapped coffee thing that takes a cone shaped filter and fits over my mug. the grounds stay in the filter.
Both mug and pour over are visible in this post. (yes I am a coffee slob). I removed the pour over while blooming.

...and who also seems to be buying up farmland as farmers go broke? Bill Gates.
BG owns a fuckton of farmland.
Why?

So, I made this "senescence" flavored coffee again today.
sharp, but yet sweet.
smooth, but yet rough.
delicious at all temperatures.
a casual coffee.

It pains me to know that I ran out of evaporated milk.

I saw an elderly guy yesterday with a home made hand held STOP sign and held it up to cars as he crossed in the marked crosswalk.
The light changed, they honked, and he paused to hold it out toward them.
Good for him. ๐Ÿ›‘
