I can't believe I forgot to bring my headphones to the car shop. A boomer just verbally asked his phone how old Teri Garr is and his phone shouted TERI GARR IS 79 YEARS OLD at him.

These polls have to be wrong, yeah? Because this would be utterly nihilistic behavior. I don't buy it. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/oct/22/arab-americans-poll-trump-harris-

My garden dill is thriving. Green and leafy, not a single aphid. All of this is going into a pot of herby rice.

Fort Collins also had a cop mayor, who went on to consulting with downtown nightclubs and other businesses on how to stay on the right side of the law. There seems to be a pattern 🤔

I think I found a nice geospatial use case for Python's typing.Protocol. Unless I'm mistaken, two projects can contain a common protocol, and have isinstance() interoperability without depending on each other in the import sense.

It's zucchini planting day. This narrow spot doesn't look like much but I'm having great results here. Enough sun, some late afternoon shade, runoff from the raised beds? It's great zucchini terroir.

Don't get me wrong, Texas Gov. Gregg Abbott is only slightly less cruel and evil than Lukashenko and Putin, who recruit refugees, take their money, and dump them on the borders of Poland and Finland. But as long as the US continues to destabilize its neighbors, we can't be NIMBYs about refugees in Colorado.
