Without republicans and our two-party voting method, who would vote for democrats? I bet Dems would win more elections if they worked harder on that question.
Trying to figure out how to unravel the political, cultural, and institutional brainworms of #CarSupremacy... with cars-for-brains democrats cancelling #CongestionPricing plans and trying to somehow fool themselves into making the DOTs solvent "with equity and climate as top priorities" is only going to further burden the poorest of kids with subsidies for the wealthiest of drivers.

for filling watering jugs, I'm trying to find some simple float nozzle thingy that would allow a few jugs to be filling from the rain barrel while you are watering plants with one or two (used 1gal milk jugs) but I'm not finding such a thing for less than $32 each fancy fuel nozzle, that seems to have a spring/trigger thing. It's going to fill with algae and get clogged with junk / a pain to clean if it's anything more complicated than a floating ball in a slotted tube
USPS from the other side of Portland to SW, package was sent on Wednesday... the status, last updated Thursday, is "In Transit to Next Facility, Arriving Late". 😒 wtf #FireDeJoy

😒 trying to teach kids to use the table / counter instead of spilling stuff down the front of the stove 🤦 The ceramic top is easy to clean, but have you ever taken those doors apart to clean behind the glass front?
