Yeah, but the restrictions are also getting loosened to fill some of the positions. So we’re getting the people we never thought should be on the police force either 😬 at least that’s the case in Chicago. It makes for a worse experience over time.

Don’t get me wrong, there is so much reform that’s needed still. If there’s an emergency I am calling the police, and I’d like someone who knows what they’re doing to respond.

Lovingly hold the dog and do dog-weighted squats

Is there a playbook you find effective to achieve his goal, and what is the timeline?

I find it hilarious that the image is of Google Play and the title used the word “this”. Pretty misleading

The more expensive Bike+ does it, but not the regular one. It’s a hard sell given the price difference.

This looks amazing. I’m impressed you even have the little stainless steel containers.

Hot damn! That looks amazing 🤩

Between the phrasing of the title and the image of her, absolutely yes.

All the HELL IS REAL and anti-abortion billboards too.

The Chicago as a reference point had me cracking up.

Just another 500 miles and I’ll be home!

Karma is a weak excuse when used to justify bad behavior. I can see it as a useful tool for coming to acceptance for a unfortunate events, but I still think it’s poor because it means that one has previously committed sins and that’s ridiculous. As far as acceptance goes, some things just “are” and what’s right or wrong will only cause mental suffering. Of course, I don’t believe in reincarnation, so not everyone will share that.

I was going to expand and relate it to a violence bank one can pull from, but I’d rather not further dwell on this any further.

Wrecked me 😭

I looked up a list of countries without extradition to the US and it’s a short list today. I’m not sure what it was when this took place, but it’s probably quite similar. Not many of the options seem like an appealing long term plan 🙃

I recall Snowden speaking out against WikiLeaks because they were a seemingly unfiltered trove of secrets disseminated, and he considered it reckless. Whereas Snowden worked with Greenwald and his team and ultimately had them figure out what to be published.

I definitely remember WikiLeaks and the Clinton campaign though! I thought that was a Julian Assange thing.

It’s pretty crazy that he left his cushy job getting paid a government contractor salary and living in Hawaii and end up in Russia living in exile. He didn’t strike me as someone who hates America - but someone who hated the abuse of power and lies. Which is all the more ironic. I still can’t reconcile it. I understand that America isn’t ALWAYS the good guy, and it’s got a long history of awful things. But Russia? I still don’t get it.

I rented a 2020 Mitsubishi Outlander in 2022 and it was amazing how unresponsive it was. It’s a small SUV with the engine of a hamster. It has a “sport mode” that really struggled to get me up some hills in Colorado.

Also, the rubber seal for the door, on 3 of the doors, was constantly feel off and could be worn as a second seatbelt.

Near a previously active volcano in Iceland. Now, it’s probably burned from lava, as the volcano is erupting again.

I signed up to run a half marathon. I have never ran that far in my life.
