  My tiny local market does 40% off and then FREE for products near expiration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Smoking Sonic's Stinky Feet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The crux of my original post was that non-natives are often not invasive and are a good choice in a landscape. Because of disturbances, our built worlds aren’t even native environments leading to some natives species spreading invasively.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Smoking Sonic's Stinky Feet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  More colloquially aggressive natives, but certain species of goldenrod, milkweed, locust…can be invasive if not planted in an appropriate place and among other strong competition.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Smoking Sonic's Stinky Feet⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, many non-natives are not invasive and some natives are invasive. Right plant, right place.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California father arrested after repainting crosswalk, adding stop signs near children’s park⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The intersection was already a 2-way stop and, given the street topology and level of service, changing it to an all-way stop is benign.

  The concern I have is that part of the charges include painting the crosswalk where one already exists. That’s not “design[ing] their local traffic flow,” but following up with expected public works. Granted he painted a ladder design rather than a standard continental pattern, but you should probably just shut the fuck up in the future.

  These people are “farming” in retirement, not for a living. Basically have a bunch of ducks and a couple mule.

  Their actions in LA were ruled illegal and multiple cities have federal cases about Trump’s use of Title 10. Not sure how the Supreme Court has weighed in.

  Clearly parasitizing that brain coral.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon saves up⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I still don’t get how an employer FORCES you to take leave. Not rolling over PTO is a reason to coerce people into planning time off.

  Now overworking and not approving said PTO would be a different type of fuckery. However, truly unlimited PTO accrual is just a terrible liability for a company.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Charging to tour rental properties...⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If this weren’t such a huge red flag, I’d just knock on the door and pay the current tenant $5.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon saves up⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t “go poof” the means by which to force taking leave?

  You can’t contribute to the HSA but can spend it on qualified medical expenses or sit on it until age 59.5 and draw it down or use it to pay Medicare premiums starting at 65.

  No data, no map.

  GPS can give your coordinates, but that’s pointless unless you walk a bit and translate the direction.

  Compass uses most of its power for the screen.
