Depends how high into the triple digits, whether there’s shade and water available, how humid it is, whether air conditioning is an option, etc.
I would probably choose triple digits. I do love cold winters, but a dry 104F with a cool place to swim and big, shady trees is splendid. Beyond about 110F gets miserable, though.
“To The Department of Energy: DRILL, BABY, DRILL!!! And I mean NOW!!!” he added on Truth Social.
Fun fact #1: The department of energy does not control oil drilling. Sorry Donald, they can’t unilaterally make it happen.
Fun fact #2: Not all oil is equal. Refineries are designed to process certain grades of oil into specific products, and different parts of the world have different grades. Refineries also often blend oils from different parts of the world to get the characteristics they need for their process.
Fun fact #3: Moving domestic petroleum products between the west coast and the rest of the US is an expensive pain in the ass. There is a distinct lack of pipelines, so you need to ship it through the Panama canal. But shipping is expensive thanks to the Jones Act. So California, Oregon, and Washington would get particularly screwed in a domestic-only oil market.
“Drill, baby, drill!” has always been an immensely stupid rallying cry, even if you don’t care about the environment.
That was my first thought. Where are all the self-described Libertarians who should be losing their shit over this? They should be in the street screaming “posse comitatus!” at the tops of their lungs.
The trend toward subdued color palettes. Every new home is decorated in “millennial gray.” Most cars are black, white, gray, or silver. You have to go out of your way to find bright, colorful clothing or furniture. It’s incredibly boring and I can’t wait for the pendulum to swing back the other way.
Free is good, of course. But I also have some gripes about how Band functions so I’m interested to see what else is out there. Thanks for the Campfire recommendation; I will check it out.
Hail to thou, Sol Invictus,

This joke was inspired by me stealing it from somebody else on the internet. We’re a bunch of Fun Lovin’ Criminals here.
(I know they’re from the 90’s, but I couldn’t help myself.)
I heard it’s an avian virus, being spread by a Flock of Seagulls making a Journey across Asia.

The 1st Amendment hasn’t stopped the current administration from deporting hundreds of legal residents for simply voicing their political opinions. Constitutional rights aren’t worth the paper they’re written on.
And did you see today’s news? We’re arresting judges now.
Careful, that’s how that one evil boyfriend in Scott Pilgrim died.
A third of eligible voters didn’t vote. The remaining people who did vote were almost evenly split. So, in rough numbers, 1/3rd of American voters put us all in this mess.
A full, refreshing night of sleep every night.
If it wasn’t already abundantly clear, the current administration gives zero fucks about the judiciary.
The folks that host the toast.ooo instance have run an event like that for us the past two summers. Check out !canvas@toast.ooo to see last year’s result, and watch for news about the next one.
This reminds me that I need to plan some art for the next event!
At work I usually need to have multiple windows up, so no one window spans the width of the display. It’s often nice to have two documents side-by-side instead.
Tbh, I copy-pasted this from a health website. As far as I know, dried and canned beans are comparable. The biggest difference is that canned beans usually have added salt, which a lot of us could probably do without.
I would rather find ways to encourage people to eat foods that are natural sources of magnesium. They provide lots of other dietary benefits beyond just magnesium.
Soy products (milk, flour, tofu)
Legumes and seeds
Nuts (almonds, cashews, Brazil nuts)
Peanuts and peanut butter
Whole grain breads and cereals (brown rice, millet)
Fruit (bananas, dried apricots, etc.)
Vegetables, particularly dark green, leafy vegetables (artichokes, chard, beet greens, avocados, etc.)
Dried beans (lima, black-eyed peas, navy)
I’ll bet the lane is there purely to satisfy some requirement for including non-car infrastructure, regardless of whether it makes sense in this particular location. It’s the same way we get fun bike lanes like these:
