You should say something else.

The restrictions were especially frustrating because she felt that management should have disclosed that information during the apartment tour before she signed her lease.

The restriction is most likely in the lease itself. It may also be a fire code violation if the apartment has fire sprinklers.

Bread's gained notoriety, and caused much anxiety, in the Audubon Society.

Maybe blood plasma, but not living blood cells.

My God! That's monstrous. I've never heard of anything so negligent. I'll have no part of it.

Genesis allowed is not!

Fun fact: Charles-Henri Sanson served as the chief executioner of Paris under both King Louis and Robespierre, and also was their executioner when their time came.

The best way to make money in Las Vegas is to sell light bulbs.

When in doubt, shut up.

  • The only material thing it seems to do is create a new private cause of action that would allow anyone to challenge voter rolls. What does that look like in practice? The proposition text is silent on that.

  • It says the government shall use "best efforts" to verify citizenship using various records and databases. That's an unreasonably low standard and an unreasonably vague process.

Moreover, what exactly is the life support system doing that means near-instant death if you turn it off? Breathable air and heat should last for hours at least.

 

I don't like fixing my own flat tires. I can do it but not quickly or efficiently; it's not something I can do on the side of the road under duress. I should probably work on that, I know, but in the meantime I take my bike to a local shop and have them do it for me.

But my ebike is pretty heavy, which means a flat tire is basically immobilizing. I've had to call a friend or hire a truck when I get a flat. I'm wondering if there's anything like an auto club for cyclists. Maybe even a service that would fix my flat right there on the spot.

I googled, but don't trust the search results. Does anyone have any recommendations or suggestions?

Took a wrong turn yesterday and didn't realize it for quite a while. Stopped here to get my bearings.

 

Encountered these big boys while exploring a local bike trail. The photo doesn't do them justice.

 

Attended the 40th anniversary screening of The Voyage Home in San Francisco tonight.

Nick Meyer was there to answer questions, and was honored by the City of San Francisco with a mayor's certificate for his movies featuring San Francisco.

I cleaned out the junk drawer and found a bunch of Starbucks gift cards that I've received for various reasons over the past 15 years. I used one from 2015 today and the barista was mildly surprised and asked where I got such an old-style card. So I told him about the junk drawer.
