Miller: "If you had a choice between a doll from China that might have lead paint from it that is not as well constructed, as a doll made in America that has a highly environmental and regulatory standard & those two products are both on Amazon, that yes, you probably would be willing to pay more."

each day i think things couldn’t get anymore batshit crazy. but then another day comes and it does.

when i managed folks - i often thought i was a terrible manager and focused on the areas i needed improvement on. not saying i was perfect, but in retrospect i think i was being too hard on myself.

wondering if i'm gonna have to make arrangements to travel to Windsor every year to stay up to date with immunizations, since it doesn't sound like the States are going to.

if you are taught to be patriotic, or taught to love, are you really patriotic and do you really love?

i don’t find focusing on people’s addiction as a useful method for evaluating their wisdom or intelligence. It further stigmatize addiction and further discounts the humanity of those that have used or are actively using. Many or the wisest people I have known were actively using or in recovery.

a Gherkin Records special? yes please NTS. www.nts.live

Detroit Garden nerds - can you please return your overdue Piet Oudolf books to DPL? i wanna read them.

sounds like there is pretty good chance the Satanic Temple is gonna be opening a charter school in Oklahoma.

why wouldn’t you want folks to know how much tariff they are paying? assuming that you wish to support domestic production you would think you would want people to see how much they are paying so they would support purchasing domestic products.

the jobs of the future, where you will be a hereditary serf producing goods for your betters

i have seriously considered switching over to a dumb phone, but i don’t think i could give up the transit apps. crucial for bus riding.

going through the dance records and cleaning the house. youtu.be/beHrgZQXdZw?...

just finished reading Andrew Holleran’s “Dancer from the Dance”. had seen it referenced in books about the New York Disco scene and assumed it would be something of a pulp novel, but it is very well written and highly enjoyable. On hoopla if you swing that way.

i haven’t listen to this - but i think this person may be one of the main folks responsible for all the great things happening in the Detroit Library’s music section. so i will.

can anyone explain how this keeps showing up when I try to listen to a full album in youtube? always this one, all different types of music. youtu.be/qfHY26ZnYj4?...
