Yes to all of this, and also:
* Electric leaf blowers are an option and avoid most of the problems with the gas ones. Significantly quieter. No pollution.
* Once you get rid of the noise and pollution, they can be a useful tool even for things you don't expect (e.g, gutter cleaning attachments).

My Senator! Thank you. Please withhold unanimous consent on time restrictions to give more time for constituents to convince your colleagues to join you in voting no on cloture. Please move for new leadership in the Senate. It was clear Schumer hadn't met the moment even before his surrender.

Asked and answered. Even the most loyal Dems have turned on Schumer.

I don’t know if any of Schumer’s staffers will resign over this, and would never ask that of anyone working a hard job under tough circumstances. But if they did, they’d be showing more courage than all 46 other Senate Dems, who are trying to fool their voters with kabuki.

I literally just got off the phone with Wyden’s Portland office and was told he hadn't committed on cloture vote. So yes, you're right.

I forgot to mention, I bought the hardcover because I don't want to risk a court order causing an electronic version to be pulled from my library by an ebook provider.

Yep. That’s the screen that I stopped at because I wanted to understand the practical difference. Maybe I’ll try both and see which I like best.

We've watched Encanto more than once with the cats in the room. They weren't moved. The kids on the other hand…
Our dog has occasionally looked at the screen, but didn't pay attention. The cats have never shown any interest. That's why this was so fun to see.
