So Florida has found an answer for dealing with employee shortages- change child labor laws to allow children(16-17) to work any hour of any day if they are homeschooled, eliminate working time restrictions for kids(14+), again, if they are homeschooled.

I'm catching myself falling into the same traps I did during the current POTUS's first admin, and particularly during Covid. Namely diving into rabbit holes trying to debate people on social media with reason, logic, and evidence. I need to get back to avoiding the rabbit holes.

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense. I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

AOC: I want to live in an America that guarantees healthcare to every person. I want to live in an America that has a living wage for every person I want to live in an America where you have free speech to express yourself and not be afraid of being put on a list or deported.

So now we have the POTUS saying he is going to go after people who protest Tesla as domestic terrorists. Yeah, they're all for freedom of speech alright.

Sorry everybody in the Twin Cities area. I realize it is my fault. I should have known better than to get my car washed yesterday.

I have this tendency to overbook myself a couple times a year. At the end of these periods I always build up the idea of taking a few days to finally just relax. Inevitably I instead spend those days dealing with some unfortunate illness. At least this time around it's just pain I have to deal with.

Nope not racist or misogynist at all- just letting go the highly qualified black Joint Chief Chairman because of diversity, equity, and inclusion with a white guy that requires a special exemption to qualify, and firing the also extremely qualified female Chief of Naval Operations.

My last load yesterday was carting the warming shanty across town, before zipping home for a quick change and a Nessa to get over to #Nanotako for the evening's speakeasy event. Lots of work throughout the day, and lots of fun last night. Dropped the truck off this morning. Brrrr!! ASP 2025 done!!!

Scored free tix to a comedy show at Xcel Center tonight so Nessa and I went out. Wow, y'all people who do this on the regular are crazy. $30 to park, $20 for a can of wine, $25 for a pretzel and lemonade. Yikes!

Musk claims all their actions are fully transparent and listed on their website. I have yet to find that website. doge.gov is literally a blank page with the words Department of Government Efficiency on it. And only thing that comes up in a search is a meme collection page.

So tell me again that the Republican administration isn't racist as it revokes protections from Venezuelans, Haitians, and others who previously entered the US legally via TPS seeking asylum, while offering asylum to the wealthiest population in South Africa, the Afrikaners of European Descent.

So much for Read-Access Only. "The Bureau of the Fiscal Service is a sleepy part of the Treasury Department. It’s also where, sources say, a 25-year-old engineer tied to Elon Musk has admin privileges over the code that controls Social Security payments, tax returns, and more."
