Since people seem to be using this to put feature requests the little symbols for topics are a massive barrier to using Blue Sky with a severe visual processing disorder. There is no mouseover feature so I know is that photo or book etc.. It would help those who have a less total issue too

To remind people to eat too. They are very good at remembering that. Although they can complicated this same thing a lot. Every time I visited my older brother and his wife the time spent every day on what should we have to eat and who is getting the food vs splitting up the deciding is high

It isn't although there is a cultural component to it, Although for me it is complicated by feeling like I have the education to know better when yet again I find myself in a situation where words that have meaning to me and thus I go with them as meaningful to others vs the stating of the words

It is a bit related to emojis and as many have never heard of visual processing disorder it is hardly surprising that it is not taken into account when deciding how to do things Still a barrier to my even using Blue Sky is that a few of my interests have icons that I cannot tell apart

ICE was abused by previous administration's.
It is on the terrifying side to see things end due to the whackadoodles who hold sway on your President.
The problem overall is some issues predates him. There is a risk in thinking regime change will fix things.

Law I guess is m a weak tool if the absolute power to act outside it somehow exists.
It is not exactly reassuring that better will happen as instead of pressure on the US over detention of foreign nationals a fair bit of groveling is going on. Sigh

A bad idea even when you could rely on non-catastrophic choices on the who runs for President front. Lots of countries have radishes where rules that never existed due to the expectation that as those unwritten rules had never been broken they would not be. Still it is different if you add nukes.

Canada is paying for billboards as he does make it seem like it generates revenue. His supporters use tariff as a verb and threat. Trying to explain them to As provinces have been allowed to do price hikes the 2 states people who say "we'll tariff you too" is not easy. It feels sad even.

From grade 7 to university I lived in BC's poorest school district (before a change to how schools are funded) The unexpected gift of this was the schools had us memorize a lot to save wear and tear on the books. In adult life there are so many times when these poems have been useful.

Geography has not changed. The US cannot meet there actual needs. They could be invaded by a picnic . In university I took Expressive Therapies. Asked to draw a house I drew a bunker. Total nuclear war had been a when not if my whole life. You cannot be defeatist from the start.

Due to MAID's expansion to the non-terminally ill disabled, and the extreme disregard for our lives it takes more than a new leader to erase that harm. As all parties are culpable in not making it harder if I am healthy enough I will run.

That makes sense. Sadly my friend in England is strangely a-historic. She's trying to lure me back having moved behind a ruin. Still that bits of Roman road would be uncovered filled me with wonder. Her mocking of me leaving me at a museum in the South did ensure the docent let me handle coins

Nice. There are a lot of snakes on this property. I lived my life until living here thinking Eek was for cartoons and comics . Then 2 out of 3 who came by to assess my mobility fled uphill screaming eek. There mobility was excellent. I do make the 'yard' snake and amphibian friendly.

It has been too long since I have been in Aarhus . I didn't know I missed things neuro-ophthalmology until a level of eye doom got me in to the neuro-ophthalmologist. He needed to have a bunch more for him to get out much . Now I want to be in Aarhus. Lucky you.

When I could sit to play the drums we'd play on health authority dementia units as they only funded direct patient care. They all wanted it but as a part of a non-profit we could play for fresh cookies. A man who was severely catatonic stood. To " I Walk the the Line" he danced with a memory
