yup. the times I am happiest are when the plane departs or I see the skyline in my rear view mirror. It's not healthy.

were about to get some flurries tomorrow. however we have no idea what to do so it'll be more like a bunch of first time ice skaters flopping around on the road for those who drive tomorrow.

What’s a sign going to do when there is no enforcement of traffic laws? We have a “no right on red” sign at porter and riverside. Maybe 1 out of 100 people will not turn on a red. I even seen WeGo buses yolo the turn when it says “no right on red”

Pretty sure this website and most of the ones you use day to day is on AWS so it’s not that easy.

Is there a way to see how many fences are built that end up being out of compliance or blocking a RoW?

What purpose does this serve?
October 29, 2025 at 5:16 PM
I’m trying to understand why. Why am I like this? Other people something new as a challenge and dive in. I actively resist it in my mind. It’s not great because it affects everything.

Is it the burn out? Is it the general stress of everything right now? I wish I knew.

I dont remember this happening when I’d have to learn a song like while in music school, I just learned the easier parts first and then worked on the hard part. Programming though is different.

It would be so cool if the TNDP and the dems in office went to the red parts of the state and raised hell about the $2 billion we have in the rainy day fund and how republicans refuse to use it.
