Solid album. "I'm Losing You" is an all-time classic track.

Reasonable people can disagree, and this is a community that cares deeply about traffic safety.

Personally, I consider "police state" to mean a government that monitors individuals' private activity. Monitoring the operation of registered and regulated machines in public space seems reasonable.

I'm not sure offhand where to find that data. The City did a tree canopy study in 2018, I'd reach out to the people involved with that and see what they have.

I remember ordering this in France, thinking it must be similar to Cajun andouille. Pretty hard to see (or smell) the resemblance.

My SIL was crazy about the momos and some dish consisting of fried goat innards. The wife and I are more paneer tikka masala people than goat guts and yak people, so we tend to hit Spice Kraft a lot more often ourselves

My Nepalese sister-in-law visited recently from Seattle and claims Royal Nepal is the most authentic Nepalese food she's had in the US. We ate there 4 times during her weeklong visit last year.

But yes, Namaste is also great.

They want 'service cuts' but also better schools, more responsive police/fire, and myriad infrastructure improvements.
