Seattle sno update: this morning we had another round of snow. Except this time it was warm heavy wet snow. Result: Seattle is now a dirty slushy.
That was one heck of a workout walking through. @.@ The areas where we still had deep snow weren't so bad but the high travel areas are an ice/snow/slush mix that's horrid to move in.
Especially as I just had running shoes on
6 inches of snow. Plus side it's pretty, and it's light and fluffy instead of the wet heavy stuff we usually get. My (not waterproof) shoes + thick socks kept me warm and dry the entire walk.
Since this area doesn't get salted or plowed the roads are covered, lots of people sledding. And less ice under the sno.
Sno.
The dog was very confused this morning as instead of letting him out for a pee in back, we took him for a walk. And then there was this cold chest deep white stuff?!
*shove shove bound trot bound bound PLOW*
Also half the stairs disappeared..the snow is so thick we only needed to take every other step o.O
@drifa Why does your tech document even care about that one way or the other? o.O
unless there's some weird context I don't know I don't think native speaker is an offensive term here.
US pol, vent
So last night a Republican proposed a bill amendment about "not hiking the minimum wage to $15 during a pandemic". It passed 100-0.
to a predictable reaction about the Dems "abandoning" people.
Except the amendment doesn't do shit. Sanders minimum wage plan doesn't raise to 15 til 2024 after which the pandemic will be over.
please, please restrain the knee jerk urges and THINK about things before you react. Especially when dealing with literally conservative propaganda ops!
@catgoat Awoo has an implementation of this, though I guess it's a little hacky and annoying?
@anthracite What, you don't like freezing because you can't mix the water properly?
yeah ours is like that too. it's annoying as hell
@JulieSqveakaroo because you hate sleep?
re: meta, flippant
@kistaro And the blocklist grew three sizes that day..
Helped of course by all the furious angry posting that...barely talks about anything.
(when I got to the bottom of the snouts thing I blinked, went "really,that's it?" sighed and blocked a bunch of people for being jackasses)
@kistaro As someone von the middle of one of those all night you have my sympathies!
@Aradia Suggest: Santa is Anubis's intern. Less pressure less responsibility with just one years gifts on the line
