Can't say I'm enamored by the description of the plot, but I absolutely adore this album, so I'm still tempted to check it out.

I'm not inherently opposed to the Senate as a concept, I think it can serve as an important check/balance, but for it to exist while the house has been capped and stripped of its offsetting powers is completely asinine. I also think that attempting to get anything done in the house with 1,000 members may also be unproductive however. Perhaps capping the house to a reasonable number of representatives while also adjusting voting power to proportionally match the most current census could work. Some representatives may cast 1.3 votes while others may cast .7 votes.

I don't run in gloves often because I'm so much warmer when I'm running than I am when I'm walking or standing outside. I generally dress as if it were 20 degrees warmer than it is, but it can be problematic for the first bit of a run. What I've found works best for me is running a short loop that comes back to my house in an easy to remove jacket, hat, and gloves that I can drop off at the door on my way past then continuing with the bulk of my run. In these cases any old gloves will do. When I do wear gloves for the full run, I wear a pair of thin, but insulated gloves from Heat that I got at Costco. They have silver in the fingers, so I can use my phone. It's more difficult than without the gloves, but it's not like I'm using my phone much mid run anyway.

My wife liked the idea of Eleanor if we had a girl, I never liked it, but luckily we had a boy, so we didn't have to cross that bridge.

At work, we named the old, decrepit copier Opal in an effort to humanize it and get people to treat the old girl with more love and patience.

I thought the god chose the person who had suffered more of the gods torture.

I don't think my head ever touches my headrest when I'm driving. Rarely, I'll lean back while sitting still, but that's the only time I'm ever even aware of it.

I drive a newer Tacoma. It looks like a little baby next to full-sized pickups, but it's a giant if I pull up next to an older Tacoma at a traffic light.

I think most students are copying/pasting instructions to GPT, not uploading documents.

The good news here is that all the signs in Cherry county still all only account for fifteen voters (thank goodness cattle can't vote), so a lot of Osborne signs in Omaha is still a good sign. My mom is very excited for him in Grand Island. There's some support out west.
