@XaoslordErie How I miss Vin Scully and John Madden. Most game announcers are not worth a dime. Miss having to learn the intricacies and stories of the game while listening to them. I had to mute Fox's broadcast of MLB games. #sports

#Innewsoftheabsurd Did California’s $20 fast food minimum wage immediately cost the state jobs and lead to massive price hikes when it went into effect? The study’s findings: Wages increased by 18%, employment numbers remained stable, and menu prices increased by only 3.7% — the equivalent of a 15-cent increase on a $4 burger. #economy #minimumwage #employment #California https://www.sfchronicle.com/personal-finance/article/fast-food-mininum-wage-increase-19836513.php

@Tattoomonkey29 @peeppeepcircus We have 6 kids that are just barely on their own. When COVID raged through I told my wife that we were lucky that our kids were not young when something like this happened. We now reflect on climate change and what young people will have to deal with much less with kids...let alone the politics...sigh

@peeppeepcircus La Niña and El Niño would be amplified (drought and rain). Monsoon months in the Arizona and southeastern CA areas would be major events. Have not seen any predictions on hurricanes coming but this is dependant on ocean temperatures and eastern shores of Pacific.

@peeppeepcircus @ucantstop_me I'm still on Twitter. Joined several Mastodon servers as well as Bluesky but it can be information overload at times trying to keep up....and thus selectively and limiting my follow numbers

@peeppeepcircus "The impacts particularly on Nordic Countries would likely be catastrophic, including major cooling in the region while surrounding regions warm".

@peeppeepcircus In other words...there is no turning back or reversing what has been done. Adapt to what we have or may have...
