Thinking: Why is it we are given the illusion that we vote for big things. 🙄 If we could vote we could vote to get rid of military weapons', roe v wade, climate, voting reform etc. We only get to vote for people who vote for us on these big life issues and they suck. WE WANT TO VOTE FOR THE BIG THINGS. But alas we are slaves to a broken system.
it's 15 degrees warmer inside my house than outside. I'ma gonna go open all the windows, take some allergy meds, and gotobed.

9 AM, Saturday, September 8, 123 years ago this morning, the storm that would be known as #The1900Storm or the #GalvestonHurricane was a Category 4, just offshore and hours away from landfall. No one knew it was coming.
"Galvestonians had no idea of the monster lurking in the Gulf."
PS: this is the same boss who has had COVID at least twice, first time bad enough to be hospitalized, and is still not vaxxed.
*sigh* Gas Buddy just sent a price spike alert, and my boss thinks that if Biden would just open those pipelines that 'he closed' when he went into office the price of gas would be lower. Also blames him for inflation.
Thinks if TFG gets back in it'll be fixed.
*headdesk*
How to explain to someone that 1. Biden doesn't control gas prices and 2. the Saudis do and are driving the price up on purpose is not something I really want to do on a Thurday PM as he's walking out the door.

Nothing like going to a used bookstore.
I found a hardback copy of "Knitting Without Tears" by the great Elizabeth Zimmermann, and opened it to find that it not only was it originally a birthday present in 1973 (!!) it had notes and other patterns written into the endpapers and margins. TREASURE!! #cosoknitting
