Personally I think this is a really interesting story. *Mostly* we've replaced coal with gas which is not exactly a lateral move and the uptick in wind and solar you see since 2020 is visible at the end.

Didn't realize this was a bluegrass song until Dolly did it.

"though I'm not a dude" is a confession. The casual (and extremely non specific) misogyny towards its theoretical mother in a previous post, but it's "not a dude". Okay? But it's never referred to being a woman or non binary, either. It doesn't seem to know trans people exist.

So I should laugh that men's testosterone levels have fallen in half in the last 50 years?

As Big Med has ruined our diet and pumped us full of pills?

I should laugh at that?

Because though I'm not a dude, I don't think that's funny.

Men matter.

And I don't like them being played

Note the lack of specificity, no references to any particular pills.

"My friends who took pills, for various reasons, all fared poorly with men.

Even my mother was too weak to attract a man or hold one accountable. She just couldn't think straight.

And I think you are pretending that young people aren't having trouble getting pregnant.

And I'm not MAHA. Liberal.

The number of posts is big, the number of followers is big. But in the last 30 posts, the only interaction it got was from retweets. (This quote tweet and thread notwithstanding)

The top of the account page for @wholegrains.bsky.social. it shows 1.7k followers and 10k posts

I've lived in Portland more or less all my life and I've never been in Eastern Oregon before this week. We drove through John Day and then through Malheur National Forest on our way to Idaho. What an absolutely astonishing and strange landscape and so empty.

This is Succor Creek in far-eastern Oregon. (You have to go to Idaho to get there). Spawn Prime talked us into schlepping her across Oregon so she could find thundereggs. We came home with roughly 2 gallons. Will update when we cut into them.

Ambivalent about sharing this because there's always a limited supply but New Cascadia did something I long believed impossible: flakey, crispy, well laminated **gluten free** pastry. This one is cherry amaretto. Portland truly is the best place for gluten free food and it's not even close.

A gluten free Danish with chocolate and powdered sugar. It's very appetizing.

On the Multnomah channel just south of Hadleys landing. Are these swifts? Sunlight to bright to see if this is even a good video. Please to not make fun. Thanking you.

Day 5: Coca-Cola with cherry. I went with what I thought was a more conventional choice. But this is * not * cherry coke. I don't understand how/why but I it undermines the entire project. If you can't put cherry in coke and get cherry coke... it tastes like fruit stripe gum. .7 peach mello yello

Day 4: Lime Seagram's Ginger Ale. It's okay. The lime is a nice complication of the ginger-y flavor. Kinda tastes like Hornitos Reposado. .65 peach mello yellos.

Day 3 Barqs Cream Soda with Orange. Oh my goodness. This tastes exactly like Dixie cups vanilla and orange sherbert. It even has the mouth feel of melted ice cream. This is delicious. 1.5x peach mello yello. Would be higher, but it's too rich for a beverage accompaniment to lunch.

Day 2 Cherry Dr. Pepper. Dr. Pepper is famously with 23 different flavors but it always tasted mostly of prune to me. Adding cherry seemed to rebalance away from the prune flavor. Dr P is still too sweet to me but the cherry didn't make it worse. .8 Mello Yellos

Day 1: The first soda combination and the yard stick of all subsequent flavors will be peach mello yello. I have rarely encountered mello yello outside the context of a future soda machine but it's supposed to be Coke's version of Mountain Dew. Okay. Sure.

Future soda button to show it's about to dispense peach mello yello.

One Q might be: Does age affect the opinions of male conservatives on this question? In other words, are older conservative men more (or less) likely to think women aren't discriminated against? Nope. The distribution across answers are super even.

Oh, my husband argues with me *every year* that this is anomalous. Meanwhile have "memories from this day" pics to prove it (2015, 2020, 2022). It's never *all* January, but there will be days like this almost every January.

Do not know who needs to hear this, but Cartopia on Hawthorne in #Portland has the absolute most coziest heated tent. Also. Best weather for Potato Champion
