I’ve always wanted enough space to have a medium sized greenhouse.

I had the thought the other day that it would be kind of interesting to open part of the space to locals to drop off their plants for day care. Going on a trip? Just swing by and put the plant in the spots for the right watering schedule and pick it up when you come back.

It would also have a section for plant swaps, for plants people forgot that others could just take home.

Much smaller? Probably not.

I like the accenting colors they started doing, but yeah the hard edges are a bit boring

I wouldn’t complain if they started making Outbacks smaller, like 90s size

Saw a sign at a country pumpkin patch that referred to the GOP as “guardians of pedophiles”

Ohio is voting on an amendment related to voting, and the summary on the ballot is basically “people need to show ID in order to vote”.

I didn’t read up on the amendment before I cast my vote, but upon reading the ballot my first thought was “we already do this… so what is the purpose of this bill”. It went on to explain some other rules for what counts as identification and what not, and I just voted “no” to the amendment.

Later I had a conversation with my wife about it, and the general idea was:

• We already show ID in order to vote
• If we already show ID to vote, then an amendment to require it doesn’t make it required, but changes what is required.
• If it changes what is required, then most likely it is to make it harder for people to vote, and to give an excuse to remove valid votes from the registered voters.
• If the goal is to be able to just “pick who is valid and who isn’t” then it is just an legal platform to remove the votes the people in power don’t want to have counted
