I live on a 10 acre (4ha) #Farmstead on #WhidbeyIsland, USA where I keep #Goats and #Chickens.

I love to #Travel and learn #Languages. I'm learning how to be a #Foodie. I'm obsessed with #Music, especially weird #EDM, classical, and #BlackPink.

I proudly serve on the #SchoolBoard of the local school district and I'm passionate about #Equity and #SocialEmotionalLearning in public education.

I'm mostly here for #Cat pictures and #Puns.

I'm a #Reconstructionist Jew.

In theory, Democrats have a two-seat majority in the Senate.

In practice, someone has missed 82 of the Senate’s 82 votes this year and Democrats have had at least two more members of their caucus voting only 30 percent of the time. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/04/12/senate-votes-absences/?itid=ap_philipbump

Democrats have had a two-vote majority on only 30 percent of Senate votes

On average, Democratic senators have missed five of the Senate's 82 votes this year.

The Washington Post
The worst thing in the world is watching someone you deeply love go through a real dark night of the soul, a deep and harrowing existential crisis, and not knowing what to do or say to help them through it.
It’s interesting that Uber started doing a better job of attracting drivers than Lyft when instead of simply paying them higher bonuses, the CEO used the app as a driver and fixed a bunch driver-hostile features like not showing destinations before pickup.

What Happened When Uber’s CEO Started Driving for Uber

Dara Khosrowshahi and other executives realized drivers’ complaints were valid. They revamped the app, helping Uber attract workers and extend its lead on Lyft. Driver pay remains a sticking point.

The Wall Street Journal
I wonder -- and hear me out -- if banks would behave differently if the top people were all prosecuted and, if/when found guilty, had to serve prison time and provide restitution? Like, ya know, criminals.
