@ParkerTechGuy Over here in South Denver, I've always used a manual /reel mower. Today was the first time I've used a powered mower as an adult. And my 11 year old did most of the mowing! 👍
@ParkerTechGuy coupon expires June 30, but didn't say what year. Is it still worth $50 off for another 2 months?
I'm allowed to put weight on my broken leg now. Just registered for the marathon in October. #running

Talk about going full circle with segregation.
@PhoneBoy @isaac @itshans this is the first I've heard of this...I'm reading their book about how they create policies to encourage a calm and less stress and thus more productive working environment. They pay everyone per role, not as an individual, with pay at the 90th percentile of hat role's market pay range in San Francisco, regardless of where the employee lives and works.... And so on. This policy seems on line with those values, surprised employees are leaving.
I'll work here, but only if I can talk politics on company time.
Seems odd
Even though I broke my leg, I'm still hopeful and investing in #running. I was about 100 miles into my last pair when I fell. I saw a deal on them, blue and white.
They just got delivered. I don't really care about colors. But I did not expect the sparkles. They're all glittery. Glittery men's running shoes. Who knew!
Maybe they'll make my runs faster...or maybe just sparklier.

Interesting. Attempting to outlay the facts about what we have all seen.

Not Satire
Cornell Vaccine Mandate Only Applies to White Students
The Ivy League school offers a race-based exemption from its new mandatory flu shot, requiring only white students to get immunized before returning to the area.

As the dad of a multi racial family, I still retain my ability to think and may not fit your stereotype of what the dad of a multi racial family must think.
Replace "dad of a multi racial family" with another descriptor of me the statement remains true.
@radraccoon@noagendasocial.com A good friend here was hiding in Columbine High during the shooting on this date in 99. Colorado has a complex history with this date.
@timnolte I had run off and on occasionally.... In 2019 I didn't set a goal of wanting to ENJOY running. Started and then started going further with no speed goal.... Ended up running as far as 20.5 miles one Saturday.
I registered for a marathon, which was covid-canceled then broke my leg out for a run a month ago. Tough going. I want to still compete a marathon, later this year if possible, but my real goal is to enjoy running.
If I'm not enjoying it, I need to mix it up. Though I wouldn't suggest breaking your leg....this is a rough recovery.
@Mac_CZ yes! Great games
@Mac_CZ the worms as in Worms Armageddon? My son asks to play it all the time. 😂
