My daughter gets books from the imagination library. It's a wonderful service.

But did they count Tim's pokemon cards?

I think it is regulatory. However getting US politicians to do what's right is never trivial. It would take the legislative branch to change the regulations, while likely ignoring lobbyists within the automotive industry. It's fixable but it won't be fixed.

Rental companies, at least in America, have policies against using their vehicles to tow things.

In addition the truck in front has to be imported to the US and there's weird regulations about purchasing them so you can only buy used. As far as I know you can't import a new model. If a car is newer than 25 years old it can not be imported unless it meets the requirements of US Office of Vehicle Safety Compliance.

Today I learned about the official monster raving loony party. That's amazing

She's pulling herself up and standing but not without support yet, but holy cow she's really moving. Lol.

My 9 month old daughter is really making great progress in her motor skills and she is super curious about the world, and is laughing and smiling a lot. The mere thought of her brings me an overwhelming amount of joy.

A lot of woodworking, a lot of fishing, and a lot of hanging out with family. It would be glorious.

This is exactly how I feel. Reddit is so full of bots, spam, and ads that it's really only good for checking a few niche subreddits. I can browse Lemmy at random and be pretty entertained.

It seems like they're saying that it markets guns, not the typical argument that it makes kids violent. This argument seems less crazy to me.
