@Jodi That’s lovely.

@Steve-Miller said in Mr. Jodi made the NYT (sort of) 😄:

What happened?

We're becoming the next Jackson Hole. People are being driven out of their homes because taxes increased astronomically because of the increase of home valuations. Young people can't live here or raise their families here. Businesses can't find workers because the rents are so far beyond the ability of working people to pay. In 1992, I paid $500/mo for a 3 BR, 2 bath duplex apartment here. Today, that unit would easily rent for $3,000/mo. We could easily rent out our current home for $5k/mo.--2,000 square feet. People are spending the winter living in uninsulated campers. The RV campgrounds are full. In winter! My doctor and my physical therapist have lost their staff because they moved away to more affordable states. Even the hot springs resort near Jodi had to close to day users--you have to stay in the hotel to swim there--because they can't find employees. This affects everyone. Except of course the ultra wealthy whose Montana trophy homes sit empty most of the year. And don't get me started on the corporate landlords who have snatched up what used to be affordable housing by paying full cash and outcompeting local buyers. Then turn that housing stock into AirBnBs, or jack up the rents to astronomical levels the current tenants cannot pay.

Late stage capitalism isn't pretty.

Oooh, I’ll see if we can rearrange over here, too!

Agreed, Daniel. She was singled out.

Apparently she is not pleased with the mockumentary.

I was pretty sure it would be really good; the combo of salmon and that sauce is a natural.

And I hadn't noticed the feta in the recipe for the sauce but I agree with leaving it out.

Love the pause…and the tweak!

@Jodi said in Trump calls Maine Governor Janet Mills a man in a mistake ridden call…:

Mills referred to Trump’s opponent, Democrat Kamala Harris, in a brief retort on X: “He better get used to recognizing women. He’s about to get beat by one.”. 😄😄😄

Love it!!

😀😀😀

@Jodi said in David Hicken (piano composer):

That balance piece is beautiful.

Also, very, very easy. And fun to play! 🙂

I bought Jacob LaVallee's complete set of PDFs with the intention of using them for sight reading practice, but I have so many things on my practice menu right now that I haven't started that yet.

You can see his scores here, he shows the first page as well.

Lololol 👍👍👍

It’s good to have pets you could eat in a pinch.

For Wtf as an element, I am thinking the atomic weight may correspond to the number of members we have.
The atomic number is harder to choose -- who should we consider "positive"?

That's nothing compared to what has happened in the (geologically recent) past there.
