Use natural fiber clothing only, no polyester, just cotton or whatever other natural fibers. Try to use less packaged food. But one of the major sources of microplastics is tire wear from vehicles, not sure what can be done about from a personal level other than not drive, which, I mean, who's really gonna do that?

Lead is still everywhere. Many electrical cords, Christmas decorations, paint remaining in homes from the 60s and before, even the 70s and possibly 80s. Many tools still sold today, screwdrivers, drill bits, etc. Many fresh produce foods have the potential and often do contain unsafe levels of lead, yes, stuff you buy at the grocery store. Some spices. Stained glass windows. Paints on cheap Chinese or elsewhere toys and other goods. People get lead poisoning today just from living their life not realizing normal stuff around them is dangerous. For real.

They are Yellow, YRC, Holland, and Reddaway depending on what region you're in. And there's plenty of overlap.

I was using Digg and Reddit both at the height of Digg. I had already mostly moved over to Reddit at the time of the migration but still was on Digg some. But I was among those that abandoned Digg then.

Ehh, I used to share this take but I think it's a bit over the top now. There are at least certain vehicle models from other brands that I feel are in the sphere with Toyota, notably the Ford F-150. Used, it tends to be similar or cheaper than the Tundra in price and mostly better features and performance and it gets better fuel economy than the vaunted Tacoma, let alone the Tundra, while being significantly bigger/roomier and I dare say, not much less reliable.

Eufloria Classic

Almost perfect "simple" rts. Nothing terribly complicated about how it works. Really the only thing that keeps me from saying it is perfect is the lack of ability to set rally points for units or select multiple planets to move all the seedlings(units) all at once.

Can be unreliable though based on what else is on the circuit. Had a portable ac that completely took my power line ethernet connection out whenever it ran.

The sports stuff is pretty empty. Team specific (my teams) are mostly dead still. So I've been on the corresponding SB Nation blogs more than I had for a long time. Otherwise, just here.

Liking this. Gonna be fun seeing this team grow and take shape over the next couple years.

As a Blazer fan who has thoroughly enjoyed watching Dame and thinks he's been a model star for the franchise and the league this needed to happen and I don't understand why it came to the point that Dame had to make the request. Ownership/management is so out of touch with actually building a winning team and has instead been stuck on trying to scrape together the best possible team every year to the detriment of the franchise actually being able to move forward.

A real rebuild was required when Lamarcus left and instead they half-assed it trying to produce a successful team immediately and could never get over that screw up.

Glad for the franchise and for Dame that someone came to their senses and will force the correct move for once.

Any ideas on what the difference is for the franchise signing Grant to potentially trade him vs not signing him at all? I really thought resigning Grant was the sign that everyone was in on running it back to at least start the season and look for potential trade deadline deals to pull in a star so I'm surprised this announcement comes out today.
