It’s real.

And even if you do start the new job, most jobs have a probationary period around ninety days where they can just let you go for no reason at all.

Just to add more detail, for hotels I’m familiar with the general manager makes $150-200k or more while front desk and housekeeping staff make about $12/hr.

Counterpoint, business owners will always charge what the market will support. If people will book $1000/night rooms, they’ll charge that whether they’re paying their workers $10/hr or $30/hr.

I agree that we’re in the “wait and see” phase with regards to what features make it into the production line. I hadn’t really considered those other limitations on towing, but it’s also not something I need to do on a regular basis currently.

Telo supposedly will have a 1600 pound payload capacity and a 6600 pound towing capacity. They also advertise being able to fit a full 8x4 sheet of plywood with the tailgate up. It really looks like the truck I would want to buy if I ever decide to start a landscaping business. It’s also significantly more expensive than slate or a maverick.

Source since I couldn’t find payload or towing capacity on their site: https://electrek.co/2025/03/06/hands-on-and-first-ride-in-telos-tiny-electric-truck-thats-as-big-as-a-mini/

You’re in luck (maybe?): Telo truck, Slate truck, or even the newer Ford Maverick. The first two aren’t in production yet, but Mavericks look like a great size.

And I’m over here having to hand water my newer natives because of a 100+ F (almost 40 C) heat wave.

Can’t wait for my boss to come up with half a working solution with this and expect me to fix/finish it!

I recommend against pruning at this stage. I also recommend against rocks. Instead, just do a big perennial bed, or even just make your whole lawn perennials. This is more or less realistic depending on the size, of course. The two main issues with rocks are that they accumulate heat which is then hard on plants and uncomfortable for us, and that they are big and heavy and next to impossible to get rid of if you ever decide you don’t like them.

A native ground cover is another good option. Depending on your area that could mean a native grass mix, native sedges, or something like frogfruit. In most cases your first step will be to solarize the area to kill the existing grass and weed seeds.

Yep that’s exactly who I was thinking of, couldn’t think of the name though.

And the companies already harmed by the tariffs, having to pay because their inventory happened to arrive on one of the days tariffs were on. Now they’ve paid, but competitors that had their inventory arrive a week earlier or later didn’t have to pay.

Wax your chain, then cleaning is just gently blowing away little wax chips. For OP, yes this a serious recommendation. Waxing has come a long way in the past few years. It’s kind of a chore, but really not that bad. Much less hassle than all the headache described in that video.

I’m happy to see the article has such a strong focus on using native seeds.

Butterflies and bees are great, but I love seeing all the other pollenators that I rarely recognize. Native bees, beetles, and even some tiny (non stinging) wasps. I especially love that no matter what part of nature you’re most interested in attracting/observing, native plants are almost always a good place to start.

“Write a short article about this girl that made a solar blanket. The tone should be light and uplifting. Here are some key points to include:…”

I just assume anyone that says they’re a centrist is a republican that doesn’t want to admit to it.

“Well yeah it says that but it’d be pretty inconvenient, so…”

I appreciate articles that are a mile long about such simple topics. If your article needs a table of contents, it better be some Atlantic level journalism.

I’ll second this. The easiest way to get it to grow is to just set the pad on top of the soil. It will naturally root from the portion touching the ground and eventually sprout some new growth.
