So are the Target workers going to be running away from the customers so they are always more than 10 feet away? Does this include the E-com shoppers? If I i’m trying to shop and steer clear of them, will they have to follow me?
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.
They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.
If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."
🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.

I am now a single issue voter. Do they or don’t they support making the Commemoration of the Halloween Blizzard 1991 a state wide holiday. It is a day full of traditions, like making sure the shovels are waxed and the snowblower works. What other traditional ways you would celebrate the new holiday?

I, though, have been adapted for occasional adventures on land as well as water
As for Hagland Captain, a brief bit of reading suggests it was retrofitted as a hybrid vessel.
I take this to mean it has batteries or something, not that it's been adapted for occasional adventures on land as well as water...

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.
After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

If you're trying to figure out what to do right now, my advice is to just pick a thing that you think might be useful in some way, however small, and do it. Doing a thing leads you to doing another, bigger thing, and prepares you for that next thing.
