Note that this is an Opinion piece (should titled that way).
Inside you find all the good stuff - facts fabricated from thin air, strawman arguments, and the same tired refrain of ‘this complex issue is easy to solve if only there were less regulations.’

Your username is so apt in this case, lol. That's a good idea, great goal for '25!

I also happened to finish "Ducks: Two Years in the Oil Sands" by @katebeaton.bsky.social this morning (in one sitting!) and I was struck by how... complicated her experiences were and what future Martian homesteaders would have in store for them if this occurs so close to home.

I'm thinking of buying a brighter headlamp to compete with the washout of light so I can still see the trail when it happens.
The electric cars are an interesting problem - I'm generally not directly on the road but they do they do tend to creep up and surprise me at road crossings a lot.

Oof, not fun. I enjoy running in the rain and every year I forget about nipple chafing for a few outings then I remember why I have anti chafe sticks all over the house.
