I have 4, could maybe justify a 5th but honestly that would take up too much space in my basement.

Michigan ends marijuana testing for some government job applicants (www.mlive.com)
 

Marijuana testing will remain in place for a large swath of government employees, including health workers, state police and Michigan Department of Corrections officers. But effective Oct. 1 eliminates the requirement for office staff and those applying for positions that don’t require driving, operation of heavy machinery or handling of hazardous materials.

The average age on the council now a ripe young age of 52. Something tells me these people don’t actually care to understand why younger generations are leaving.

I support this initiative but having decrepit lawmakers decide what to invest in for the future seems like a joke.

Looking for tire repair kit recommendations in c/bicycles@lemmy.ca
[–] rockprada@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

I usually outfit my bikes with a bag under the seat which includes all tools for changing a flat and a spare tube if there’s room. Topeak makes a few that come with the tools included but if you have the tools there are plenty of small bags to choose from. Also, don’t forget a frame mounted hand pump (if you’re not using CO2).

The future is with less cars and more public transit. The sooner Michigan realizes this the better of we’ll be.

Very impressive historical timeline of the Woodbridge neighborhood near Midtown and Corktown. Interesting to see the stages of growth, decline, and urban renewal from the neighborhood inception to modern day.
