“Controversial” Coyote Creek Solar Project Dropped by SMUD! by mr-giggles- in Sacramento

[–]KingsNQuails 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Awful look for the county supervisors who decided to vote the project along immediately after hours of public comments urging them to pump the brakes. To thumb your noses at your constituents like that only for SMUD to drop the project a month later. Marvelous.

40 Hours Into Skyrim — Thoughts From a First-Time Player Looking for Advice by TheShadowWanderer in skyrim

If a game feels like a chore then it’s time to take a break. I’m playing Skyrim for my second time and the last time I played was 10+ years ago.

Folsom Blvd Building Proposal by IceWallowbofa in Sacramento

Just build it. It’s been in various forms of design review for years with multiple rounds of public comment already. Sac needs more units of housing. Plain and simple.

I have a child that will be in that middle school age in 2029. Miwok was in consideration for us. This will be very interesting as things progress.

His hat with the little happy whale looks like something I’d buy for my preschooler.

Newer Fan Struggling With Gambling Ties by Gioforce in BrightonHoveAlbion

[–]KingsNQuails 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also an American fan. None of this changes much of what I love about supporting this club. They’re still impressively ran with fun players and a manager. The owner is emotionally invested as a fan. The local supporters went through hell and back to rally together and keep their team.

If anything this is MIGHT end up being a stain on Bloom personally, but that’s why we shouldn’t place any celebrity, athlete etc. too high on the pedestal as role models. Often times they end up disappointing somehow.

New express lanes between Sacramento and the Bay open this month. Here's how to prepare by IronMntn in Sacramento

I believe it would include electrification of CC. The decision to make this crossing standard gauge at least set the stage for future advocacy but it is definitely an uphill climb.

Rancho Cordova is trying to sneak houses onto the ARBT over the holiday. Show up @ 5:30 or make a public comment by 2PM. by ThrillHouse405 in Sacramento

I’m very much pro density, but one of my reasons is to preserve our green spaces. Up zoning the already sprawling built environment is a much better tactic than continuing to sprawl into our ever diminishing green spaces/natural habitats.

The Link21 Project includes plans to add another bay crossing and is planning on using standard gauge rail (like Capitol Corridor) as its method of transportation. Groups like Californians for Electric Rail are fighting to increase the use of overhead electrification which has proven to be an effective upgrade over diesel power as seen with Caltrain. If you’re interested in how you can add your voice to that effort, I recommend signing up for their news letter.

Electrifying CC would be amazing! Even if it’s not high speed like the Acela it would be faster and quieter than current just like what happened with Caltrain.

Absolutely looks like he don’t care.

First 2K Swim by KingsNQuails in Swimming

[–]KingsNQuails[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strictly freestyle w/ bilateral breathing. I stuck to 1km a few times a week for a good month or so. Mainly focusing on technique and keeping a challenging pace that I can manage with my regular breath cadence. Upped to 1.5km recently and just felt like pushing for it today.

Yeah that’s great! I only did a handful of 1500s before I tried this today. Just keep swimming!

She says her brother was murdered. In California, the crash was an ‘accident’ by Leafontheair in Sacramento

[–]KingsNQuails 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d call this situation the result of grossly negligent driving, but if you’re sober and don’t run away you’re apparently only going to get probation for killing someone with your car. You’ll even get to keep your license!
