    Forest Service Reorg - Progress or Politics

    The Forest Service isn't the TVA. FS pay has long been capped at a much lower rate, I believe $228,000 for 2026. https://openpayrolls.com/rank/highest-paid-employees/forest-service https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/02/03/2026-02189/january-2026-pay-schedules Should anyone make...

    Show me your Subaru

    This 94 legacy is up for grabs so make an offer! Low mileage for the vintage, runs and drives without issue. Don't expect any bells and whistles since they don't work anymore, at least not consistently. Has hauled an elk.

    Drought for the west

    Certainly not worth closing schools for. Sounds like Essex did alright. Winds materialized in some places, just no snow. Still got a chance the next couple days for something.

    Double whammy in the emails this afternoon. NRCS weekly water supply update. Summary: "The snow drought experienced this winter has caused well-below normal streamflow forecasts throughout the western U.S. The NRCS SNOTEL network reports the lowest levels of snowpack from many stations in at...

    Drought for the west

    Received an email this afternoon with the subject 'extremely anomalous March heat wave.' "Many locations in southern California and the Southwest are expected to set records for the earliest 100F readings, in some cases by several weeks. The heat is expected to stretch into much of the Great...

    State and federal co-management of national Forest?

    I think we are generally in agreement. With a desire for brevity, I think I lost some clarity in my initial post. I was trying to speak to the process for getting bids on sales as the loggers and mills have to pay their bills. The mills aren't desperate for logs and bids reflect that. The FS...

    State and federal co-management of national Forest?

    Thanks for posting this article. As this impacts where I work and recreate, I've been following this Shared Stewardship agreement since the announcement in June. I agree with your initial sentiments that this feels like a way for the state to 'own' (dictate) federal lands. One of the initial...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    The below article has a handful of anecdotes covering numerous products from various origins. I only recently became aware of how some of the tariffs are being implemented due to a bill a coworker received. The coworker purchased a garment from Europe in the fall, paid the full amount including...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    Thanks for catching my typo, appreciated! I'm sure there will be more. Unless states scale up requests for vital records, and they certainly could, I have a hard time envisioning processing times will decrease if requests increase. States/municipalities have been upfront that it would be a...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    Assuming the abilities of someone because of their skin color is a shitty move, certainly ignorant and elitist, stereotyping at best and racist at worst. I think it goes without saying that it is a pretty ludicrous statement to say that Black people don't know how to use the internet. To clear...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    I'm generally not a Schumer booster, however, I agree with him that it will "disenfranchise millions of American" which is deeply concerning to me. As previously discussed in this thread, logistical hurdles could prevent many current legal voters from voting in November. Excluding privacy...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    Well of course, I'm in full agreement here. Multiple sources to find original accounts, first person accounts, multiple video angles. Mostly curious if you had a bias free source you were willing to share.
