Due to stuff with plot giving me PEM, I am late to the Interview with a Vampire show but holy fuck the first ep alone is a masterclass in how to share information quickly and immersively.

Vehicular cycling is not a bad strategy in places with no bike infrastructure, but a big reason why there's no bike infrastructure in so many places — even places that would be natural fits for it — is because Forester and his disciples opposed it for decades!

Davis, CA figured it out in the 1960s and there were tons of studies through the 1970s that proved how safe and popular its Dutch-style bike lane network was. Forester and his acolytes ignored the Davis example almost entirely.

States like Florida with inhumane, racist policies and laws targeting undocumented immigrants have already seen shortages of farm workers. In NC I shared lamb meat with Latino friends and neighbors and in return heard community news including what they got from migrant workers passing through.

BREAKING: The Lancet has published this article "conservatively" estimating that the death toll in the Gaza genocide could be 186,000 people or more. That's 8% of the population, obliterated. These are apocalyptic figures.

The best tweet of the day… no, the month. I really didn’t know that the neo-Nazis had these many sympathizers. If you are still wondering how millions of people perished in concentration & death camps, well, it starts with people like this guy. Yes, I’m saying it & meaning it quite literally.

Thanks everyone boosting this, about $1,400 has been raised from this Bluesky thread, and it cleared 40k and is headed toward the 50k goal. A shipping company is volunteering containers, and people are checking out what’s needed. We are helping directly.

Yeah. I was 3 days in hospital when I still lived in the US (pre ACA) and got a bill for over 50k. That was about 1.6 years of wages at the time.
