When I was a kid, the scientific consensus was, if we don’t do X to change this situation, then Y will happen. The sceptical argument was “no, it will not.” Now, Y is happening everywhere, just as predicted, and the sceptical argument is what? Look away? Pretend it’s not happening?

I made a lot of these kinds of maps at my old job, it's so important to convey the depth and breadth of destruction in a way that the average non-expert can wrap their mind around. These are well done. Slava Ukraini.

Now, driving taxis looks terrible in Taxi Driver, but a lot of fun in D.C. Cab, so it could be all about location.

The overall numbers don't matter. What matters is that this is the ONLY issue for enough potential Democratic voters to swing the race. And Biden's team, which has been doing this since the dawn of time and is allergic to accepting that there are things it doesn't get, really needs to get it. x

It's me here to complain about L'Enfant Plaza again: if the government is going to make us go into the office they had better be pouring money into metro infrastructure improvements because this rush hour single platform single tracking bullshit is for the birds.

I have a dentist appointment tomorrow morning too! I don't know if this will help you at all but what helps me is focusing on breathing slowly and evenly through my nose. Doing this, I haven't bit a dentist in years.

Hundreds of Beavers is such a trip. Hand-drawn animation! Practical effects! Vaudevillian slapstick! Sight gags at a ZAZ-like pace! Almost no dialogue at all! And yes, hundreds of beavers!
