I think Citadel Hill would install some speed cameras. I’m curious if federal jurisdiction would allow them to. Some people treat the loop as a mini-autobahn. Or maybe we could get some delivery-style robots that circle repeatedly as pace-cars.
Just finished this episode of Humans this morning and managed to grab the last copy of Maya’s book at a local, independent bookstore.
I’m so grateful for this wonderful, funny, motivational conversation with @hankgreen.bsky.social on his Humans podcast. Listen to the full episode here: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/m...
I can't stress enough the importance of making shitty things. Shitty writing. Shitty art. Shitty paintings. Shitty films. Shitty songs. Shitty sculptures. Shitty is beautiful, because it's human. There's no glory without shitty. Get out there and shit things up.

post a meme made by you Obviously not an original format, but I made this specific version.
post a meme made by you (Yes, I'm really the guy responsible for this one.)
If you put together the season posters for Reacher they tell the story of a large man who can't remember where he put his keys.
out it goes: my long post about Rachel Hope Cleves's claim that Tillie Walden plagiarised her book. It's long because Cleves's claim is much, much more bizarre than it looked on first reading. I'm not going to bury the lede here. Cleves's claim does not hold up. buttondown.com/thene/archiv...
i am working on a very, very long blog post that could really have fit into a skeet: When someone posts that "this website/journal article/etc proves my dramatic claim!!!" and then does not link to the website, journal article, etc, it is because it does not in fact prove their dramatic claim.

Fundamentally, Piketty argues that the cheapest way to stop people from building a guillotine on your lawn is to build hospitals and schools; this is cheaper than paying for guards and prisons to lock up would-be guillotine builders. 43/

More anecdotal info, but Sunday parking downtown seems trickier. Would be glad to see paid parking everyday.
Anecdotal, but I found it easier to find parking when I was downtown this Saturday. Big fan of paid! I was a bit surprised they left the 2-hr spots on Queen between Spring Garden & Morris as M-F, rather than extending to M-Sat. It's right in the middle of Zone C. Maybe @lecwhite.bsky.social knows?
Does anyone have a photo of a child in front of the hood of an SUV or pick-up that they'd be OK for me to use in a @visionzerokh.bsky.social blog post going out first thing tomorrow? If so, please share with preferred image credit text! Preferably with the child facing the car not the camera! TIA!
I came across this a while back and ended up saving it because it was so accurate and depressing
This is pretty god damn bleak. Amnesty has withstood pressure from murderous dictators and genocidal regimes and yet they caved to lawfare from JK Rowling. This effectively means no domestic UK organization can criticize Rowling or GC orgs without risk of being destroyed by endless lawfare.
I used to do some work on the ethical use of satellite and drone imagery for aid and disaster response, and it is genuinely hard to express in words what a dangerous, stupid thing Google is doing by making it easy to use GenAI to create faked satellite imagery:
How to plant a nuclear plant in Iran
The question is: what on earth is Google doing?
