It's not nice to tease about this. These are new york bananas. This is as good as fruit gets on the east coast. If you badmouth the green bananas, six columnists will threaten your life on the front page of a newspaper no one reads anymore. Be nice. It's the best they can do out there.

TONIGHT: we are in the home stretch for 2026 primaries, y’all. Today I’m mostly watching Michigan. A dramatic US Senate race is dominating headlines, but I’m looking at State House/Senate turnout and what it tells us about chamber flips in November.

Finally got around to reading @climatecabineteducation.org's "Taming Data Center Turmoil" report that came out last month. This is one of, if not the, clearest and most practical guides to state and local policymaking around data center energy use.

Big mistake: there is too much fire already. Why add a new layer of fire?

the biggest and best movie of the year revolves around the perils and horrors that come with sacrificing a trans life in the name of a short term victory
i started this train of thought as a joke but now i do think there's something to the idea that the way to sell the green revolution to the US public is that we're being denied Good Deals on cheap chinese cars and solar panels and there's nothing more unamerican than saying we can't have a good deal

@amybrown.xyz i just narrowly prevented my kid from stomping a yellowjacket nest by shouting "BEES!" and yanking her six inches in the air by the arm.
“What happens in 5, 10, 12 years or whatever, if this is not viable anymore? How is our community not stuck with a bunch of buildings that maybe we can’t use for anything else? We’re trying to address that.”
Dan Gearino@dangearino.bsky.social · 4d agoWhat would you do if the country's largest data center and largest gas fired power plant were being built in your town?

If you have never experienced the people mover, can you really say that you've lived at all?
David Weiskopf believes in you@dave.bzky.team · 5d agoBlucifer is the best piece of public art in America, and the Gateway Arch people mover is the best public transit.

Overnight, a masked bandit broke into our kitchen. Armed with opposable thumbs, he proceeded to sample everything on offer. I’d just visited the farmers market, so the menu was extensive. I can now share a highly specific peer-reviewed list of what this particular raider did & did not enjoy. 🧵
