Order muppet in Pittsburgh. I play in a bunch of bands and I ride a bike around. Mostly skeets about music, Pgh, urbanism, lefty stuff, bad jokes, nice things I see, and my cat
great, I can already tell that my brain is going to repeat "the moon has clearly seen better days" every time I look up at it for at least the next year
NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman on rockets crashing into the moon: "It's not a big deal right now. The moon has clearly seen better days."
one of my favorite arto quotes about his early no-wave/DNA days was (paraphrasing), "every new punk release was bigger and louder and sonically brasher than the last, so I thought, 'why not make the biggest, loudest, brashest thing possible?'. Turns out that's not what most punk fans wanted!"
Without approximating in any known galaxy a top forty single in any country,Arto Lindsay has quietly followed the punk ethos longer and with more satisfactions than many of his peers. humanizingthevacuum.wordpress.com/2021/11/01/w...

Not quite an insult, but a bully in middle school told me "I'm gonna hit you so hard you'll need your glasses for to take a shower" [sic]. I thought he was an idiot at the time, but I'm still thinking about his threat 30 years later so I guess he won
What's an insult you'll never forget?
PennDOT timing update for all my Blast Buddies out there: Demolition now scheduled to take place between 6:00PM and 9:00PM! PennDOT will send out an additional update with a 30 minute warning. So if you were refreshing the livestream, you can relax until 6:00PM.
It's Demolition Day! KDKA-TV will be carrying the demolition of the Commercial St. Bridge live on air and online. We're waiting to hear from PennDOT about the official blast time -- right now the window is 1:00PM to 9:00PM. I am a little giddy with excitement for this. Love a (planned) explosion!
fingers crossed they hit up pittsburgh on the next tour
Specifically interested in talking to people who worked on Summer Lee's 2022 campaign.
If you’ve ever worked or interacted with Dan Moraff, I’d like to chat for a story. Message marisakabas.04 on Signal.
This is an underrated perk of biking as transportation - you're forced to learn where to go because you can't check directions easily as you ride, but you're also forced to learn 4-5 other ways to get there in case the way you'd go in a car (or get there with google) isn't really safe for bikes
I actually think this is kinda fucked up. I will often navigate places and deliberately not use GPS on the way home so I learn where I am. It's crazy how many smart, creative people I know have zero sense of wayfinding.

The only good social media is about to get enshittified. Sadly, used to the pattern by now. variety.com/2026/digital...
EXTREME long shot: does anyone here know the Pittsburgh person who owns a Nissan Figaro???
In a fun note, Mike Elk used to email me off the clock to tell me that his girlfriend asking him to pay for his half of the abortion was the same as sexual assault, and telling me that he liked to "break evil women" like me. This was because I asked him to stop yelling at women at work.
I think about this a lot with regards to concert ticket pricing for DIY musicians

I'm all fired up after being yelled at while I was biking so here's a rant about it:
