I support the winner of the Michigan Democratic primary as the future senator from Michigan.

a good time to buy an e-bike is when the manufacturer releases a new model and the previous generation goes on clearance. most models don't change much from year to year, and unlike buying something used, you still get a warranty. a few good clearance sales going on at the moment: 🧵

Every time I across one of these I watch the entire thing three times in a row

Valley Link thinks they can destroy our beautiful rural places with massive transmission towers. It’s time to show them what a community looks like when we stand our ground. The people united shall never be defeated. Share this to protect what matters! #BlockValleyLink

somehow he's both not paying attention to and also directly causing most of the nation's problems

very important to note that the vast majority of Americans, including a large share of the president’s own voters, think he is focused too much on immigration, Iran, and enriching himself and not enough on kitchen table issues morrispredictive.com/assets/surve...

this is why i'm not voting for perriello in va-05

Look I don’t mind a bit of Glonzo on data centers but I want to make one thing clear: anyone campaigning against transmission is a climate denialist and/or a wrecker.

Hypothesis: The "it's not X, it's Y" pattern that LLMs are so fond of outputting can be traced back to a single, very prevalent phrase in the training data:

Yesterday, we receovered another e-bike using airtags. The airtags were not hidden; the thief just didn't look. You don't necessarily have to be fancy. Just buy airtags, put them on your bike. (You may notice this is a weekly refrain. That's because AirTags recover > 1 bike a week.) amzn.to/3RkPtTG

This note gets it just right. You apologise for eating the plums, express sympathy for their owner and explain your motivation for eating them. Just one note: consider offering to replace the plums. This small gesture could do a lot to smooth things over

ludwig (2024) dares to ask the question of what would happen if one of the better taskmaster contestants became a police officer overnight

It’s important to build enough housing to bring the market price down, not just take some units off the market. Why? The market price is the price anyone can reliably get. No lotteries, knowing the right person, lucking into a cheap rent-controlled unit a decade ago.

meanwhile i've been told that fire and rescue will veto literally any speed bumps/humps/tables here

For those who haven’t been, Somerville’s distinguishing tactic is widespread speed humps and other vertical deflection. And not just on local streets.

I’m saddened to announce the passing of my work colleague, The Zodiac Killer. While we were often on opposing sides of the business, I always enjoyed his silly little scavenger hunts.

you know the book is going to be interesting when the author's blurb looks like this

buy airtags. put them on your bike. don't bother with android tags. the android find my equivalent is useless. have a friend with an iPhone add your tags. don't think hard about it. buy a 4 pack and hide them all over. amzn.to/4vgNIop

bro I need this “no taxes on [very broad group of people]” thing to be revealed for the honeypot that I so desperately hope it is, they got fuckin’ Abdul El-Sayed on it now

no activity is fun when it feels like 105° out, but e-biking in the heat isn't quite as bad as i thought. better than getting into a hot car that's been baking in the sun all day, anyway.

Natalie Oschrin, Charlottesville City Council@nat4cville.bsky.social · last mo.

And yes, even in this heat I still biked there! My range of temps while biking is now literally 9-99 degrees 🚲 🚲 🚲

In the concept art this arch was supposed to be a perfect miniature of Trump's planned 250 ft (76m) tall arch. The rushed and limited planning time led to this Home Depot scrap plywood wrapped in vinyl debacle.

it really just needs a good steering wheel that doesn't fly off your hand while you're driving

Ed@ed3d.net · last mo.

there are no basic features missing from this truck-ass truck. it's got wheels, cruise, and an AC (with knobs). put in your own iphone mount; there'll be attachment specs so you can design and print your own. which I am going to; I reserved and nothing has made me less excited for it.
