The latest argument against a local hotel project is that napkins and bread baskets will fly off en masse from the rooftop restaurant, raining down on the hapless drivers endlessly seeking that one free public parking spot right in front of their destination. #Petaluma #CriticalThinking

The linked Guardian article itself links to an article in The Independent, because of course The Guardian aren't going to report on that in their actual News section…

Lol just heard the NPR story about the DOGE guy who lost his job when he said he was surprised at how hard it was to find inefficiencies in the federal govt because he came from Silicon Valley where companies always have lots of people sitting around doing nothing

It's finally happening. An air-rail partnership between JetBlue and Brightline is coming. JetBlue customers will be able to book Brightline tickets directly on jetblue.com as part of a combined itinerary. It also unlocks irops options to rebook passengers (think rebooking to MCO instead of FLL).

It took us so long to have the right to love who we love in public, and we’ve embraced this change so beautifully that some of the younger kids now don’t understand how recent it is. It all feels so fragile now. My heart breaks for Jonathan and Tristan.

Fucking hell. RIP Jonathan Joss, voice of John Redcorn in King of the Hill. Killed last night in a confrontation with a homophobe at the Texas home he and his husband had been driven from by bigots. I'm struggling with the loss of this queer elder as we start Pride month. WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED.

Convention season is about to start, just as a new variant of COVID is spreading that people describe as like swallowing razor blades. Socials are going to be full of con pictures. Are we going to see any masks in them? I want to believe y'all care.
