Yes 'cers

Punk Puppies Protesting against Petulant Politicians and their Prejudiced Puppets

It's happening on the court and in the streets in Indianapolis tonight.

Wheel World hooked up to a bike trainer would be like Zwift but fun. Also that bike belongs in this gallery of drawn-from-memory bicycles: www.gianlucagimini.it/portfolio-it...

Borders are the technical debt of history

My explanation for Elon's turn is that he heard that GWAR has been opening their shows by cutting off his head and spraying the cheering crowd with his blood. That would be soul-crushing to someone who grew up watching Beavis and Butt-Head.

Get on it Red Gold! (I don't think any of their brands actually sell soup—too hard to compete with the Campbell's and Progresso duopoly?)

They call it a boat flag, but I say it’s a bike flag! Perfect size and design @flagsforgood.com Mounted to an upside-down mudguard (Zéfal) off my gravel bike with zip ties and some gaffer’s tape.

Indianapolis has the best city flag, right? I guess Chicago is okay too. In any case you should swing by the new @flagsforgood.com shop near Fountain Square and get an improved version for pride month! Their Indy flag museum is very cool too!

Spark on the Circle is back in Indianapolis! Such a great use of the space. Throw on some Pacers gear and come hang out!

When asked about the latest GDP projections, economic advisor Kevin Hassett channeled Seneca: "The happiest person, the most untroubled possessor of himself, is the one who awaits the morrow without anxiety," he said with a disconcerting grin.

What’s all this about the pope appointing judges?

Given that both the creation of the bullshit (LLM prompt→spew) and the dissemination of it (social media) are exponential, we may be looking at something more like tetration here.

While real scientists are screaming out warnings, the stupidest people in the country are using AI to make up policy reports. Why is this even a fight again? www.notus.org/health-scien...

Last moth the Vision Zero tool† got hundreds of reports from residents of spots around Indianapolis where traffic safety could be improved; you probably know a few yourself. George's memo shows how Indy is missing out on funding opportunities to help address these. † mirrorindy.org/vision-zero-...

A bit disappointed they didn't keep some of the old stone benches and markers, at least not that I saw. Took this in 2023. There is a new stub path, concrete pad, and benches with a bit of a view (the hole is on top of a hill with a steep cliff) where the 18th hole was.

You have opinions; may as well put them somewhere where they may be heard for more than likes. You may even learn something about yourself and your own relationship with your community.

Close the bike lane for construction then shrug “eh they can cross the street and use the sidewalk I guess.” 🧵
