Seriously! The best counter to it is "what would you do with an extra $10,000 every year?" It's only when we get people imagining and creating visions that they start to break out of their preconceived notions.

I really wish we could have >4 year data visualization of this. Negative polarization really would be even more highlighted.

begging this website to see the Sun Times AI book list thing as a labor issue: - Sun Times has been laying off newsroom & editorial staff, including union members - the guy who created the piece says he had no idea where it would run (per the @404media.co story)

The Mineta Institute developed the Level of Traffic Stress classification that is the foundation of my cycling research. Their ongoing work to improve and update LTS has been derailed by this defunding. Tragic, regressive, unnecessary waste. www.transportation.gov/briefing-roo...

The Orioles are back and nest building. This female was trying to break off a piece to bring to the nest but lost her balance. Luckily she did not skip leg day, and didn’t have a problem. #Birds #Birding #WildlifePhotography #NaturePhotography #Photography #Animals #PhotographersUnited

Not sure many people have the privilege of going "downtown" to get a medical exam and this being the view of the walk. Having green-billed toucans as some of the neighbours is also amazing 💚 Mairiporã, SP, Brasil #fotografia #photography #nature #mountains #birds #birdwatching #home #brazil

This is what I have been thinking about in response to local municipalities banning youth from e-dirt bikes and scooters. Youth perspectives are not likely included in convos. If rider safety is the primary concern, provide helmets, and enforce speed limits on both e-riders and drivers.

Appreciate these expansive teak bench platforms on top of elevated tree planters in Kendall. Adapting something kludgy (awkward raised planters) into something useful (lounging space under shade) is pretty cool

Today’s anti-AI vent: I have a complicated issue related to setting up a new service that requires a company to contact a shipper and manually override an address. This is very clearly not something that an AI-facilitated chatbot can remotely handle, despite what [unnamed company] might think.

A large number of ICE field offices have X accounts where they post regular photo updates. Search long enough and you'll find some that aren't censored. For example, this photo is from a joint operation in Orlando, FL and was posted on March 11. Sharing for reasons.

confirming: at Bolts, our traffic from BlueSky last month was much higher than our traffic via X twelve or twenty-four months ago. And it's way way way higher than the cratered traffic we get from X now.

I especially like how this article on redlining emphasizes the importance of agency and calls out the idea of feeling like we found "the villain" that caused it all, case closed, rather than acknowledging and addressing individual involvement in systemic racism.
