I'm finding it hard to stay hopeful these days. I know there's very little I can control, and I try to focus on the things I can affect. It's hard though. I want to hope but if that's not allowed, I guess I'll go out instead

Periodic reminder that bikes are great.

So I guess we're the bad guys now.

Data don't lie, but it's extremely easy to use data to tell lies.

This is a nice piece about bikes, kind of. It's definitely about being human.

I'm listening to a history of the GOP and it just got to McCarthy. I learned of Sen. Margaret Chase smith's Declaration of Conscience. In it, she said: But I don't want to see the Republican Party ride to political victory on the Four Horsemen of Calumny – Fear, Ignorance, Bigotry, and Smear.

ME: Look man, you’re a great proctologist, I just think you’d be happier if you went to see this great clown Pagliacci, they say he’s a local professional in disguise BUTT DOCTOR:

I don't really understand shipping logistics. I placed an order from REI a couple days ago and it's coming in three (3) shipments. This might fit in some definition of "efficient" but it sure doesn't seem "good" to me.

I wish my ipad didn't have a camera bump.

Checking in with the Transportation Dept. lawyers...

This is just to say I have fired the bureaucrats throughout your government Even the ones that were probably keeping planes in the air Forgive me I am not very smart So efficiency Much savings

It may not be the most important effect of the cruel chaos that's being imposed on the federal govt. but my heart aches for damage that will be done to the natural places I love because the investment needed to care for them is considered some form of waste or fraud. What a small-minded worldview.

Your outie understands when someone is making a joke on the internet and doesn't embarrass themselves in people's replies

Been seeing this icon in linked twitter tweets in news stories, etc. What is it? What does it mean?

"Oh, will this horrible year never end?"

Just received a scam email from the Jam Petrochemical company. If the attachment (971765.pdf.7z) doesn't display a Parks and Rec gif telling me I "just got Jammed" after it encrypts my hard drive, what are they even doing?

Laser-like focus on the important issues. This is what leadership looks like.

looking back, AOL had it right. 30 hours of internet per month was the right amount.

Ok. I know this isn’t the point but dang, Patrick Stewart could have been a fun Doctor

Catching up on this Musk Oval Office appearance and, optics aside, it's like a brave explorer holding a press conference from the first peak in the Dunning-Kruger range. Just so much confident opining on stuff that even casual observers can spot as completely wrong.

My “This is not a quid pro quo” footnote is bringing up a lot of questions already answered by my footnote.

I didn't watch the game, but I gather that most people were hoping to see Tom Brady get sacked.
