I just gave Robert E. Lee and Me: A Southerner's Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause by @tyseidule.bsky.social a rare 5 star review. It was excellent.

As we are wrapping 2024, it’s good to remember car crashes are still one of the leading causes of death of young people and climate change can’t be addressed without modifying our behaviors.
Nevertheless seeing all the amazing people around on here and IRL gives me hope. Happy New Year! 🎈🎆

Ban all personal ownership of non-work oriented vehicles. Modern Light Duty Trucks are more dangerous, harmful, and wasteful than ever before. They are a blight on our roads and our neighborhoods.
The world is laughing at you.
