I take a medicine that’s shipped to me in cold packs, so I have a ton of cold gel packs in my freezer. Anyone know how or where to donate them? I know I can dispose of them in various ways but I’d rather get them to people who can use them if possible.

My latest for @frommers.com offers advice on what to do if you're flying in coming weeks. Especially if the government shutdown--now officially the longest in US history--continues into Thanksgiving. Can you say shitshow? (Webster's says two words but I prefer one.)

Tarantula/spider/pet people out there:

I'm considering using a plastic shoebox with airholes punched in the sides as a grow-out tank for my Lasiodora parahybana (Salmon Pink Birdeater) as it's a little bigger than palm-size. Is that a valid option or am I missing something bad about it. Thanks! 🕷️🐍

Friends, Tuesday is Election Day in NYC, and it's time to VOTE FOR @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! Here's a thread of why I'm voting for him, along with photos I've taken over the past few months.

FIRST, the dude cares. He loves this city and he loves us. And care > punishment, baby.
Got my color film from this rally developed! Here's @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social doing that rally thing.

Nikon FE2, Nikon Nikkor 105mm f2.5 (I think), Kodak Gold 200.

I have rarely asked anything of my followers but I ask that they amplify this post.

Bluesky reinstate @spacelawshitpost.me
So @spacelawshitpost.me aka Link got banned. I just got text message.

So yeah. We stop saying things are accidents now?

Link of all people?

Apparently Jay said something to him before taking him down. He didn’t even get a chance to reply.

He sent this image.

This is sad.

So that leads to a general question - anyone want to sit for some black and white film portraits here in PVD, it is so far out of my comfort zone it feels like a good thing to explore creatively.

Will be starting (maybe stopping) with random inanimate objects. Microscopes/bikes/stuff🤷‍♂️

Every once in a while I have to explain to our international students how their university insurance works, and they stare at me terrified like I'm having a stroke, because words coming out of my mouth make no sense to a normal person.
Every once in a while I tell people from other countries about how the health insurance system works in the US and they are aghast. Yesterday a guy straight up didn’t believe me when I said people can die because of not being able to afford medicine. He was sure I meant in the distant past.

Live your life in such a way that you never need to confess to unsafe elevation to your children, your attorney, your God, or USCPSC.
They are confessing to unsafe elevation in the replies. What have we done.
