I added a thing to Thingiverse for the first time. It's a bracket for a U-lock. It took me 3-4 hours. I've got one on my regular bike and my folding bike. So far, it works *much* better than the one Kryptonite ships.

Bracket for Kryptonite Combo U-Lock by samguyjones
This is a bracket that mounts on a standard bicycle water bottle holder which holds a Kryptonite Combo U-Lock. You insert the crossbar into the bracket, put the shackle in and lock the bike lock in pl...

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.
Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

I was at @birdhousebooks.bsky.social talking about #LessonsInMagicAndDisaster. They asked me to write a blurb for it, which I was really happy to do. @charliejane.bsky.social

Saw this bumper sticker while I was out walking. It occurred to me that maybe I'd found @weinberg.social 's car.

I tried this recipe for microwavable keto bread that my brother @bluefiddleguy.bsky.social suggested. It's pretty good. I tried it again whipping the egg whites to stiff peaks and folding everything else back in, which I admit was very much missing the point.

Almost done with #LessonsInMagicAndDisaster by @charliejane.bsky.social. By volume, the book is mostly good people doing good things. The hard parts, though, are so shockingly familiar and real that they land hard.

Lessons about bread:
It's pretty unhealthy.
But it's a little healthier if you make your own flatbread.
But it's a little less healthy (but yummy) if you shallow fry it.
And it's much less healthy if you flip your shallow-friend flatbread with your bare hands.

I keep wanting animated gifs of characters saying specific things.
Jeff Winger in Community: "*He kept not seeing it!*" (in reference to Cuomo's anus-resembling logo)
Ratthi in Murderbot "That's what he calls himself, so I'm just being respectful." (when calling Grok "Mechahitler")

My cholesterol is back to normal. It's puzzling that it was high, and it's puzzling it's gone down. Since my last test, I read Salt Fat Acid Heat, and I started doing shots with olive oil and sea salt.

I think there should be a "public option" for payment processors. Credit is increasingly important to how we pay. Currency is too important to abdicate to the private sector.

I've reached ten weeks of my hundred week goal to not gain weight. I'm really enjoying sauces, dips and cookies (not together). I'm still mostly avoiding bread.

Busy day. I just heard about the NY election, and I'm thrilled. I hope this is a start of an ass-kicking.

I just read through Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat. I only cooked very casually pre-lockdown, and I learned by searching for recipes and making them.
This book was really good for covering a lot of knowledge gaps like explaining emulsions, umami and other cooking terms I didn't really get before.

I read the Daughter's War, reread Blacktongue Thief and then reread Daughter's War back to back. His work is so good.
I don't talk about @buehlmeister.bsky.social enough. His novels BETWEEN TWO FIRES and THE LESSER DEAD are enormously enjoyable. If you digs audiobooks, his narration of THE LESSER DEAD is one of the best voice performances I've EVER heard. Christopher Buehlman is a righteous dude.

I found this fold super useful for cooking. Do this with parchment paper, wax paper or aluminum foil, and you cook things on it. It's tidier and if it's finger food, you might be able to serve it right out of the tray.
