Interesting to watch Musk spin his newly released correspondence with Epstein.
What he is not addressing is that he very much requested to visit and party with Epstein, while SpaceX gave a tour to Epstein in 2013.

one of my favorite e-bikes is on closeout sale: www.aventon.com/products/ave.... caveats: only one size available, and a bit heavy at ~62 lb. it's the most popular bike at the e-bike library, and has ~2k miles on it with no issues.

You’re not imagining things—the plums that were in your icebox are *completely gone*. Here’s why that’s bad news:
• They were *your plums*, that you were saving for breakfast. That makes this personal for you.
• They were *sweet*, so whoever ate them *enjoyed* them. That’s unforgivable.

Zohran just went out and fixed the Williamsburg Bridge bike entrance. Just did it. No faffing, no nonsense. Bam. Fixed.

🚨 IMPORTANT: *Official* avg. 2026 #ACA rate hikes will likely be lower than KFF's 114% estimate for three critical reasons...

this was @rorystolzenberg.bsky.social's final meeting as a planning commissioner. appropriately, it was a work session on the capital improvement program, an important thing that hardly anybody pays attention to.

thanks @bradjc.bsky.social! the e-bike library is an all-volunteer project with a minimal budget, and donations help us keep the fleet in good shape.

This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

this isn't a great bike. it probably isn't even a good bike. but it's UL certified and sold by a brick and mortar retailer (it's walmart's house brand), which is pretty good for $300. probably worth a look for a commuter on a tight budget: www.walmart.com/ip/Concord-L...

In NJ, in VA, in NYC, it's time to get to work.
There are no permanent majorities. There are only moments of time when parties can assemble a majority of voters around a set of ideas. You have to take that moment and run as fast as you can, before the next election breaks your stride.
