Good morning, Bluesky.
A checklist:
A comfortable bed, doesn’t hurt my back
Food to fill me up
Warm clothes
Full house, rock and roll band
Pens that won’t run out of ink
Cool quiet/time to think
Six out of eight, not bad!

Everything is bad, but books are good. Get a book. Read the book. Cherish the book. Finish the book. Tell your friends about the book, and leave a review of the book. Hold the book close. Listen to what it tells you. Do as it commands. Place it on the dread altar and let it guide your every choice.

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide!
It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers.
It's the size of a folded business card. Print it, fold it, put it in your wallet!

RFK Jr just buried a big report on the link between alcohol and cancer. Luckily, @smencimer.bsky.social had written this a few years back:
The research linking alcohol to breast cancer is deadly solid: Alcohol, regardless of whether it’s in Everclear or a vintage Bordeaux, is carcinogenic.
Drinking may have given me cancer. The alcohol industry has worked hard to downplay it.
The science is clear that alcohol raises the risk of breast cancer, but boozemakers have downplayed the link.

When people scoff, “What’s next, hauling injured people on a bike?!” remind them:
Ambulances get stuck in traffic. Medics on bikes, with the right infrastructure, can cut through gridlock and start lifesaving care sooner, buying you precious minutes before the ambulance arrives.
