Cool head, heated heart
I *kinda* get where he’s coming from, but something about the ask rubs me the wrong way.

Plus, I feel like a lot of these influencers already exist. They may not all necessarily be “gym bros”, but I'm seeing more and more leftist content pop up from straight [black] men which is cool.

Initiatives like tolls and congestion pricing work because they make driving less convenient, so higher-capacity alternatives appear more attractive in comparison.

Even encouraging carpooling goes a long way; “slugging” is pretty common in Northern VA with the way their tolls are set up.

Sweetgreen's been expensive as long as I can remember.

They were selling $20 salads in the same era where Chipotle had a 50% chance of not charging you for double chicken.

I finally took some time out last week to purge a handful of old subscriptions.

Did the math and realized I was throwing away a couple grand yearly on stuff I wasn't even using!

Glad I could export my notebooks with *thousands* of notes into Joplin, but considering this all used to be free...

The greed of these tech companies is absurd.

Speaking of games, this is why I wasn’t really feeling HBO’s TLOU S2.

The game is great, they hold back on certain details to give you an empathy gut punch later on. In the show, they explain every background detail within the first couple of episodes and heavily tone down Ellie’s character.
