was much more focused on my 35mm camera today (went through 2.5 rolls of film, late afternoon light was otherwordly) but remembered to get a few nice shots on my phone too

One of the most beautiful snowy days I can recall since I moved to the Northeast 8 yrs ago. Massive mood-lifter. I adore snow.

My nuclear hot take is that every car should have an interlock device, even with no history of DUI. No concerns about disparate applications or "wealth extraction".
The California ACLU is staunchly opposed to the ignition interlock device program and is a big reason that it has not been expanded. Despite the fact that California heavily subsidizes the cost for low-income drunk drivers, the ACLU says that the program is a form of "racialized wealth extraction."

oh my god they pulled a fast one on me—they’re ending my NY health insurance JANUARY 1 now, not JULY. I renewed ASAP on Nov 15, but 3 days later they changed my eligibility status (falsely! I don’t earn more than $39k) OFC they erased the old messages from the website-only inbox

Minus big-bucks lifelines, some U.S. transit systems are facing disaster.
🚇 🚍
But the MTA is *adding* subway and bus service, not cutting it — and has dodged layoffs.

“This is a remarkable turnaround just from a few years ago.”

As U.S. Transit Takes a Dive, MTA Enjoys a Rarity: More Service and Stable Cash Flow
San Francisco and Philly are limping along. Yet in New York, North America’s largest mass transportation authority finds itself running more trains and buses, and limiting fare hikes.

I simply want to look at the menu on your website — I do NOT want to create an account and begin an online order just to see what your restaurant serves!!!!

The X-Files is genuinely a timelessly good show, because when not focusing on overarching conspiracy plot, they would really just focus on a single concept and quite crucially, it would cast an incredible actor to center the episode around who would be utterly god damn captivating to watch.

forked over the money for the blu-ray box set in May and have been watching an episode nightly with my roommates — absolutely love it. Doing things this way has changed my viewing habits, too: haven’t used a streaming service at all since we began
I’ve started rewatching some of The X-Files and it really is amazing that even a bad episode of this is exponentially better than almost anything from the streaming era.
