A few of my favorite things: hot water with 🍋, crafts, 📚, XR, pretending I work out 💪, estate sale treasures, supporting impact creators, democracy. Sarcasm is my love language.
Waymo is now in Denver. I assumed that since they don’t have drivers, they go to some kind of a Waymo garage with an attendant that plugs them in to Waymo charging stations. This is going to be rough if we have to compete with them in addition to all the other EVs at public charging stations.

Claims that immigrants “take American jobs” ignore the reality that many of America's biggest companies—Google, Nvidia, Intel, Goldman Sachs, Tesla—were founded by immigrants who created jobs, innovation, and economic growth.

When you forget that you are wearing your leggings that match your dog to your workout and then take your dog for a walk in the neighborhood… new neighbors probably thinking I’m always matching my dog

Anyone else ever attend @24hourplays.bsky.social events? I’ve been going since 2018 (maybe earlier) and damn are they impressive. I always prefer the musicals and tonight didn’t disappoint. Brilliant work by all but my fave had to be the last one, a brilliant ode to West Elm.

Whenever I watch competition shows where a challenge is eating bugs and organ meats I realize what I was made for. But also how do I get on these shows without any actual physical strength/skills 🤣

The Trump administration has quietly doubled down on its decision to stop sending emergency food to children starving in Bangladesh, Somalia, and other countries. Without urgent intervention, these children might die within months, @hana-kiros.bsky.social reports. https://theatln.tc/kQAZFJJw

Who else loves this man to the ends of the earth?
The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

A former French military base, Vauban is a thriving neighbourhood of 5,500 residents connected to Freiburg town centre by bus and light rail. Built in the late 1990s as a radical experiment in low-car living, it forgoes virtually all on-street parking in favour of active, green, and social spaces. 🧵

Sadly the press continues to be complicit by failing to report accurately on what is happening. This is not a "DEI purge". This is the systematic erasure of the important contributions of Black historical figures. The erasure is rooted in re-segregation and racism.

A US-born citizen was walking near Chicago in January. ICE snatched him off the street, handcuffed him, threw into a van. His wallet, which contained his ID, was confiscated. He was detained for 10 hours before being released without a record of what occurred.
