Reminder that Trump claimed he had nothing to do with Project 2025 and wouldn’t implement it
President Trump says he is meeting today with Russ Vought, OMB director and "of PROJECT 2025 Fame," to discuss cuts to "Democrat Agencies."

The US Department of Homeland Security has posted a "meme" video of ICE rounding people up, set to the Pokémon anime theme song, interspliced with footage of Ash Ketchum, Poké Balls, and detainees superimposed on to Pokémon cards.

Pretty grim.

I recently did a big drive through the backroads of Wisconsin farmland and it was beautiful, interesting, and fun. Cars have their place, but that place shouldn't be everywhere.
ppl think I hate cars - WRONG. I love old cars. I just hate SUVs and cars in cities. Driving is cool, not in a city tho. Sitting in traffic isn't cool. Driving on an empty highway is. That's relatively rare experience though.

A video on the hate campaign against Ms. Rachel for being pro-Palestinian children, but really a video about right-wing attacks on children's early education, but really a video about the importance of emotional literacy. Fantastic watch

I called yesterday. It always feels useless.
For once it feels good to know a vote was flipped.
End the genocide.
Tonight, I voted in favor of blocking the Trump Administration from sending more weapons to Israel.

Enough is enough.

Making transit faster and more reliable will increase ridership more than making it free.

What good is a free bus if it never shows up

Los Angeles is crazy because how is Koreatown denser (and poorer) than the densest neighborhood in Washington DC and 75% of people still own a car.

Shopping for EVs in the US is infuriating. It’s a process of finding a super cool option that’s not huge and is significantly cheaper than other options and then finding out they don’t sell it here.

Has anyone gotten so bad with browser tabs that they regularly close like 60 of them without even checking what they are?

DO. NOT. NORMALIZE. THEIR. BUFFOONERY.

The way that traditional media bends over backwards to try to make this all seem "just business as usual" or "normal" is sickening.

These people are killing others all the while completely ignoring long standing security laws and traditions.

Autonormativity can be a hard mental state to break. Consider low car or no car if you have the local infrastructure! My e-bike has changed my habits for the good, even in a not so bike friendly area.
the opportunity costs of car ownership are *massive*

if you invested the ~$1k/mo average cost of car ownership - over 20 years, you'll have $460k at 6% interest, v. wasting $240k on car ownership.

that's a swing of $700k folks.

e-bikes are an *incredible* investment.
