Someone needs to learn boundaries. And yes, we’re *those* cat parents, so keep that in mind if you ever ask us to bring food to a potluck.

People tell me to be safe while biking, and while I appreciate it, what I'd really appreciate is people going a step further and pondering *why* they think biking is unsafe. Because then they'd have to grapple with the fact that we've designed our society to make biking "dangerous" for many people.

Welp, looks like Apple Maps is out, too. Off to see if Mapquest still exists and if they have an app.

Reporters: Please stop calling things DEI that are not DEI. This is only cementing the propaganda being used to legitimize the dismantling of all types of initiatives that are not DEI as well as legitimize efforts to end civil rights enforcement. Be specific with your language. Be accurate.

Elon Musk is a Nazi. Full stop. Substack is supporting and endorsing a Nazi, days after that Nazi told the world he was proud to be a Nazi.

Decent people have got to leave Substack. Please. I'll follow you wherever you go, and I'm happy to give you my money wherever you land.
