Welp, my first tubular bind-off is decidedly not stretchy, so the brim of this hat is way too tight, but I like how the colors came out! (Bindle Hat by Wool and Pine) #knitsky

Drove Kebler Pass in CO on maybe the last warm day of the season yesterday. The late afternoon light in this aspen stand took my breath away.

The thing about Mamdani in this moment is that he is telling people that they do not have to simply accept what's on offer [and you see how much powerful interests HATE that]. He is doing this in just a couple of areas. Others could do the same focusing on the areas of life that most speak to them.

The amount of times I’ve heard fellow educators say, “Just use AI,” is really starting to bother me.
If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

They both hate the cities and desperately want the cities. Similar to how they relate to women.
So Big Balls was standing by his car at 3 am when two 15 year olds tried to take the car.
Elon claimed Big Balls tried to save a woman from a dozen attackers instead of what actually went down, and now Elon is demanding that DC be taken over by the Feds.
(Tiny Balls is more like it).

“Sorry, can’t do the DOGE check anymore, but can I interest you in minus 37 dolls?”
Trump: "A young lady -- 10 year old girl, 9 year old girl, 15 year old girl -- doesn't need 37 dolls. She could be very happy with 2 or 3 or 4 or 5."

Can we stop calling these atrocities "deportations." These people sold to El Salvadorian prisons were not deported. Deportation is a process that did not take place. They were rounded up and removed with no process. They were kidnapped, not deported.

Same thing he said to Ukraine. Breathtakingly evil and frightening.
Trump: "We don't need anything from Canada, and yet it costs up $200b in subsidy to keep Canada afloat. So when I say they should be a state, I mean that. I really mean that ... some people don't have the cards."
