1/X i know many tried to memory hole 2017-2020 but there are useful lessons to apply to 2025-2028. I'll add as I think of them
Manage your media input. Don't ignore what's going on, but manage how you get your news and shut it off when you need to.

Genuinely teared up at the start of the naked bike ride. Probably 1000 people including Jordan Knepper and a Daily Show crew.

Met a woman who bought a bunch of clear ponchos to hand out.

Back on the streetcar, operator had to announce a delay because of the ride. Then laid on the horn in support

Stay safe out there y'all.

If you're biking nekkid, the high for today is only about 53° F, so make sure you have a plan to warm back up.

If you're *not* nekkid, it's a good idea to have the jail support number written discreetly somewhere on your body where it won't be easily rubbed off.

AI Kissinger is coming, I can feel it. It'll sit in the State Department for Rubio to consult like the Oracle at Delphi.

I'm shocked they don't have covered seating for the players on the bench.
