Very cool new program from CHCCS
Facebook post from Chapel Hill Carrboro City Schools that says, “🚲✨ We’re excited to share a brand-new partnership with the Town of Chapel Hill through Safe Routes to School!

This fall, we’re rolling out the Wheels of Wellness curriculum — teaching our youngest learners in Kindergarten and 1st grade how to ride bikes safely and confidently.

The program will be offered at all elementary schools in Chapel Hill, helping students build lifelong wellness skills while learning the joy of biking.

Big thanks to our community partners for making this possible! 💙💚”

Can we move onto the next phase of influencing where I don’t have to watch everyone on Instagram awkwardly put on their pants while standing in front of a camera?

Related: this is why I’m obsessed with browsing my feed on Vinted. Secondhand and vintage stuff being pushed to me by a decent algorithm are so much more interesting than anything mid-range new option on the market.

I was reading a review of Hetty McKinnon’s new cookbook, which was born from her journey to do this! I normally wouldn’t think of myself as someone with a need for an entertaining-focused cookbook, but I’ve been thinking about buying it because maybe that’s where I need to go.

Are we going to go back to zines?? Or some other kind of physically sharing documents that contain information (books???)?

Or, more cynically, will we all just be watching each other's meta rayban feeds?

So idk are we still going to use the internet for this kind of thing? Is it going to be micro communities where you find this stuff? I get that that's why newsletters/substack have exploded, but meh I’m not sold.

But then I was like... why? What would putting it on the internet do? It would just feed chatgpt. I’d never get traction.

So I was like, maybe I should try stuff and then write about it/create content (lol) and, like, be the information I am looking for for myself (and ostensibly other people).

I’ve had a lot of questions lately about various life hack stuff, a lot of it around bike commuting since that's a newer thing we're getting into. And most of what I find is BS listicles, AI slop, and the like.

Background: I’ve noticed lately that it's more difficult to find genuine, helpful information on the internet, which is the main thing I voluntarily use it for.

I think there are still shared norms we can appeal to when we talk to the marginal MAGA voter. But there really are no shared norms left with the core of the movement.

We really should just switch to a year round calendar.

Agree. You would have to pay me a lot of money to be pregnant again, it’s the fucking worst.

“Let Republicans have the literal blood of American citizens on their hands—and make that the central issue of the shutdown. Otherwise, enjoy having your health care subsidy debate in the gulags these people would happily send us all to. I hear that poll-tests great.”
The Case for the Forever Shutdown
Senate Democrats actually allowing the GOP to stop funding the government is only the first step. Now they have to make the case that Trump’s government is illegitimate.
