If you don’t want to take the booster don’t. But to prevent adults from having the choice is depraved.

One of my former clubs tried to have a protected lane removed and thank goodness failed. I couldn’t understand the “but what about our club sprint point?” Comms. The sprint that is used for exactly 1 min every Saturday.

I get emails all the time in my inbox meant for another person with my name who has a very similar email address as mine. No matter how much I forward it, they come back to my inbox.

A reminder that one could, if desired, run approximately a marathon following the route described in The Hold Steady’s “Southtown Girls.”
A plausibly runnable route from former scene-center City Center to Southtown Center’s fabric store to the former Rainbow Foods/Party City at the Quarry is approximately marathon distance, roughly following the directions provided in @TheHoldSteady’s Southtown Girls.

I had a friend in high school who wanted to identify male but felt afraid to for obvious reasons. We lost touch after high school but I’m proud of him for living his best life now.

That result against the Leafs is a microcosm of the season. Well, there is next season. #LGRW

All of these world events are so incredibly stupid. I don’t want to be on the stupidest timeline any more…

I’ve viewed this moment as we are living a collective trauma again without acknowledging or coping the most recent (COVID) collective trauma. Lead poisoning though…That gives me a lot to think about.

Based on some interactions I had with some people this week In pretty convinced we are living through another collective trauma.

Thanks for the context. Admittedly I missed the last 10k, only saw photos and a post race summary on Cyclingnews. The outcome makes a lot more sense even if the optics are still bad.

Yeah this is the one! I remember watching it. Never thought we’d see see a larger tactical blunder than that

There was that one race where the INEOs guy (may have been Ian Stannard) beat 2 Quickstep riders in one of the early one day races. Today’s race was such a tactical failure for Jumbo
