People who don't ride #EBikes tend to have a lot of misconceptions about them, often assuming they're just about being lazy, wanting to go fast, or (more reasonably) not wanting to get to work stinky and sweaty in the summer.

But for me, it's *wintertime* when my #Ebike shines.

A detail from Ursula K. Le Guin’s Book of Cats (Library of America, 2025).
The corner of p. 79 in Ursula K. Le Guin's Book of Cats shows Ursula's drawing of a scruffy little cat, all black with green eyes and a slightly grumpy expression, sitting upright with her tail curled in front of her.

If Trump saw a globe rather than a Mercator projection he might notice that Greenland is actually smaller than Algeria.

The United States of America died five years ago today.
The nation we knew and loved was destroyed by Trump and his hoodlums even tho Biden tried to hold the line, we were on life support while Trump set up shop at Mara Lago and has never been held accountable. America as we knew it is no more.

This probably didn't work out the way Jim Jordan's staffer intended.

Q The team's work, the prosecutor's work. So you subpoenaed Speaker 20 McCarthy's toll records after he became Speaker, and you sought records from 21 November 2020 through January 8th, 2021. What were you looking for with his records? 22 Like what did you do with the information you obtained? 23 A Okay. So the relevance of those records, there would be several examples, 24 but his contacts with either co-conspirators, the President, or conduits of information to the 25 President was relevant to our investigation. An example I could give you is, on January 6th, wu 1 we had information from Mark Meadows, who was present for a call where Congressman 2 McCarthy was asking for help. He was asking the President to come to his aid while the 3 Capitol was being seized. a Getting the exact tol records for when that happened was relevant for our 5 investigation both to question other witnesses about it so we had an accurate timeline and 6 also to corroborate that the call happened at approximately the time witnesses said it 7 happened. 8 Q Butts pretty significant to subpoena the Speaker of theHouse's toll records, 9 right? 10 A We followed Department policy, and we followed all legal requirements in 11 getting those records. 2 Q 1mean, you know, to get the information you're looking for, nobody disputed 13 the Speaker and the President were having communications on January 6th. So one way. 14 you could have gotten that information is you could have asked the Speaker's lawyer to look 15 at his phone records and to give you the information you needed, right? 6 A Well, you say now that nobody is disputing, but my experience in criminal 17 investigations i that people often at trial dispute things that you never thought were going 18 tobein dispute during the investigation, and so, when | conduct a criminal investigation, | 19 don'tassume there will be no disputes.

The plot of the current series we’re living through, now and its ninth season, is more convoluted and weird than The Crying of Lot 49.

Never forget: The Wall Street Journal came out against the Vietnam War in 1967, BEFORE the Tet Offensive, after which LBJ withdrew from re-election to focus on a peace deal.
The NYT only came out vs the the war AFTER Tet.

the balance hasn't remained constant, but people have long wrongly seen the NYT as a liberal publication that feels the need to bend over backwards for conservatives to fight bias charges, when in fact it's a conservative publication aimed at convincing liberals. they're more open about that now
