I am altering the deal. Pray I don’t alter it further.
One almost has to stand and applaud the sheer brass neck of the WRU in its brazen attempts to pass off this constant jack-knifing

“Upgrade station access”… but you can’t actually access the station unless you’re in a car.😖
What gives, NZTA?🤨
Pedestrian access was clearly shown in earlier planning docs—but now there‘s “no space”? Is this removing footpaths to add more turning lanes? Or what?

It’s really important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that they’re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.
Safe bike-lanes mean business.

Last week Time Magazine solicited a piece from me on Zohran Mamdani & anti-Muslim hate. I pitched a framing re the dehumanization of Muslims & how Mamdani’s inclusive, socialist campaign in its content resists that. They agreed. I wrote the piece. 1/

To be asked to write about racism only to be racially aggressed in the editing process is a new level unlocked I have to say.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

One of the greatest deceptions of our time is the false narrative that we should somehow be more concerned about how a poor person uses the welfare system than we are about the ultra wealthy swaying the highest positions or power in our country to their favor.

Stray remark c. 1948 by William Carlos Williams: “It is shocking for the uninformed to look at a Picasso or to pick up a poem by Rosalie Moore. He can’t understand them.” Struck by that seemingly provocative equation (Picasso = Moore) since I didn’t recall ever hearing of the latter. So, two poems:

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

My great uncle was a pilot and member of the Royal Aero Club before joining the RAF Volunteer Reserve, in which he was an "Air Gunner" and Sergeant. Killed when his Blenheim night fighter couldn't find the airfield to land. He'd moved up to assist the pilot, would have survived if in his turret.
My uncle built the touring gear and guitar racks that sit to the side of the stage of EVERY band you've ever heard of.
I don't need the lore behind your favorite posters... tell me about your uncles

i have posted before that i think you are an artist before you ever make a painting or song or book. i understand it is a unique perspective and that is okay, but i am thinking on it again after seeing post from buckaroo @scalzi.com specifically how it relates to my perspective on grief and death
Proposition: You become a writer the moment you write, a musician the moment you make music, a painter the moment you paint, etc. You become an artist the moment you find your own voice as a writer/musician/painter/etc.
Yes? No?
