I tried to write about the Epstein emails and Trump and I'm just repeatedly running into a brick wall. We know all this already. We have been told about it in great detail. We just don't believe the victims.

Anyone else scroll through their e-mails and not delete one thinking; "I'll get back to that one." and the next thing you know, it's been a year and you never got back to it?

Subways down, sitting on a shuttle bus. Reading @albertkoehl.bsky.social book.

If ur a fan of Toronto history, this is great dive into cycling in the city.

Side note, can we retire the word cyclist & bring back the term Wheelmen? So much better

One of the things I often hear guys complain about when it comes to dating is that they got rejected (or sometimes ghosted) without understanding why.

Are we doing Star Wars discourse? I have so many Star Wars opinions!

idk who needs to hear this but the President of the United States of America is APPEALING a judges order forcing him to fully fund SNAP.

I had the opportunity to meet John at an event, years ago, and mindful of "the failure mode of clever," just focused on being kind and thankful. It went fine, and he probably never noticed my flopsweat. Probably.
