I can never seem to remember how wind speeds relate to how windy it feels. Like is 20 mph pretty windy or don't ride your bike windy.

if you live here, you should be able to vote here
Noncitizen voting in local elections was common during the 18th and parts of the 19th centuries and some municipalities in the U.S. have revived the practice. New York City passed a law permitting it, but this year it was struck down.

For a brief moment, it seemed some noncitizen New Yorkers may gain the right to vote locally. But with the law struck down earlier this year, they remain at the margins.

Shoutouts within to @marc-fischer.bsky.social who was the first person I saw distroing whistles and inspired me, to @bibliogrrl.bsky.social who has been 3D printing like a madwoman, and @lefttheprairie.bsky.social who has been responsible for literally tens of thousands of whistles getting out.

Not as funny as when that drunk cop accidentally shot his gun at a White Sox game... Somehow.
The officer was "heading for duty" Wednesday night when his "weapon discharged and he accidentally shot himself in the testicles" in the station's parking lot, records show.
