Welp, that's a win for the fundamentalist Christians who believe the earth is 6000 years old.

"Have we met before?" seems reasonable.

CORRECTION The entrance I used has been around since 2023. And the Madison extension of the LIRR has been rattling around in the imaginary since 1963. THAT'S MORE LIKE IT.

The new entrance was actually designed to enable commuters, part of the Long Island chemin de fer (LIRR) extension. Lexington line users are just collateral beneficiaries. I'll take it. (Still looking for proof of the new entrance opening day! Found this.) www.mta.info/project/east...

Anyway! Tryna get from Madison or Fifth to the East on a freezing cold day?? Go to 44th and Madison, you're in luck.

THIS has no precise date. But that's an impressive turnaround time. Amazing it took literally 100 years to build our local station and extension, but this midtown entrance popped up almost overnight! Is Mercury retrograde? LOL. 😏https://youtu.be/z84U_8Gz_Zk?si=WBF3YXQd9eD2rP3I

At first I was embarrassed by my hermitude. "I'm so enmeshed in my hood I have no idea what's new in midtown. How long has this been going on🎶?" But now I discover that they broke ground on the entrance only a year ago. Whew. That's totally okay, right?

Oh dear... I mean, the art and the artist, and all that. But .... Antivaxery is so unfortunate. And railing at Fauci is just slovenly.

We can talk about the social Darwinists in long form, at lunch, and on panels, but we do immense harm by throwing the D word around on social (!) media. Many readers of social meeja will get the wrong impression.

I know about that. But we shouldn't use the terminology. It supports the jerks who hijacked the name. Every time we use the word Darwinism to describe their ideas, we inadvertently empower our enemies. Call them what they are. Fascists.

I am fascinated by heating technologies these days. They removed our old system, and I miss it. But I'm learning about this new system and figuring out how it works. Also learning about the old system which I didn't fully understand...pipes under the sidewalk is a fascinating invention.

The Australian male at his very breast, I mean best.

Wow! Heated sidewalks. That is something I have never experienced. I wonder how that works. Electric? Petroleum based boiler system? Did the buildings use castiron radiators? Or hot air? If you can even remember...Maybe you were just glad to be inside! ❄️

Minus 90???? How on erf? What sort of heating tech did you have in Wisc?
