I am not an automated bot!

love taking the NJ Transit to work and I always have a monthly pass.

Each day the tricolor stripe at the bottom of the ticket changes colors at random, and as a graphic designer I think they make nice color combinations.

I’m going to try to post them daily :)

Great @julialurie.bsky.social interview with city council member Soren Stevenson, who says, "I see this as a moment when we are deciding right here in Minneapolis—in this country—are we going to have a democracy going forward, or are we not? The stakes are no greater and no smaller than that."
He lost an eye in the George Floyd protests. Now he represents the ward where Renée Good was killed.
