I just rode 38 miles after a week long sinus infection & only my 4th ride in 2026 (Dad's cancer/surgery took a lot out). I have no lungs & no legs. That Sucks.

I'm on my back porch drinking crappy beer from a corner store & enjoying the sunset and the return of hummingbirds. That's Great

Every bike shop, if possible, should have a shop dog. My LBS had one and they were bought up by a corporate bike name and the shop dog had to retire......only to return on certain days when a certain manager was absent.

Our first "scout" returned today. Flew up to the porch, gave me a brief inspection and was back to the feeder. I got VERY excited to tell my wife.

My dad's pathology report for the single tumor found in his lungs had clean margins, no spread,and lymph nodes were clean. Found the tumor by accident after a thoracic CT from a fall, no symptoms at all.

Agree but one thing to watch is how the games the Dallas county GOP and Texas Supreme Court are playing are likely to backfire as more neutrals get fired up from the clear rigging attempt shenanigans

I think almost all to Paxton. Hunt is absolutely horrible and fits right in with Paxton. The far reich (sic) can't stand Cornyn since he showed a smidge of character a few times several years ago.

100%.... Can't run on policy if the generator(s) of policy changes position on said policy every day.

We called it broccoli head when my now 19 year old had it...... he quickly changed when we made recurring references to it in that manner.

If I do.... it's been a brutal day for eating and my gastro system is revolting. The price I pay for a moderately healthy diet 98% of the time.

Spent the weekend in Marfa and Presidio. Nobody wants a wall in Big Bend. Elections matter. To vote tomorrow.

I'm willing to give a pass to the one person who correctly put a dot near Iraan, Texas. The rest of them need some education.

She’s raised almost $20m to help Minnesota – she thinks you can do it too Ashley Fairbanks launched Stand with Minnesota as ICE raids rocked her home town – now donations are pouring in, and families’ rent is being paid

I need to address this immediately, because I am WAY too Minnesotan to ever claim credit for this.

I built a thing to point the fire hose of people's generosity in the right direction. That's it.

I am thankful for the piece, because hopefully it means people will donate more money.

As I transitioned to WFH during COVID the transitions to and from work mode were EXTREMELY difficult. I actually had to drive around for about 20 minutes at the end of the day.

Looking forward to their return soon in San Antonio. We generally get a dazzle of around 12-15 on our three feeders from May-Sept during the event.

It's the unnerving level of fascism in surveiling the members of Congress combined with the unnerving level of stupidity to print it out and bring it front of said members of Congress that just boggles my mind.
