Do we need to bring or buy gear, or can we try it out without gear?

My husband (who loves the books) says, "Yes, the first chapters are the weakest. It picks up when doughnuts can start to talk." That second sentence has no meaning for me so I apologize if it's a spoiler.

Based on the news I cover I'd agree on the ferality theory in general. I hope Feral Divorced Guy faces consequences and the kid (!) he attacked is okay.

Fuzzy memories and hard facts: An SC accuser's claims against Epstein, Trump examined An alleged victim of Jeffrey Epstein gave FBI agents true accounts of her time growing up in SC. Claims she made about Donald Trump remain unsubstantiated.

Recreational weed isn't legal in Pennsylvania so downtown Pittsburgh smelling like skunk weed has nothing to do with its legality and probably if people could just buy gummies, it wouldn't smell so much. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

Hahaha yes. I live at the top of two short but steep hills. Sometimes the hardest part of my ride is getting to my front door. No Google Mapsing my way around that.

Hey now, don't underestimate the ability of Americans to spend $$$ on exercise gear they never use!

I think that's probably likely. I've seen stats like "40% of all bikes sold since 2020 have been e-bikes."

Oh shit, good question. I'm on vacation but I'll drop a line to the newsroom.

I think the survey is over-estimating but I'm personally a pedelec evangelist. Especially in Pittsburgh, owning an e-bike makes a cyclist lifestyle so much more accessible. The hills are still a challenge but not a death wish.

Do it. I am so much more willing to go biking with my pedelec. No more looking up at a hill and going "Fuuuuuck this." In the summer everything is a bike ride away. It's amazing.

Also Cincinnati goes hard for Baseball Opening Day with a parade and street fair and everything but it's not, like, an official city holiday. Close enough.

Pittsburgh is pretty damn Polish and also loves any excuse to drink beer and eat pierogies so I think we're missing a trick by not celebrating it.

Buffalo has Dyngus Day which is allegedly a Polish holiday but I've never seen it anywhere else with a Polish diaspora

Definitely, definitely watch New Zealand and Australia. They all manage to be as hysterical as the original show while also finding their own beats and vibes. NZ introduced us to Guy Montgomery which led to Guy Montgomery's Spelling Bee which is ALSO a delight. All on YouTube!

Iran Says Dozens Are Killed in Strike on School The strike on an elementary school in the southern Iran town of Minab was one of two attacks that appear to have hit schools during U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran on Saturday.

During the U.S. and Israel attack in Iran on Saturday, dozens of people, most of them likely children, were killed when a strike hit a girlsโ€™ elementary school in Minab and a high school in Tehran, according to Iranian health officials, state media and a human rights group.

I am going on vacation out of the country for the next week. While my sanity needs the break, I am also really mad because I'm supposed to be getting a bunch of RTK responses back next week and Small Computer Not Good At Datasets Like Big Computer.

This is also how I know I need a break.

Read this CBS News producer's whole letter, which @oliverdarcy.bsky.social has posted below this post.

It is beautiful. You should read it. You really should read it.

Not a meth lab!!

Crew was clearing out a basement and found unknown chemicals. Hazmat turned up, determined the chemicals aren't a problem, and called a clean-up crew.

They thought it might be! But it's not.
