Over to you @whitecapsfc.com!

You mean Mike "Stanley Park Bike Lane" Klassen? That guy? His track record on road safety issues is tragic--October 17th can't come soon enough. @mikeklassen.bsky.social

I read a 9,000 word article today, and it was great.

What if I killed myself instead of living in a timeline which consisted of nothing but idiot juvenilia?

Could be that claiming that you were duped by AI slop is the new "my account was hacked" . . .

Can confirm.

Today was the day I got the "made it through another winter" feeling. And it was a good feeling.

There are schools on US military bases all over the world.

"Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) operates over 160 accredited schools on U.S. military bases worldwide, providing K-12 education to over 130,000 military children."
