Always remember that listening to music can be the entire activity. Put on headphones. Blast it through speakers. Close your eyes and just listen.

Listening to music is not a background activity. It can be the entire journey, and it's worth the time.

Living in SF, an ebike allowed a car-free commute option (publhc transit would have meant 80 minutes to commute 3.5 miles and there were massive hills on the walk route). Here in inner NE PDX, not needed - excellent transit, reasonable hills = regular ol' 7 speed bike is ok.

1. Car-free options for hilly and/or pooly planned (regular distance travel required for basic life needs) cities with inadequate public transport.
2. Same for people elsewhere who have mobility challenges that make walking and/or public transit access difficult or impossible.

Neither should be the nominee (assuming there is one).

Another case of β€œjustified” and β€œwise” being at odds.

The 2A option with this regime will provoke carpet bombing of cities. This is the GOAL - made clear by Trump’s end run around the stay on deploying the Oregon NG. They want ppl to shoot back so they can go to insurrection act and full military weaponry, and are furious that it hasn’t happened yet.

Did Cass Sunstein walk into that New Yorker interview saying "Hello! I'm here for the self-immolation!" ?
What an absolute train wreck. Would be comical if it didn't represent such a destructive and widespread form of denial.

Thinking maybe the US needs its internet access revoked. We're just not mature enough to handle it.

this is the fifth tine i've seen this post - it's verbatim on multiple accounts. identical responses from multiple accounts is what MAGA does. don't do it.

why are you copying a post by snother user word for word claiming it as your own? identical responses from multiple accounts is what MAGA does. don't do it.

legitimacy and effectiveness are not the same thing. something can ge justified while also guaranteeing a horrific and bloidy defeat that destroys the very people needing liberation.

you're suggesting we just give up and it out? then it will be 20 years.

Trump can't take over the guard until a governor denies his request to activate them at the state level for the requested purpose. I'm not a Newsom fan, but based on what he is saying here he's already denied Trump's request.

external dvd drives (super cheap!) still work with the built-in dvd player. weirdly, it's just apple's own superdrive that doesn't.
Blu-ray, alas, is another story.

At least it’s the Orinda theater, walking distance from BART, but yikes.

i believe it's back after going dark during construction but not 100% certain. They take submissions via Film Freeway but I suspect would be open to proposals.

As difficult and massively time-consuming as it will be for many of us, it is past time to disconnect from google. gmail, drive, and office included. and ask everyone we know to do so.

thats why they phrased it to require high birth rates AND high marriage rates. plus the priority to benefit "large families".
