Cycling Almanac about Mark Cavendish with a green cover, gold lettering, and a slip cover with a young Mark in a cap

@cyclingalmanack.bsky.social My Cav Book just arrived in California. The shipment packaging was excellent and it’s in perfect condition - can’t wait to read it!

Waited a couple days to block Brian in case he came back with more gems but luckily there’s always a new person willing to jump in 🫠

Love the book this is based on and the adaptation was great!

Loved this in the TdF!

If anything, it's the other way around. Adoptees literally have the least amount of power in the euphemistically named "adoption triad." Everything was done to us without our consent.

I love it when the big moments in my life are about my husband’s job

The Pandemic Has Been a Portal (for a few of us) It's true that most people keep choosing "normalcy". But the COVID conscious community is showing us a radical new way forward, that centers care

In 2020, Arundhati Roy wrote a gorgeous, prescient essay called “The Pandemic is a Portal”. In this piece, I discuss who actually walked through it: the COVID conscious community, and why I’m proud to be a part of it.

Ever since peacock dropped the world feed, I’ve treated myself to a FloBikes sub and vpn for a month. I don’t want to know how many MILES are left, Bob!

If you want to get into a weird and unpopular (in the US) sport, the Tour de France starts on Saturday. Six hours of beautiful landscape a day for three weeks overlaid by skinny men endlessly suffering. It’s all that’s keeping me going right now

I am often asked: what about gay people who want to adopt? I actually think it’s really important to push back on this question, and any question that centers prospective adoptive parents. Adoption isn’t — or at least shouldn’t be — about sourcing babies for people who want them.

In light of Pride month I'm fundraising for Point of Pride, an incredible trans-led nonprofit that provides direct gender affirming care & things like HRT to trans ppl in need.

Please, please donate any small amount that you can. Every bit makes a major impact! secure.givelively.org/donate/point...

Shield Laws for Reproductive and Gender-Affirming Health Care: A State Law Guide | UCLA Law UCLA Law's Center on Reproductive Health, Law, and Policy has produced the comprehensive "Shield Laws for Reproductive and Gender-Affirming Health Care: A State Law Guide."

Several states have adopted shield laws to protect providers of gender affirming care, including from out-of-state actors who want to punish them for treating ban-state residents. Some states cover repro but not GAC. Know your state’s law & advocate for your state leaders to strengthen protections

Road Book website page teasing the new project

Perfect! Here’s the page that the link in the email goes to, just FYI in case this was not intended. I was able to sign up from the link in your reply above. Thanks again!

Does clicking on the “join waitlist” button in the email add me automatically? The page I get to doesn’t really indicate if I’m on it and the only action to take once I get there is to join the regular mailing list. Thank you!

Looks to be kicking off in CA skylab.cdph.ca.gov/calwws/

A list of Twitch streams that give out checkpoints including D2Checkpoints, LuckBot9, TravelersChosenTeam, D2Chests, DestinyCheckpoints, GuardianDownBot

These are the ones I use

There are twitch streams that give out checkpoints for the encounters so you can skip that stuff. The quests only require encounter completions so that’s what I’ve been doing
