Elon Musk’s DOGE Moves to Gut Local Libraries While No One Is Looking DOGE is seizing the Institute of Museum and Library Service.

It's tragic and infuriating to see Trump and Musk going after the IMLS.

In rural states like Maine, the role IMLS plays is incredibly important—from enabling the latest technology and securing reliable broadband access, to supporting employee training and services for people with disabilities.

Dem governor tells Trump she will see him in court Maine Gov. Janet Mills clashed with Trump over transgender rights during a White House meeting.

Dirigo! "See you in court." In Maine, we have lobster traps and legal traps. ⚖️

Mainstream newspapers should consider taking all of their coverage of the federal government out from behind a paywall, because this is an emergency, and many people seem to think this is normal cost-cutting. What good is the real reporting if it's not reaching people?

Whoa!

Why 2023 was the year of the e-bike and not the self-driving car E-bikes and self-driving cars both entered the year with momentum. Only one maintained it.

In terms of mobility, e-bikes are selling faster & having bigger effects on emissions than EVs, much less self-driving EVs. And yet they get vastly, vastly less attention.

It’s brilliant. I might try something similar!

Love it!

The cover illustration of the December 19, 1942 New Yorker. A woman, jauntily attired in cat-eye sunglasses, a stocking cap, flowing white scarf and red sweater rides a bicycle towards the observer, a recently-purchased christmas tree balanced on the front basket of her bike. A black scottie dog runs along at her side. Behind her on the road, the rural farm house where she purchased her tree, with a sign for cider for sale and bushels of apple at the front. It is snowing lightly, and there are no cars on the road, and only two figure -- perhaps another woman shopper talking to the tree sales person -- stand in the background. The title, date, and price of the magazine are at the top. The predominant colors are green and red over the gray of the road and off-white snow, with pastels of the farmstead highlighting. The mood is of independence, self-reliance, and stubborn holiday cheer persisting in any circumstance.

It's time once again for my annual #treebybike post. This is the December 19, 1942 cover of The New Yorker, so one full year after the attack on Pearl Harbor. This would be the first real Christmas alone, or without a family member, for millions. Gas and tire rationing had begun that year. #bikesky

A gem! Love, love , love this song during Thanksgiving and all year round!
