One of the best things about the beach is coming home and showering off all the sunscreen and sand and the water runs filthy and you really feel like you’re getting your money’s worth out of your soap

This map of when people get on and off the Bloor-Danforth line 2 subway is interesting (though not especially surprising) in terms of data, but what really stands out for me is that it's gorgeous. Just a brilliant piece of data presentation. schoolofcities.github.io/transportati...

It’s funny given just a few generations ago his Italian heritage would’ve been viewed the same way.

There are 15 candidates on the primary ballot for 5 at-large seats. At-large seats are a relic of the past and should be abolished. No other major city in NY has a majority of at-large seats on their council - for good reason.

Thank god it’s easy drinking hot country beer season again. Wretched IPA mass self flagellation winter is over.

Long live the easy drinking hot country beers.

i think the biggest public relations coup AI boosters scored was calling it β€œAI.” people genuinely think it is an intelligence, and that when they query it, it is providing reasoned answers

Episode IV
It Was All So Stupid

Seriously, you would not believe how stupid it was. Every day, unrelentingly, just the dumbest stuff by the absolute worst people. And what made it worse was knowing that we’d brought this on ourselves.

I just realized so much stuff in the UK is like HM Treasury because his/her is interchangeable on the letterhead etc but we need a nonbinary monarch because I want to watch the scramble for it to all be switched to TM.

Schumer could have misread the electorate and his caucus and not put himself at existential risk, but by doing both *while* disregarding his colleagues in the House he's completely destroyed his legitimacy in 24 hours. It's really incredible.
