It’s hard world, but I got to play β€œWerewolf Bar Mitzvah” on the radio today, so that’s something.

Halloween is the perfect example of how the time spent in or around cars are the most dangerous periods of any day for most Americans. And it is rarely acknowledged on a wide scale.

Obviously β€œshrek kampeyn” doesn’t mean β€œShrek campaign,” but what if it did?

Craig of the Creek is so good. S4 E35 has a whole song about not being a narc.*

*with appropriate caveats for kids about things that cause actual harm

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

The makeup and prosthetics in the new Springsteen movie are incredible, especially on the horrifying Chickenman. The beak! The fleshy feathers! You can’t even tell it’s Richard Kind.

If you were out in the streets today, thanks. If you left feeling inspired, please seek out local ways that you can keep organizing with others.

The Myths of Antisemitism Is "Jew Hatred" really so eternal?

Everyone from Bari Weiss to Mike Johnson has been out running their mouths about antisemitism. Andrew Cuomo's doing so tonight on live TV.

@saulelbein.bsky.social has a very important question: what the fuck are these guys talking about?

For our cities, police and any other voices of authority.

Just want to get ahead of the kid shaming content that's coming this Halloween. @thebikinglawyer.bsky.social

This was a good listen. I'm increasingly convinced that children's autonomy is a winning argument for fixing our streets.

One person moving in a multi-ton metal box gets $9,000, and one person moving on an efficient micromobility device gets $225. Electric cars do not solve for congestion, storage, sedentary lifestyle, injury/death due to crashes. The battery in ONE gaint electric SUV could power hundreds of e-bikes.
