I want to love wireless earbuds but every pair I've ever used has been so inconsistent with charging. you have to triple check to make sure they're making contact with the pins and it's so annoying

idk how people wear watches this is so uncomfortable

picked up my old pixel 4a while cleaning out drawers and was blown away by how weightless it felt in the hand. with wireless fast charging getting better and better, I'd love to see a return to small superlight phones that you keep topped up with a magnetic battery pack in your pocket

it wouldn't. not when we saw how fast and easily a little russian propaganda turned half the country batshit insane. the only way I see the relationship going back to what it used to be is time: when our grandchildren ignore our warnings about trusting the americans as "zoomer paranoia"

went to a website without an adblocker enabled and jesus christ i forgot how genuinely unusable the internet is without one

fridge being sold for $1488

home depot trying to signal to maga smh 😔

and now a filling came out while I was flossing so I need to go back to the dentist. killing myself

NEVER MIND THEY WERE ABSOLUTELY DOING SOMETHING FOR THE PAIN

like im fine now, dentist drained the pus and prescribed antibiotics. but jesus christ. even taking the max dosage of lyrica and celebrex didn't do anything for the pain

tooth infections are a special type of agony

scorching hot take but "mental illness is real and should be treated as seriously as physical illness" and "people who are solely mentally ill should not be eligible for MAID/euthanasia" are not compatible positions.

ideally, would you prefer more, smaller parks surrounded by towers, like a plaza, over a Towers in a Massive Park setup? if so what do you think the optimum size would be for that?

who the fuck made the Roku app??? if you have private listening on and get a notification, it unpauses whatever you're watching. how the fuck do you even manage that????!?!

Dread it, run from it. Gentrification arrives all the same. And now it's here.

grocery price voters when tariffs and mass deportation triple the cost of food which rots in two days because rfk decided to ban all preservatives

A lot of people are shocked by the “points on the board” phrase - as was I - but it was also shocking how common I heard this and other game-type metaphors.

Many who are deeply disconnected from the harm do view and talk about it privately as a kind of sport. It is gross 🤢

The culture here makes it possible.

After Jan 6th I privately confronted Mace for lying about my story bc she too was terrified in her office.

I said as another assault survivor you know how harmful what you did is. Why? She said “whatever you know it’s a game, just points on the board”

Uhh no???

I've had heart-to-hearts with Republican women who needed consoling after their leadership yelled at them. There are freedom caucus members who regularly call me their sister.

There's kindness behind closed doors. But when the cameras are on, they all bend the knee to hate.

One wild aspect of elected office is way Republicans use LGBTQ politicians as a confessional booth.

Nearly every day in the Montana House, Republicans would apologize for their votes, tell me they wish the culture war would move on, etc.

But rarely would they actually change their vote.

Question: Can you explain the relationship between Thing A and Thing B? Answer: It is hard to find the words, but I can explain it with an ANALOGY! Do you know how Thing C relates to Thing D? The RELATIONSHIP between Thing A and Thing B is the same! What this actually means: Oh, I see now, even though Group A/B is different from Group C/D, I understand the relationship between C and D, so if I apply that same relationship between A and B, this answers my question. Thank you! What an idiot sees: Wait, you think A is the same thing as C? But A is nothing like C! How can you even compare A to C? What a gross terrible thing to do!

the shittiest doodle imaginable

Chicago block. 100m by 200m, with 18 foot wide lane running the length of it.

another image from bicycle dutch's blog showing a road design

blue rectangles are the chicago block, with the brown line as the ally. purple lines are light rail. red lines are car roads, set up like the attached images from bicycle dutch. maybe combine a few superblocks into a gigablock with elevated rail / subway for longer distances.

chicago block is ~100m x 200m with an 18ft alleyway. barcelona superblock is ~400m x 400m. combine 2x4 Chicago blocks into a superblock. run tram lines through the centre roads of the superblock

they should make a fall/winter that doesn't have only 9 hours of sunlight

Direct route of Yonge Street bike lanes highlighted in green. Zig zagging side street route in red.

Ah yes, "cyclists should just take the roads that run parallel to the main arteries"
