The day is done and I'm now the big 5-0. I rarely do anything for my bday and I've never done any fundraising personally. This year I learned some of my friends are AMAZING. Happy to report we raised $1,070 for the Michael J. Fox Foundation! #TeamFox

The FSA Store - Browse and Buy over 2,500+ Flexible Spending Account Eligible Items Online The FSA Store carries over 2,500+ guaranteed FSA-eligible products, health essentials, and more.

I've mentioned this before but it bears repeating. Don't leave FSA funds on the table at the end of the year. LOTS of places like homeless shelters etc... would love donations of FSA eligible items. For the past 2 years, I've used left over funds to shop here: fsastore.com - then donate the items.

Reminder: We spent YEARS reading thousands and thousands of articles on the Tea Party and how it was a true expression of the American people's will, and it never mounted anything nearly as big as Saturday's No Kings rallies. [1/3]

My dad, who will be 79, is going to #nokings in Lawrence today. He informed me that he has not been to a protest since May of 1970, following Kent State.

This is bad.

When the Vought/Trump people start making NIH institute directors political it is a VERY BAD SIGN for all of US science, which stands on NIH/public funds.

Institute directors have always been serious scientists selected by other scientists— not political appointees.

Criticizing the state = Weakening national unity = Helping the enemy.

It’s a classic loyalty framing tactic.
Instead of debating facts or principles, the state (or its defenders) reframes dissent as betrayal.

If we can’t question authority, then we’ve stopped defending democracy

We charged our Ioniq 5 at a supercharger once just so we knew how to use it before our 1st long road trip. Highest speed I saw was 99kw 😂. We’ve now driven from Denver to Daytona beach and back and Denver to Chicago and back. Never had to use a supercharger. 12-20 minutes at EA every time.

Every time I see a new model Y or 3 I assume the owner has never read a comparison test and loves sitting at the charger for 30+ minutes.

Hyundai IONIQ 5 sales top 30,000 in the US for 2024 after 'strong demand' in Q3 Hyundai set a new third-quarter retail sales record in the US, partially driven by “strong demand” for the all-electric IONIQ...

One of my favorite biases in the U.S. auto press is the use of the IONIQ 6 as a whipping boy because 'it's not selling like the Tesla Model 3' (spoiler, it doesn't need to when you have a dozen cars selling in volume globally vs 2), anywho, continuing my series of EVs the IONIQ 6 outsold last Q:

This is about that time that Aurora city councilman Sundberg forgot to renew his website and someone bought the domain and redirected it to an article about his racist FB videos. Steve vowed to never talk to the Sentinel again 😂

Speculating on Republican motivations, Dougherty said at his Chestnut Hill event that he expects the court to continue playing a major role in election law: “The theory is that we have to deal with a congressional election in 2026, and there’s preparation regarding gerrymandering for the next presidential election—should there be one.”
