My body is a temple. It has awakened after 100 years dormant under the ice of Antarctica, and the xenomorphs and the Yautja are about to have a hoedown.

Poco Loco, my local extremely white taco shop, is having a seasonal special "grande gobbler" for a few days. A flatbread with turkey, cheese, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and a cup of gravy.
I've added some of Sauce Leopard's Bird's Blood cranberry Habanero hot sauce to it.
Not bad!

One of the many joys of using AI for programming is the creation of huge PRs on complex topics that the authors barely understand, but still suggest "because they work". Here's a great example from #OCaml github.com/ocaml/ocaml/...

This column is titled “Out With Woke. In With Rage. There’s no reason for Carville to say anything about “woke” except as a signal to other white centrists that it’s ok to move left, but still leave Black people behind just like the New Deal did after the Great Depression.

This list is bizarre. But at least _Kind Hearts and Coronets_ (1949) is on the list! (#45)
The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo!

If you gave me a public transit improvement like REM in my daily life I’d be dragging my friends out to whatever I could with it.
Hell, just during the 4 weeks of half hourly PVD-Bristol bridge detour ferry we had I dragged friends on winter ferry trips with me and they enjoyed it!

Lots of people on Reddit were in disbelief about all the positive REM videos, thinking it was a CDPQ conspiracy.
No, people really do like transit that much. You just don’t follow it when it happens in other cities.
And on top of that, the REM really is a particularly exciting project!

I find this completely believable since "Improved" doesn't mean "sufficient".
and even if it's sufficient, the enormous subsidies to driving remain. My bus could come every 5 minutes and yet I'd still be paying for my bus pass while my colleagues who drive are given $200/mo parking passes free

These non-coercive measures need to be combined with measures such as higher driving costs or reduced car access to have an effect

Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.
One of the bragging rights that the US ed system had in the 20th century is that we didn't have education tracks. Essentially, any kid could go to a CC or state school & major in whatever they wanted to (obviously an oversimplification). I fear this aspect of the American dream is dying.
