There is some pretty calm on street riding to get to the finished stretch of the MBT that runs from Piney Branch and Takoma Ave to Fenton near Montgomery College. I’m a few blocks past that off of Sligo Ave.

I feel a little left out (kidding!). Hope to join after Thanksgiving. :) And my backyard is large and ready (in Silver Spring) and only a couple of blocks from the northern part of the MBT.

Hard to image Summers actually feels shame but he certainly should. Good riddance.
SUMMERS: “.. I am deeply ashamed of my actions and recognize the pain they have caused. I take full responsibility for my misguided decision to continue communicating with Mr. Epstein.”

I don’t have regrets—I wasn’t that interested in academia. I’m a social scientist and wanted to do policy work. I’m lucky because I’ve mostly been able to do that. My department was clearly disappointed in me. 🤷🏻♀️

PS both of my advisors were women so my experience was about the power of the advisor role, not other kinds of misconduct.

I was lucky I was able to change advisors somewhat late in my PhD program and that made all the difference (I was able to finish). I still went into “industry” but that was likely regardless.

The only thing I don’t like about this post is that I didn’t write it.
Every "population crisis" article in western media is just "WHERE ARE THE WHITE BABIES" in disguise and we absolutely do not have to give any credence to any of them

The French restaurant across the alley from me lost my business because they threw buckets of soapy water into the alley—which created ice floes in the winter and slippery hazards otherwise. They eventually closed.

I did know this. See also corned beef and cabbage, which the Irish learned from Jews in NY and exported back to Ireland. A lovely collaboration!

![The origins of the company can be traced back to Wertheim, Germany, where Brunn started a wholesale spice and seasoning business selling to food industries, seeing an opportunity as spices were in especially short supply amidst hyperinflation in the aftermath of World War I. 9] Due to rising antisemitism as the Nazi Party rose to power, the company moved to Frankfurt, Germany; 1°1 however, on the night of November 9, 1938, a massive pogrom against Jews, known as Kristallnacht, led to Brunn being arrested by Nazi soldiers and sent to Buchenwald concentration camp. "
According to Brunn's son, Gustav's wife paid a large sum of money to a lawyer for him to be released; as they had already applied for and received American visas, they were able to escape with their two children to New York City and later Baltimore, Maryland, where Brunn had family.!'! There, having brought with him only a small spice grinder, 8! Brunn founded the Baltimore Spice Company and produced the
"Delicious Brand Shrimp and Crab Seasoning", which was later renamed Old Bay. 12[13]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ieluoyrr7apgy6rw3uo5zk3v/bafkreify3g7uamukdur4vdensoicfpobn24kjhshztjblwk7ph6ytyvora@jpeg)

I love everything about this movie. Captures all the post-war demographic changes and war trauma through small scale story telling.
