#EarthDay is always a reminder that I interviewed its founder, Gaylord Nelson, at a gathering for local Democratic candidates in the Eau Claire area on a weekend morning in October 1978. He was most gracious with a young, inexperienced reporter. We could use more public servants like Gaylord Nelson.

This saga has been so infuriating. The city would rather have one person store their personal property in public space than see dozens of customers able to hang out, build community, and spend money at local businesses and restaurants.

Should add - the cat was fine, if a little shocked. Friend's vet said there's a sweet spot in, er how do I put this, building height... where cats can maneuver to land on their feet and avoid major injury. #TheMoreYouKnow🌈

Screens are also not strong enough to keep cats from falling out, as reported by a friend (I swear). Just a PSA addendum to your PSA.

Don't know what I was expecting when I got a protein latte at Starbucks today, but it certainly wasn't something that can only be described as "chunky" and "chewable."

With his time at the 10th Circuit, Gorsuch is the one justice who is most knowledgeable on law relating to tribal issues though.

Just so you understand, this is as if you prepared for argument in front of a panel that included Cookie Monster, and Cookie Monster asked you a question about cookies, and you had not thought about cookies in advance.

I don't want to be part of the story, just know that YES I've been waiting for this to be investigated. PB Cups suck now. I'm glad the secret is out. I haven't eaten chocolate in over a year.

I am 100% still addicted to Life Saver Sour Gummies though.

I'd argue a compounding problem is that since audiences started getting their news via social media redirects there, functionally speaking, ceased to be a distinction between Opinion and News sections

Equivalent to a 20yo today knowing who Elvis is, would be me in the early aughts knowing who The Drifters, Dean Martin or Perry Como was, which I did.

I think a lot about how we knew what came before, and without the benefit of the internet at our fingertips. What changed?

Conversely, I think this reality DID happen for a lot of people...those who are now in charge of our institutions and leadership. And they have to believe it was true for the majority of others or they would have to admit they grew up wealthy and not "middle class" like they've always believed

The US has spent nearly a century zoning one place for residential, an entirely separate place for commercial, and then requiring that we drive back and forth between the two. This results in constant complaining about being stuck in traffic.

Everyone thinks this is normal.

The level of rage I feel daily at Chrome's split view.

Dragging a tab out to a new window? Oh, surely you meant split view! Trying to figure out how to close split view and go back to separate tabs? Surely you mean closing one of those tabs.

Flames. Flames on the side of my face.

Most of the people I know who work in tech refuse to have anything "smart" or IoT in their homes. Some have even downgraded to dumb phones as their mobile devices of choice.

Lust, lies and empire: The fishy tale behind eating fish on Friday An old myth holds that Catholics eat fish on Fridays because of a secret pact a medieval pope made to sell more fish. That's just a fish tale. The real story behind fish Fridays is way better.

Reminder that the Catholic church considers alligator, beaver, and capybara "fish" for the purposes of Lent. www.npr.org/sections/the...
