You've probably bought plenty of their stuff, but in the same sort of once-removed way that you have also bought Lockheed products (food ingredients for the former, tax dollars for the latter).
I think I'm one generation too far out from this, but I should check again one of these days.
Just out of curiosity, y'know.
Starting to unfollow a couple ostensibly important/informative accounts just because they are so often the bearers of bad tidings and psychological stress.
And others that are supposedly of similar interests/alignments but just annoying.
You have agency, you have control. Use well.
James Starley on a Salvo tricycle, which utilized a differential gear he invented, 1877.
Starley's Ariel bicycle, which is considered the first "penny farthing".
Inventor James Starley's improvements to early high wheel bicycles included tangentially-arranged wire spokes, all-metal frames, and center-pivot steering. He's considered to be the father of the bicycle industry.
Happy #BicycleBirthday, James!
April 21 (1830-1881)
We went way heavy on a weeklong Miami vacation last year. To be fair it was our first trip in years and first as a four-member family, plus we didn’t know that our room had its own washer and dryer.
We also packed everything in one jumbo suitcase. 70 pounds and I now have a chronic shoulder strain.

Once upon a time they knew better about these things.
Constant positive, 2nd term negative. (px-m)(qx-n).
p x q = 20, so 1 and 20 or 2 and 10 or 4 and 5. Leaning towards the last pair since the middle term isn’t that big.
m x n = 6, so 1 and 6 or 2 and 3. Same choice logic as above.
Middle term is odd so (odd x odd) + (even x even).
(5x-2)(4x-3)
And yes, I am very Early Is Good.
I travel with a Swiss Army knife (corkscrew!) and a safety razor. A second pair of shoes for my enormous feet take up a third of a carryon. I also detest wrestling with a bag in an enclosed space with other people close at hand. Skill issue nothing; checking is civilized.
Was just looking back to see when you decided to let go of the Medallion because I MEAN C’MON.
Worked got Garrison Keillor until we learned he was a creep. If you’re not a creep, then sure!
I mean, sure. That's a pretty regular trait for us.
Problem is getting a decent group to agree on the changes to be made.
Tomato sauce as in pure tomato puree/strained tomatoes, no, that I'll buy. Most grocery tomatoes are blah and it's too much time/effort.
"Spaghetti sauce"/"pizza sauce"/that sort of preseasoned thing in jars? Take the above, add a dash of olive oil and some salt and black pepper and herbs.
It's the e version of my Mazda 3 (with the same rear-visibility issue). Kinda like it?
I looked at how much a Bugatti cost and I walked away thinking the Venn diagram of overlap between people who can afford a Bugatti and people for whom the sensory experience of driving a Bugatti makes sense is very small.
Ford’s future was an ugly Polestar?
1967 Ferrari 312 F1.
A difficult year, one truly tragic race, but a beautiful machine.
As someone in a long-term-plus-kids-but-not-married relationship, kinda surprised the language isn’t explicitly “husband and wife” here.
That and the Giulia Super and the Jaguar Mk1 and you’ve got a Goodwood grid on your desk.
A rendering of the interior of an enormous space station. The foreground looks like a Modernist prefab home catalog, behind that is a lake in a state park, above both is a series of clear panels, and beyond that the structure curves up to the top of the frame.
All hail the Stanford Torus.

If you see this. quote a picture of you in glasses:

Wish they’d changed the name to Crown or Corona or something for that generation. Camry was that squared-off nerdmobile that was great for being invisible; this was several quanta past that.
When I went through a miserable two-plus months of being sick from about mid-December on I just kept a running Word doc of symptoms, temperature readings, doctor visits, and general griping. Actually helped a lot on the mental side of the ordeal.
Because everyone who saw it thought it was a Polestar.
Because NYC deserves Fashion Police for real.
Down with this.
