Worry feels like doing something, as if the more you experience distress, the more you’ve done. But feeling changes nothing.

A frenzy of sudden activity and quick, quitting exhaustion also feels like accomplishment. “I did everything I could!”

But things are very bad, and we need more than that.

Immigration isn't half the problem it's made out to be.. 10 year average it takes to become a US Citizen, and they get to be exploited the entire time.. yet we collectively shit on them for being willing to take the worst we can offer, just so they can stay alive..

I've reached out to the individuals I'm aware are in hot zones so far, I'm not about to let my friends get swept up in this .. if you know anyone who's currently going thru the lengthy citizenship process, start flooding the system with their progress, overload it, break it...

*copied from the FB post I made*

I'm hearing a lot of rumors that ICE is now also targeting Native Americans within the 100 miles zones, without hesitation, all Native friends of mine in those areas who need a place to stay if shit gets bad, reach out to me and I'll see what I can do...

I'm currently searching for a rear rack, but I'd like to find one that has the luggage wheels that will let you roll it while it's folded, for trains and such .. I know there's options out there, but my bike isn't common, outside it being semi universal to Tern & Dahon

I bought it new from REI, because I specifically wanted a folding bike with an IGH

The newest bike in my fleet also happens to be the one I have owned the longest, this bike was a huge part of my daily life for most of the last decade... My 2014 Novara Flyby, it's got a Shimano Nexus 7spd hub, and currently running BMX tires from HARO, at 20x2.2...

I'm working my way up to affording a proper grinder before I dive into Espresso at home .. but I do like an Ristretto from time to time

which one do you use?

I've been exclusively using a Chemex with cloth filters and a conical steel bur hand grinder for about 9 months, with an occasional use of my French Press, Aero Press, and Moka Pot.. but those depend on my mood, cloth filter pour-over brewing is just divine to me

My current daily ride while the other two gave much needed maintenance done.. A 1960 Schwinn Traveler 3 Spd

The bicycle is the greatest invention ever

This cartoon is spot on.
