The internet loves pictures of big stuff on bikes. Here's today's coöperation between an dirty old Riese & Müller cargo bike and a dirty old Ikea Poäng. Never have umlauts looked so hot.

Mark Epstein email to his brother, Jeffery Epstein: "I have access to the Internet because WNYC is across the street broadcasting with generators. I happen to get their wifi signal. I went over there the other night and badgered them for the user name and password. My Cooper Union Chairman of the Board business card helps in those situations. "

Mark Epstein convinced someone at WNYC to give him the wifi password during the 2012 blackout.

This skeet is for a very niche audience.

Screenshot of obituary for LA Times plants reporter Jeanette Marantos: "Marantos wrote personal finance stories for The Times from 1999 to 2002. She moved from Washington back to Southern California in her 50s to restart her journalism career, at one point interning with KPCC, now known as LAist, Dimitri Smith said. In 2015, she returned to The Times to write for the Homicide Report. A year later she started contributing to the Saturday section’s gardening coverage, which she would work on full time in 2020 when it relaunched as L.A. Times Plants. She described the two disparate beats as a way of staying balanced, her yin and yang."

Absolutely love this career trajectory. RIP to a legend. www.latimes.com/lifestyle/st...
