And had been trying to point out how ski resorts in europe were the main nodal point for this exploding in europe. (2/3)

And I remember how I hadn't even bothered to do all the assignments of private lessons for Ontario week; it was the hardest and most complicated part of my job and I had already known weeks ago that it wasn't going to happen. (3/3)

I want to personally give you an update regarding operations, forward looking plans and an update regarding our staff and team-members.
Effective the end of business operations, 4p, on Saturday March 14th, we will be closing winter operations for the 2019-2020 season.
Operations on the 14th will be limited to skiing and snowboarding via our entire lift system (so long as the wind allows for it, minus our
Aerial Tram which has shut down for the season), and limited food and beverage operations. Our Pumphouse Indoor Waterpark, Clips and
Reels indoor Climbing Gym, Taiga Spa, Jay Peak Ski and Ride School and all regularly scheduled après ski and concert events will close at
the end of business operations this evening, March 13th.
This is obviously a difficult decision for us and one that we have not made without hours and days of deliberation and predicated on hourly
updates from federal agencies, state offices and international health organizations. At our core, and despite all that we’ve built in and
around us over the past decade, we are a mountain community. And we all cherish that unchangeable part of us-both in serving that index
of our guests and enjoying the mountain ourselves. But, even before that, we are an employer and a member of both a closer-in and much
broader community of friends, neighbors, family and guests. And we have an obligation to those segments, and their safety, above anything
else.
The most recent tipping point for us was the announcement by the Quebec government to limit entry into the United States and similar
restrictions placed on travelers from our Ontario markets. Given that we are about to welcome thousands of Ontario guests onto our
campus, most of them returning friends and repeat vacationers, saying we are disappointed feels like the understatement of the century.

I remember how scary it was, but also how relieving.

I had been sitting in my office watching this spread across the world since January and trying to tell folks that this was a big deal, and being told I was overreacting and fear-mongering.(1/3)

David Johansen, New York Dolls Frontman and Punk Pioneer, Dead at 75 David Johansen, frontman for the New York Dolls and the last surviving original member of that pioneering punk band, has died at the age of 75.

Another pioneer gone. Without the #NewYorkDolls the 70’s NYC punk revolution wouldn’t have happened. RIP to a great one.

Screenshot of my Facebook post of a YouTube link/photo of The Rolling Stones video for “Waiting on a Friend.”  My text in the post: "My friend Steve lived in the apartment right above the St Mark's B&G in 81-82. So many memories of sitting on his fire escape smoking up and people watching between trips downstairs to the bar. My old haunt International Bar on 7th St I believe shows up too. David you should remember this."

I’m a damaged and abused white cisgender male who was raised and educated to get orgasms from hurting folks who weren’t just like me (if you’re still reading you won’t be surprised to hear that I was raised as an xitan (3/?)

I understand that my AuDHD makes me see things in super simplistic obvious logical terms, and also makes it impossible to understand why we don’t just facilitate the emotional development of all children so that they don’t become Stephen Miller (1/?)

Thank you for being so open here. Makes me so happy to see you finally finding your joy and confidence with a partner to be able to have the level of trust to do wild shit like this (and then share it hah!).

a group of cartoon characters are watching a man play a keyboard Alt: The Simpsons song about giant advertising statues come to life; if you “just don’t look” then they lose their power.

You keep on doing you. Also please keep calling out these haters. Screenshot and send to their wives/partners/employers. Nothing you are putting out there hurts or threatens anyone. If you don’t like it, (cue old Simpsons reference), “just don’t look!"

46 years ago I was 16, had lied and connived to escape the parents, and was at my first ever concert tripping balls. The first time #TheClash ever played in NYC. Tripping balls. Unfortunately I didn’t realize how amazing it was to see Bo Diddley until way later.
