I like bunnies and democracy.

- Depends on the company. My husband’s has a lot of foreign workers who go back to their native countries for a few weeks at a time, so the culture is very accepting of taking vacation. He’s about to take his third week this year and is also taking the month of August off.
- A dude on Facebook is trying to explain to me that driving a fuel efficient car is more environmentally friendly than biking because *wait for it* biking requires eating more and the environmental impacts of those calories outweigh the impact of producing, transporting and fueling a car. Amazing

View full threadit's obviously a bad faith argument but even on its own terms it's hilariously wrong. Most of the extra food you need for even high performance cycling is simple carbs with a tiny carbon footprint. One drive through burger is worth hundreds of bike miles!
- Can you explain the numbers here?
- I'm not a logistics expert, but I'm reasonably sure that when a package coming from Rochester, NY to a destination in Chicagoland ends up making a stop in Denver that a mistake has occurred.
- I live in Seattle. I have ordered things shipped from Los Angeles. If they are shipped via FedEx, I know they are taking a detour through Jamaica, Queens.
- Yikes. And I thought it was bad when something I ordered came through Austin on its way to a suburb for processing before being delivered to me in…Austin.

- So gross that PE looks at any medical field and says, “how can we get them to need more visits?”

- Surely some of them aren’t?
- The NY Post is mad that Democracy Forward keeps beating Trump in court.
- Keep up the shadiness, good sir.
- Me and my kid and our next U.S. Senator, @peggyflanagan.bsky.social.
- You and your kid are wearing cool shirts. (Peggy may be, too, but I can’t really see hers.)
- Many American voters are likely to excessively overcorrect from 2024-2025 to look for honest, authentic, effective, consistent communicators who don’t rely on slogans and platitudes in 2026-28. They aren’t plentiful.
- Let’s be clear: there’s no *over*correcting. No amount of correcting in favor of decency is too much.
- Charlie Kirk, who called MLK a “bad guy”: “Brittany Mahomes, like God bless her for speaking out in favor of President Trump during the election.”
- They used to say athletes/celebrities should stick to their career and not speak about politics. 🙄
- No, no, no, they just meant when it wasn’t on their side.
