We'll never get proper bike/ped infrastructure at grade at that location. Between ambulance routes and the M-14 on/off-ramp, that intersection will never be safe (I lived right on that corner for years, and it's only gotten worse since). I was just on this bridge, and thought it was pretty cool.

Why didn't you tell me AI meant I didn't have to know regexp anymore??

Anyone need the fan in their Nintendo Switch replaced? I feel like I should use this knowledge more than a single time.

Been a minute since I read the Bible. So much good stuff in there. And timeless.

I am fully down with the cause and purpose of today, but is the art direction of our propaganda actually delivering? Is the cutesy ‘shop local’ craft fair vibe matching the moment? Or maybe it’s the kind of bubble gum subversion that is actually needed to be effective these days?

Stop me if you've heard this one; a blue heron, a herd of deer, and a raft of mallards walk in to a creek...

It's a monumental day of firsts. First convicted felon president, and first bounty hunter First Lady.

"Is that what you wanna do with your life? Suck down peppermint schnapps and try to call Morocco at two in the morning? That's senseless." American Movie (1999). Top 5 favorite ever.

That's not a post. THIS is a post (and beam). Finally raised our timber frame pergola yesterday at LowertownA2.com in #AnnArbor. Never gets old seeing one of these frames go up.

If nothing else, I'm more in to Bluesky because of the malleability and additional experiences that can be created for it. Just like in the early days of Twitter, the most innovative and useful stuff came from the superusers, not the company. Perfect example: @deck.blue

Love this summation of why Michigan’s state department of natural resources is so effective. “Is it the mindset of the people or the competency of the state?” Both! www.reddit.com/r/Michigan/c...

Arnaud Mercier's early 2000s daily design work, blending his Lomo film photography and contemporary typography exploration, were such a huge inspiration back in the day of the personal publishing platform (ie. our own websites). So glad my digital hoarding tendency has kept these around.

From my brother in Seattle (an urban planner), here’s an example of doing big development that replaces a bunch of small one story buildings that have cool bars etc, so their replacement commercial space will be a bunch of small tenant spaces rather than a couple of huge ones.

A friend and neighbor rescued a baby owl that had fallen from a tree, crafted a nest for it, and fed it for a few days. Eventually the mother was no longer wary and returned with a rabbit and it left weeks later. Now we hear this owl (or at least like to think it is) screeching into the night.

Devo is maybe the most interesting band of the 20th century and they broke out after their short film was in the Ann Arbor Film Festival and home town hero Iggy Pop and his boy David Bowie saw it and said everyone needs to check out this weird band and the rest is history.

Got myself one of those "space age measuring tools" that was every Instagram ad for months (the Moasure) and it's totally unecessary but super fun to have a much better model of our land rise/fall.

New logo for the Canadian Space Agency. Has there ever been a tree that pulls more weight, design-wise, than the maple does for Canada?
