Saved you far too many clicks: It's funded by increasing distribution from the permanent fund to a 3-year-averaged rate that is below the interest it earns currently, but could invert at times.

My entire 30+ mile round trip last week cost about 30 cents. Even if I amortize the entire cost of the bike into my yearly trips (which is an absurdly fast amortization) ... it's still 1/5 the cost of driving. And that would be "I get a nice e-bike every year"

240Wh to fully recharge my battery after 14 miles of city riding. (335ft of total climb, no net elev. change) That's: 58 miles/kWh 94 km/kWh 1965 MPGe Or about 0.6 cents per mile at (higher than national average) Massachusetts electric rates.

You can’t be mad at plagiarism then read articles that are just regurgitating of previous articles with NO CITATIONS or. Minimizations of other disciplines And be shocked privileged people repeat that

i'm so tired of this "middle of the country is a proxy for conservatism." It's fucking NOT. Minnesota has the highest per capita population of trans people. We're a very blue state. Chicago fucking exists. Even South Dakota is more purple than people think.

If you want to follow this analogy to where it's actually going, if you do not pick a car, one gets picked *for you* by *someone else*, which then not only replaces whatever conveyance you took to the dealership, but that of your family and neighbors as well.

The queer failure mode is just as bad as the straight one, but it looks different because of the pressures to perform the gender roles are different.

Aria Stewart @aredridel.dinhe.net · 06/02/2026
Sure, it can work, and does frequently, but all the most durable relationships I know are forged friendships, and _actually treat each other as equal people_, and even when they're men and women, have an air of equality to them, not strong 'man' and 'woman' gender roles.

Aria Stewart @aredridel.dinhe.net · 06/02/2026
I roughly agree with this, and find the other people quote-tweeting kinda revealing (and wow are they straight). Lots of relationships that are ongoing kinda suck! I think a lot of y'all are caught in some local maxima that aren't very good.

Some great news. My hybrid memoir IN OPEN COUNTRY will now be published by Little, Brown. It’s about freedom of movement and stillness in the US, and the ways capitalism & settler colonialism have shaped (and continue to shape) the answer to who has either across time. I also do a lot of walking.
The Publishers Marketplace announcement of my book, which reads

“Rahawa Haile's IN OPEN COUNTRY, a personal and political hybrid memoir of the author's transformative Appalachian Trail thru-hike, exploring the history of freedom of movement in the United States, and reckoning with America's foundational myth of conquered wilderness, the violence of national borders, and the legacy of diasporic placelessness, moving to Bryn Clark at Little, Brown, at auction, by Julia Kardon at HG Literary (NA).”

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.
Screenshot of an X.com post by The Associated Press (@AP) stating that dozens of immigrant families protested for better treatment behind fences at a Texas detention facility, where a 5-year-old Ecuadorian boy and his father were sent after being detained in Minnesota. Below is a video thumbnail showing a crowd gathered outdoors along a fenced walkway; many people wear bright blue or red outerwear, and some hold signs.

Let me give you a thought experiment: Imagine not just a ban on qualified immunity for authority, but a reversal; a new legal framework, under which authority bears greater responsibility than civilians in matters involving force—as it should. www.the-reframe.com/absolute-imm...

Absolute Immunity
Alignment with supremacy is a vile choice. Raising the natural costs for those who make that choice by putting first things first.

There are lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to Nazi Germany and there are also lots of reasons to compare what is happening now to the post-1850 Fugitive Slave Act U.S. and it's *weird* how people respond with interest to the former but total confusion to the latter

A thoughtful, progressive, high-engagement participant like Sky Marchini deleting their account due to leftist harassment is such a tremendous L for this site. Let's be very clear, Bluesky is dead - commercially nonviable - if it can't moderate courageously enough to protect people like Sky.

But single issue voters always fuck shit up. There’s a better option. Vote for it or else. Use leverage the rest of the time to keep them in check. It’s ongoing engagement not a one and done vote. Positions change if you do the work.

Bullshit. I’ve literally organized actions against a local Dem to get him to change position. And it’s only organized action that works. Build a bloc of voters.

No, that's not how statistics work. You can't look back and blame people because the decision already got made with the information that was present then. This is like saying you could have won stock trades if you had later information. Sure. If you had a time machine it sure would be nice.

And if that were true, we'd have precise predictions of results. We do not. If you got one I suggest cleaning up in the betting markets.

Citation needed. The outcomes of prior elections affect future ones. Reporting and positioning create feedback. It's an _extremely_ dynamic system.

Aria Stewart @aredridel.dinhe.net · 01/01/2026
This is what I mean by the bozo bit. Analyzing politics as a static system and not a dynamic one is stupid af. And post facto evaluation of probabilities as definite. Like fails stats 101.

That's a weird distinction. But it's too focused on the individual. _we_ get to decide. Collectively. And we did. For worse, in this case. But man lotta people on the anti-genocide but not particularly pro-democracy left flipped the bozo bit this last election
