Had to get a new wheel and all it took was a train ride to a bike shop in Madison, NJ and too much money but now i am fully "Back on my BS" (Back on my Bicycle, Sir).

Was honored as ever to speak with the brilliant @jonathanmeiburg.bsky.social about the excellent new @shearwaterband.bsky.social record, the deep history of Antarctica, and the need for all artists and writers to get in way over their heads: www.commonwealmagazine.org/rubsam-rober...

A handful of professional cyclists have been hit by cars before and during races this summer and it was inevitable that one of these crashes would end in death. It should be obvious by now that we persistently underestimate and ignore the danger that cars pose to people.

This was a great book, all the more impressive for the fact that @jonathanslaght.com managed to turn a second-hand account into an adventure story that felt really personal and urgent.

I went to a state college very near Princeton, NJ and a freshman went missing and it was discovered that he'd died in an EXTREMELY specific way in what seemed like a horrible accident, and like, two months later, JCO wrote a short story with what can only be described as "almost identical" details.

"The narrative arc of Vance’s redemption is not long, and it bends toward power." The only good thing about JD Vance's new book is that it provides an excuse for smarter, better people to dissect and diagnose his odiousness in smarter, better essays, like this one in @commonwealmagazine.org.

Ohio has known hucksters like J. D. Vance before. The state has a long memory for men who climb the ladder and then kick it down after them.

A driver getting a ticket for running a stop sigh is so novel in Jersey City that it literally made the newspaper www.nj.com/news/2026/06...

6 cars blew through a stop sign during a traffic safety press conference in this N.J. city
Hoboken and Jersey City have joined to lower traffic deaths, install quick-build safety improvements and show other municpalities how they can do the same.

#JCcrashes Driver of a sprinter van hit a pedestrian while turning left from Franklin onto Palisade Ave today. The victim was taken to JCMC. In a study in DC, left-turns were found to make up the largest proportion of fatal crashes killing pedestrians at 21%. Today's injuries not life threatening. /
