So does UAE protect Tadej, or do Tadej and Isaac send it and try to secure second overall for Isaac? #tourdefrance #tdf

Hoping this gets to the right place: #ARMY #BTS #bangtan I have 2 tix to BTS in Chicago Fri 8/28. Friends got seats elsewhere, so selling the two I have. Bought on StubHub. Only trying to cover my costs. $738.82 for 2 tix = $369.41/ticket. Section 431 row 19. Reply or DM me if interested.

Update snippet from NYT; sounds like whatever deal that is in the works to reopen the government will reinstate fired workers and provide back pay.

Curious to hear other people’s thoughts. I don’t think there was ever really a “win” scenario here for the Dems. Idk how far out they planned an end game. What would you have liked to see happen?

SO this lady who lives miles away from me in a different neighborhood filed a complaint w/the city that’s now potentially going to get my little free library & little free pantry shut down unless we can amend code to specifically protect site amenities as such pls sign my petition c.org/DRrMJb6Czq

a screen shot of an email that says:

Hi Ace,

There are 1600 food pantries in Palm Beach County. There are meals on wheels. There are a lot of resources. I don’t need crackheads outside at 2 AM getting food from your little pantry and making all kinds of noise on the corner and people dropping off unappropriate food items That bring rats and roaches into the neighborhood. Food pantries make sure all their food is not expired and is up to code. Also people dropping off all kinds of broken items and things like that. Go work at a soup kitchen if you want to help people or do something else and stop putting Black Lives Matter signs and defund the police all lives matter and we need the police we all need order in this world. Not to be mean or condescending, but that little food pantry it needs to go.

If you haven’t heard the original 4-track demo version of Green Day’s Basket Case, you’re missing out. It’s amazing and a totally different vibe + lyrics. You can find it on their 30th anniversary album of Dookie.

Absolutely dead after 60 miles BUT I did set a bunch of 2nd best PRs — but I was solo and not in a group so it’s probably my best solo times on that road. Full gas there and back meant the final 15 miles back home after the ride I was destroyed 😂

Accidentally left my cycling shoes + helmet + kit in my carry on which I forgot in another state… so I cannibalized the pedals from my commuter for tomorrow morning’s ride 😛 I don’t hate it though!

Borrowed a bike this weekend that is running 25c tires. Quite a change from my normal 32c tubeless (the 32c are more comfy). My commuter is 28c tubes but I kinda want to covert them to 32c tubeless…

Being able to ride a bike to get around is so lovely, especially when the weather is nice. Safety is a core component of this. Protected bike lanes and dedicated bikeways make all the difference in the world in terms of experience and willingness to go out and ride.

Got back from a 20 mile ride and proceeded to run down the street chasing the ice cream truck. Very fun moment to be a child again on a summer afternoon. He saw me — got a vanilla cone. It was delicious. Enjoy the moments you have, friends 💙

Just walked a little over a mile through a suburb with sparse sidewalks, in order to get to a brewery. Opened my the book to my current chapter, and it’s titled “The uses of sidewalks: safety”.

Just re-indexed my gears, first time doing so on this bike. I think it’s all good? But I wish there was a perfectly quiet drivetrain… does such a thing exist? Can you perfectly index so there is never any noise and all shifts are perfect? Or does that require wireless shifting?
