I think it's neat that Wikipedia made a big, helpful map with a big red X indicating the site with the earliest evidence of marijuana being smoked. Big red X, big black arrow, name of the place, etc. People who want to pay tribute to it by going there can use this map to do so.

a map of central asia, covering parts or all of Kyrgyzstan, western China, northwestern India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan, with an arrow pointing to the Jirzankal Cemetery, which is very near the border between China and Tajikistan.

We must continually rise to the task of defining ourselves, or others will gleefully fill that void.

Aspirational colorblindness, a la United Colors of Benetton (e.g., the idea that most people WANT to eradicate racism, even though they may be a bit hamfisted in going about it).

Today on #TransitTunes, we paid homage to the late, great Eddie Van Halen, born #OnThisDate (1/26) in 1955. Gotta say, I do not feel nearly the levels of shame I'd assumed I would rockin' out to Van Halen all day. #MusicSky

I am a bad person. Not, like, unethical or evil. Just really bad at this whole being-a-person thing. Can't I just be a tree, or an aria? I'd make a great shaft of light for cats to sit in. Or an equation! Complex & unparsable by normies, yet utterly logical & accurate. Balance me, bitches.

One of the (several) problems with the demand that bystanders and targeted people be immediately compliant with ICE agents is that fleeing ICE is incredibly rational. They’re violent, piggish thugs who disappear some people into horrendous gulags and shoot others in the face.

Having the best time on the bus today, despite it being an extra shift, because #TransitTunes is celebrating the big 5-0 of the great Jenny Lewis (born 1.8.1976)! Jan 8 offers formidable options (it's also Elvis Presley & David Bowie, among others) -- but I def made the right choice. #MusicSky

One step forward; 2, 3, 4 steps back. Every time I think I'm on firmer ground, something else gets pulled out from under me. I just don't know how to keep doing this. I thought I'd just be living by now instead of always fighting and scraping by. My mom took me on vacations as a kid! I'm so tired.

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

Listening to Iowa treasure & Badelamenti/Lynch muse Julee Cruise on the bus all day -- she would've been 69 years old today, 12/1/25. Cruise (1956-2022) had a voice that could only be described as the platonic ideal of dream pop. #TransitTunes

🧵ON PANIC: I am afraid of falling. I've had this fear since childhood, though I don't recall any event that may have caused or it. It's very particular. I'm not afraid of landing. I'm not afraid of getting hurt or of pain or of damage to my body. I'm afraid of the actual sensation of falling.

Sometimes, on #TransitTunes, I'll choose an artist I've just never quite grokked in hopes of discovering just what everyone else loves about them. This morning, listening to Matthew Sweet (born #OTD 1964), I was rudely reminded of how inexplicably anxious certain eras of pop music make me. But ...

Hell of a sunrise this beautiful fall morning! Happy October, BlueSky! For #TransitTunes today, we're rockin' the psychedelic sounds of Shocking Blue, the Dutch group from the 1960s/70s led by singer Mariska Veres (1947-2006), born #OTD.

Early morning. Exterior lights are still on at a cluster of county-owned farm buildings, viewed from across an e.pty road. Above them, the sky is beginning to lighten, and clouds lit from below a warm, salmon-y color fill the sky.
