Simple job yes? Just glue those last 2 curvy bits to the flat bits, NBD yeah? [5 million clamps later]

Round wood table with 2 lil bits left to glue up

Table now with ten clamps. We had to extend the longest clamps. Then there's 2 clamps holding down the wood that will stop the clamped bits from flying up or down. Then the extended clamps were drifting sideways so we needed to clamp the clamps in multiple locations, and it was still precarious as hell, threatening to pop off at the slightest provocation

New American cars are so bad they have me longing for *this*

An 80s Ford Taurus sedan. Nice low hood, much less acceleration than probably any car today. It was total junk but hard to kill a pedestrian with

I do not like my city's historic commission one bit nosir but this is what happens when you have no historic oversight at all. There must be a middle way...

The El Morro theater in Gallup New Mexico has a lovingly restored facade but they demolished the hand lettered marquis and replaced it with 3 friggin led TVs sticking out in a truncated triangle, with no trim or anything. I could not believe what I was looking at.

Speeding is giving in to capitalism. Don’t speed.

Speeding doesn't actually save you meaningful time. All it really accomplishes is aggressively increasing the chances that you kill yourself or someone else outside your vehicle. It's a mathematically flawed, entirely selfish risk.

Only anchor institutions are surviving on once vibrant South Street in Philly, & 2/3 of the street is dedicated to cheap car storage. Pedestrianize it yesterday

Any sweeping systemic change you want to make in the United States has to begin with adding seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. No major reform bill will survive the current court. No civil rights law, no anti-corruption law, no wealth tax, nothing.

It's an iconic part of my neighborhood. If another one was proposed, people would lose their minds about community character and greedy developers.

He don't miss, but this is a close one. Rebuilding it instead of kicking the can is maybe good, but perhaps a better action would be none: let it disintegrate til it can't support trucks and boom then it's an instant bike ped promenade. It was a mistake to build the BQE, no need to keep making it

Restricting car access to cities means we can stop seeing the air our children breathe

The child liked nothing from the NextGen Acela first class menu. We traversed The Land of the Proles (business class) to the cafe car, where the attendant was HIGH AS HELL, earbuds in, getting their order wrong twice, living his best life. Love that for him.

Entering my neighborhood Ethiopian minimart & cafe to stand under a fan, then sitting with a delicious bowl a beans while the sounds of old heads visiting in Amharic fills the air... it's special

Powerful ceiling fan mounted right over your head when you step up to the counter to order. Chalkboard full of delicious options

This recently was a street to drive through with negative public benefit

Filbert st underpass next to reading terminal market in Philly. It's now full of yellow tables & chairs, dozens of people eating, visiting, reading, resting, existing without having to spend money

Screenshot of Google maps view of filbert when it allows cars. 0 people, 1 car, a box truck, and some police barriers. Utter desolation right outside the doors of one of the most vibrant public spaces in the region: Reading Terminal Market

Waking up to Sharia Law in NYC is crazy. Knicks won, crime is down, 2,000 toddlers are going to school for free, parents got “date night” with nyc babysitters, they’re building housing on city land, small businesses are saving money and selling ice cream. Its sunny out i should go get one.
