Will you be implementing project beaver in your community upon your return? Or should we consider this the end of beaver infrastructure discussions?

@mathowie.xoxo.zone.ap.brid.gy loved your Japan blog post, which I found through Kottke! But specifically wanted to thank you for that long press camera button feature! I hadn't discovered that yet.

The GOP's ongoing success is an indictment of journalism, in and of itself. I don't know why they don't see it that way.

Thanks for this comment. I had not hear of Fontaines D.C.! Now I have also gone down this rabbit hole. Very good. I definitely agree there is some 80s DNA in there. Smiths, Cure, and DM are all there for me too. Also perhaps some Chameleons?

Did not expect you to start talking about beaver more than Bad Bunny. If I don’t get blocked for the double entendre, I look forward to more of this fascinating content!

@eliasisquith.blog we recently had a back and forth about The Smiths in The Killer. That led me to listen to them a bit. Now Spotify is recommending More like The Smiths. How do you feel about this? 🤔

Silicon Valley’s Very Online Ideologues are in Model Collapse

Two valuable things that did go away with twitter and haven't been otherwise replicated were a public customer grievance line (complaining to Brands) and government agency/transit updates. Just part of the massive erosion of accountability .

Barn Owls! in Manhattan! 🦉🌃 This week, a family of Barn Owls was discovered on a water tower in NYC. Two adults and five young ones have been observed/confirmed so far! 10.9.2026, NYC Photos taken at night, using long exposure and ambient light - it is actually VERY dark up there! #birds
Close up of the top of a wooden water tower at night, with part of a brick and stone building and out of focus light green foliage in the foreground at the right of frame. On the very top of the water tower, a Barn Owl is perched. Another Barn owl is just below/ to the right, and a third one at the bottom of the slope of the tower’s roof, to the far right. A closer look reveals two more Barn Owls peering through a hole in the roof, facing the cameraClose up of the same water tower; three Barn Owls are visible on and near the very top of the towerCloser crop of the top of the water tower in the previous photos - one Barn owl is in profile on the top of the tower, another is just below and to the right, also in side profile. Part of the face of a third owl can be seen in the hole in the roofCloser crop of the top of the water tower - one Barn Owl is perched on the front/left slope, blending in very well with the rust-brown of the roof. Two other owls are peering out of the hole; one owl still has downy baby feathers at the top of their head

The other main concern is the extensive use of rodenticide in NYC, which is being ingested by many, if not all of the rats this owl family is eating. Proper trash containers like the Empire bins, as well as alternate methods of rodent control would make the city a safer environment for them.

the reason they never found Savannah Guthrie's mom is because nobody in the bureau knows how to do a rear naked choke.

Illegal entries are down under Trump, but he's cut legal immigration even more than illegal immigration. The cuts to immigrants, refugees, parolees, students, H-1B workers, and fiancés were 2.7 times as large as the cut in Border Patrol arrests and evasions. www.cato.org/blog/trump-c...

Found it interesting how Von seemed genuinely more nervous around Zohran than other guests. I've only watched a handful. But I think interviewing somebody really smart and savvy made him self-conscious. Could also see Von contort himself a bit to make sure his audience knows *he* isn't a socialist.
