Good morning & welcome to Whiskers Wednesday Never let an opportunity pass to tell someone they matter. You never know how much they might need to hear it that day. A little appreciation can brighten someone’s whole day.

One of the most interesting biographies I discovered during my #DecolonisingChemistry project for the @chemistryatyork.bsky.social curriculum was that of Alice Ball a black chemist, whose leprosy treatment, using carbonyl chemistry to build on traditional medicine, was stolen by a male colleague.
Portrait of Alice Ball including images of the Chaulmoogra plant and its conversion into a leprosy treatment.

Seeing a lot of folks get tangled up trying to understand how on earth we were able to "extend" our federal infrastructure law for a few months, but somehow sneak big new cuts to transit and rail into the same bill we've had for the last five years. Here's an explainer + what comes next.

Advocates Warn Short-Term Transit Cuts Could Foreshadow Deeper Long-Term Slashing — Streetsblog USA
A deeper dive on the transit cuts in the latest federal transportation extension bill – and how advocates are fighting back.

"APTA [...] estimates that public transit funding will take a 20 percent hit under the measure, and passenger rail will lose a staggering 81 percent of its formerly-guaranteed funding."

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

I might die on this hill and I’m so sorry but lake city and lake city way and little brook are not close to light rail. Forcing us to go way out of our way to first get to light rail for every single trip sucks. I love the light rail obvi but can’t I just ride one bus to go where I want sometimes?😅

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

As a creator/publisher: I'd REALLY like for Sweet Shop to work out. Post-Amazon buyout, Comixology died on the vine. It's a non-service, at this point. Sweet Shop is run by ppl who actually give a crap about comics and want to make it easier for people to read them. So grab some ultra-cheap books!

We often have to share an iPad at recording studios where they record audiobooks, and sometimes you get to see what other narrators have looked up when they needed a quick pronunciation guide or definition But I can’t say I was expecting that first tab
A tab in a browser that reads “what is a THOT?”

(also, people looking up how to say “erminie,” “spricht Deutsch,” and “caramel,” but those aren’t as funny)

Until then, a hot tip from the 90's: Build a bookmark list called "webcomics" Order them by when they update in the week (drag and drop) Read down the list thru week. Add to the list as you find new comics. Can confirm, as a person who struggles with exective disfunction, this is easiest way XD

The Cedar River provides about 70% of the total inflow of water into Lake Washington. It helps keep the lake clean, the floating bridges/light rail afloat, & the Ballard Locks operating. In short, Cedar River is doing the most. Come experience its majesty and power and SALMON with us on Oct 11th!
