CO -> DC -> MN -> CO I work in marketing and will never post about it. What you will get: books, movies, local politics, and pics of my dog. Find me on a bike.

I think a lot of Dem politicians are banking on that “D“ in front of their names shielding them from being labeled Nazi collaborators when the dust settles, and it’s our duty to remind them that that’s simply not the case.

I’ve started working my way through Rolling Stone’s 500 greatest albums list on my bike rides, meaning today’s soundtrack is “Ask Rufus” by Rufus and Chaka Khan, followed by “Suicide” by Suicide.

We’re sharing below clips of journalist Hossam Shabat, whom Israel assassinated in northern Gaza earlier today. He was a role model to Gaza’s children, especially those aspiring to become reporters. Video from @ GazaMartyrs

I think it’s important to remember that a real conspiracy is the reason Epstein was in jail. When the true story involves elites conspiring to do something so evil, it’s not a huge leap to think they may have conspired on something else.

My new favorite pundit thing is when they ask, “But will the political consequences be too great for Trump to do XYZ?” What consequences? He already won a second term! You think he cares what happens to congressional Republicans?

Folks doing this *in cities* baffles me. Cities intrinsically have a lot of people and are constantly evolving. It’s so weird to think that should all come to a screeching halt for you.

This year I read fewer books (45) than I did last year (52), but it was still a great reading year. The highlight was probably my intro to Donna Tartt, with both “The Secret History” and “The Goldfinch.”

It just occurred to me that even if Trump actually does all the worst most fascist things he’s promising, all the surviving presidents will probably still attend his funeral.

I still can’t believe Coke went live with that AI ad that literally misspells Coca-Cola. Imagine if a human made that mistake. But because it’s AI (and thus drastically reduces labor costs) they let it slide. So stupid.

A ★½ review of Juror #2 (2024)
Interesting idea in search of a movie. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but this whole thing felt like a bad episode of Law and Order. Some of the cinematography, dialogue, and plot choices were dow...

Credit where credit’s due: #Denver is doing some things very right when it comes to the 16th Street Mall. Can’t wait for this space to be fully reopened next year.
Nighttime view down the reopened section of 16th Street Mall, with holiday lights, wide sidewalks, and lots of space to shop, eat, and relax.

There’s really no excuse for Denver not being a world-class bike city. The weather is mild, it’s mostly flat, it’s full of people who pride themselves on being outdoorsy, and some of its most popular attractions are pedestrianized zones.
