I opened my door a crack to let the dog out and got hit by a blast of really cold air. That's enough outdoors for me today!

@scottgordon rips into the incredibly silly "far left controls Madison and we centrists are being oppressed" narrative in Tone: https://tonemadison.com/articles/the-madison-uniparty-is-not-oppressing-you-because-its-not-real/
Here’s a recruiting idea. Pass out flyers with the time of your Indivisible meeting in just a two block area around your home connecting with people you know and that you don’t know yet. People are a little puzzled when they open the door so I actually find it’s easier if they see that I have whistles and buttons. The whistles actually I buy for two dollars each so I just charged two dollars so I can get more. I don’t have a license to sell, but I will do it until I am told to stop.

What a mess. A melange of genuine concerns, NIMBYism, AI misuse (or blaming AI for fraudulent statements about the race of the leadership of the applicant porganization), alleged conflicts of interest, ... It's hard to envision a good outcome here.

The Wilson Street cycle track in #MadisonWI made the People for Bikes list of the 25 best bike lanes on 2025. Well deserved (and a major advocacy win for Madison Bikes!) https://www.peopleforbikes.org/news/best-new-bike-lanes-2025
I made a short video about the track earlier this year https://youtube.com/shorts/idpjKvixwqI?feature=share
Attention Palladium and Rifts fans in the Madison, Wisconsin area, the east side HPB has over a dozen of their softcovers in good condition and relatively cheap. Somebody sold their entire collection!
Edit to add the actual store!

WORT was there, and this is what we heard…”
