A bit bittersweet taking the train for one of the last times before I move. Excited to be back in NYC, but going to miss this trip being such a big part of my life.

❄️❄️❄️

This is just truly one of the most successful urban policies of our lifetimes and we need to replicate it in every major city.

Plan for next year: more varied selfie poses.

OH NO.

It’s -700°, you should be tea-maxxing.

If this gets made you have my permission to mute because I will be posting INCESSANTLY.

This is great, I’m going to get a good grade at the gay ornament swap party, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve.

This is wonderful for many reasons but among them: OMG THOSE HORNS. www.bbc.com/future/artic...

Holiday train spotted.

Tonight’s weather is very *dissonant saxophone jazz*

We don’t talk enough about how viscerally upsetting the NJT map is, what do you mean you split the state in half and rotated part of it 30°?

Love watching from a stalled AirTrain as the train I wanted to catch from EWR pulls away, awesome having to wait nearly 30m for the next one, incredibly cool we can only manage ~2 commuter trains per hour from one of the country’s largest airports to its biggest city on a weekday afternoon.

Extremely fun and cool to have one exercise that seems impossible to progress on for no discernible reason (this is a seated leg curl subskeet).

I love the Portland Japanese Garden so much.

Deeply obsessed with this 70s moleskin jacket (which was…official NFL merch?!?) I picked up at the vintage mall today.

Bonus because it cleared up further and Mt. Rainier (100 mi. away!) appeared behind Mt. St. Helens.

I also struggle conceptually with mountains being this tall.

We should find a way to add an outdoor deck with fire pits and a sweeping view of the Rockies to LGA.

Cannot wait to get to Portland tomorrow, at ACUTE levels of needing to wander aimlessly around a pine forest.

HEARTBROKEN my go-to spot for vegan soft serve stopped serving it but on the bright side the quest for an alternative lactose-free icy treat today led me to THESE. 🔥🥭🔥

Armsday.

I have been changed For good

This is one of the most hopeful state-level policy developments in the US. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

It is truly absurd we're not already mandating massive cuts to methane emissions, one of the cheaper, easier, and faster pathways to curbing climate change. amp.dw.com/en/cutting-m...

This with a dollop of yogurt was a shockingly good breakfast.

Well…not perfect, but tasty!

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Viewing weather looks about the same tn, but planning to drive into the Catskills for darker skies and hope for some breaks in the clouds. 🤞

Dopamine levels after listening to “Dopamine”:

Ok it’s mostly overcast here unfortunately but can anyone tell me if the green tinge at the bottom of these clouds is the aurora or light pollution?

Making pie crust for the first time, send positive energy/minimal gluten development.

Don’t listen to anyone who treats climate action as a lost cause. Every tenth of a degree makes a difference. We have to keep fighting. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

In something of a state of awe after listening to Lux. Rosalía’s made one of the best albums of this decade.

Got a new haircut and am seeking your recs for salt spray and pomade. Pref for products that wash out easily!

This passed! NY will be adding 2500 acres to the Forest Preserve in the Adirondacks. That’s a larger area than Central, Prospect, and Flushing Meadows Park combined.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative electrek.co/2025/11/04/a...

It’s almost like making it faster, more frequent, and more reliable made people use it more!

Huge night for map nerds. www.fastcompany.com/91435051/new...

Last night’s election was big for housing ⬇️ —NIMBY NJ Gubernatorial candidate lost decisively. —Mamdani, promising to pause rent increases & develop 200k affordable units, won NYC decisively. —All pro-housing referendums in NYC passed. —Housing funding measures passed in Columbus & Denver.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

A lot going on tonight, but Dems flipping the Dutchess County Legislature here in the Hudson Valley is huge. GOP has controlled it for the last 18 years. app.enhancedvoting.com/results/publ...

Trump: "Hear me, President Trump, when I say this: to get to any of us, you will have to get through all of us."

The passage of CA Prop 50 wraps a big night on the democracy/voting rights front. In addition to Prop 50, most notably: ME rejected voting restrictions, PA preserved its liberal supreme court majority, and VA cleared a path to end its Jim Crow-era system of lifetime felony disenfranchisement.

AOC: "This is about, do you understand the assignment of fighting fascism right now? And they assignment is to come together across difference no matter what."

Too early for final results, but we're seeing — once again — losses for conservatives in school board races in multiple states. Stay tuned.

BREAKING: Colorado voters approved a ballot measure that would raise state income taxes on higher-earning households to fund free meals for all public school students. Follow AP for live updates.

Almost unprecedented levels of LFG!!!!!!!
