5yo singing Herbie Hancock's Chameleon as he's winding down in bed. It's stuck in his head because 10yo has been playing it on the piano all evening. Parenting win.

Design consultants were 5 and 10yo. One of these is scary (or at least very annoying) to parents.

I wasn't nervous about going to Chicago until the government decided to pretend there was a problem to be solved on Chicago. The fact that I'm considering bringing passports just in case is not a symptom of a healthy nation.

Can you think of a single movie in which there is a video from the government denouncing its political opponents playing on a loop in public spaces in which that government was the good guy?

The Trump administration has been spreading anti-vaccine propaganda for months. Tonight, Trump's physician announced he just received a flu shot and a COVID booster.

Another example of the real problem being that people like Cruz live in an alternate reality bubble. Pretty much anyone accusing orgs like Wikipedia, NPR, or PBS of liberal bias is really just showing they don't live in the objective reality.

Starting to think that even if the files get released and despite the horrifying reality they expose, truth and facts in this age have been so corrupted that it won’t even matter, feel like we’ve already crossed a terrifying threshold we can never come back from.

This is great. It'd have been so cool to see this iteration of this group play. Music and silliness? Yes please.

Hiromi's Sonicwonder. She played a solo piano piece (seemingly Keith Jarrett style improvised) that was probably the most mind-blowing piano playing I've ever witnessed.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

So we have no idea who the shooter was. All we know is that he is the guy in that grainy picture. Oh, yeah. Also we know he was a radical leftist. But we have no idea who he is.

A common cycling experience: riding somewhere unfamiliar in a bike lane or path. The plan is to keep going the same direction, but the bike lane ends and the road looks intimidating for cycling. There's a sign pointing in a direction you don't want to go that simply says "bike route". What now?

Worth noting that we spend the weekend wandering around Chicago, riding the el, etc and didn't see a single person get murdered or any crime of note. They seem to have things under control.

Don't forget: only 42% of registered voters voted for this garbage. Only 28% of Americans 18+ voted for this garbage. This is not popular.
