an out of order thread of references you missed in benito bowl 1/ Ricky Martin! A PR artist who made the cross over into US audiences. Came out in 2010, and an icon. He sang Bad Bunny’s “Lo Que Le Paso a Hawaii,” which translates to “what happened to hawaii.”

In case you missed the moment. Art is powerful

Olympians are masking up with N95s because they know a covid infection can derail their chances of competing. They know it could derail their careers. They know it could disable them. They’re practicing self care and community care. Give them a gold medal in public health!

11:15am: Absolutely puking snow out there. The best time to enjoy the snow (sledding, walks, etc) is starting now and will last the next few hours before sleet starts to creep in. I hope you all are able to get out there and take it all in!!

my regularly scheduled grocery shopping day happened to coincide with the upcoming storm and why did people pick the shelves clean like we can’t shop for three weeks?

The absolute awe I felt watching Maki in the JJK episode. If her heavenly pact is now complete, can she mess with fate like Toji did?

Opposing denser housing out of concerns of housing backlash turning into transit backlash is short sighted. More people helps the economics of transit, which is often pointed to as a reason to oppose transit. Also, a city with housing near transit is a better city ❤️

a heavily armed paramilitary force with legal immunity is occupying a city and going door to door kidnapping non-white adults and children in furtherance of an explicitly white nationalist political project

They really expect the World Cup to go forward in the US this year, huh?

New York is breaking the trend of having the data center industry push the nuclear industry forward. NYS doesn’t have data centers, and it’s the state trying to pull nuclear power forward

Instead of whatever this is, we should have a government getting lots of new homes and apartments built, lots of clean energy built, lots of high speed rail and transit and bike lanes built, human rights for everyone, economic & healthcare opportunities for all, & innovation that leads the world.

This all seems pretty unbecoming of a FIFA Peace Prize winner

@elhilopodcast.bsky.social did an in-depth podcast on US-Venezuela relationships in October as the US was escalating tensions. very much worth listening to today. an english transcript is available too

A picture is worth 1000 words... This appeared on the BBC News today, showing the increase in solar electric generation in the UK. Not sure who produced it, but genuinely think this is a genius piece of scientific communication - the construct and choice of colour scale is near-perfect. Chapeau!

Fix indoor air pollution and poor ventilation! I often measure CO2 of 2,500 ppm due to poor ventilation in buildings and airplanes. At this level, COVID spreads easily, and brains suffer: test scores can drop 44%. Suggestions: invest in HEPA filtration, ditch your gas stove, improve ventilation.

The women’s sports boom is here and league leadership in both soccer and basketball aren’t ready for some reason

@lissaharris.bsky.social Don't let anyone tell you philosophy is not helpful for decarbonization.

most people, left and right, treat traffic violence like the weather and not a specific policy choice

The problem with the two-day weekend is you have to do errands. And then you have to choose between a fun day and a rest day and as humans we need both.
