clover,

90+% of this article is good, valuable, and interesting. I too ride on 3-4 lane roads and have dealt with aggressive drivers, it’s nice to be seen.

However this bit chafes:

The dismissive ‘male glance’ is real, on the bike as in all of life. I can distinctly recall men realizing another cyclist (me, almost 50) is behind them, at a red light or whatever, and looking back, only to discover a woman who is older than he is, on a not-interesting-to-him bike, with no interesting blingy gear on it, and have him turn away, barely able to acknowledge I was there at all. What was he expecting to see? A sexualizable object young enough to be worthy of his attention?

There is no winning, being catcalled or ignored is equally appalling to you, how is anyone supposed to go about their life in proximity to you? He could certainly say hi, but is not obligated or even expected to. His response likely has less to do with the fact that you’re a woman than it does with they fact they probably have something else on their mind.

Supreme Court opens new frontier for insurrection claims that could target state and local officials (apnews.com)

Two recent U.S. Supreme Court actions have opened the door to a new legal frontier in which local and state officials can be disqualified from office for life for engaging in “insurrection” or providing “aid and comfort” to enemies of the Constitution, based on a post-Civil War era addition to the nation’s foundational...

This from a court controlled by the party that decries the federal government having too much power. Watch as the spiders eat their own and go on not caring.

clover,

Seems like a good place for free public housing.

Jitsi has done a lot to improve functionality since lock down. Still pretty basic, but it’s free and can do moderation.

It is also the directors job to get good performances out of the actors. When directing a bunch of kids, they should have near line by line direction for tone and inflection, you can tell that didn’t happen, Sokka might be the most egregious example of that.

Lawsuits claim South Carolina kids underwent unnecessary genital exams during abuse investigations (kffhealthnews.org)

Three ongoing federal lawsuits filed in South Carolina accuse the state of forcing boys and girls to undergo traumatic genital exams during child abuse investigations, even when no allegations of sexual abuse have been raised....

clover,

This is from a state where they are afraid of books harming their children.

Here’s hoping she stays in to the primary and splits the Rep. vote.

clover,

If they don’t bother releasing people locked up under laws that no longer exist, why would they bother retrying all those people? To be clear they should do both, but they don’t do much of either.

clover,

What about some kind of curtain? Make it with something strong like iron?

clover,

This article neglects the state of charging and grid infrastructure. We can’t immediately convert all cars to EV, we don’t have the grid capacity or enough charging stations, yet. Each level 3 (fast charging station) is a custom layout and they take time to design and implement.

Source: I design EV charging stations across the US.

clover,

I love seeing the positive impacts of our community. Please keep highlighting new communities. I was unaware of all of them and have subbed because of this post.

clover,

I’m no Muskcuck, but I am in favor of capping the generational transfer of wealth. Let these big inequalities die with this generation and set up a (more) even playing field for the next. If the rich want enhanced educational outcomes for their kids they have to fund public institutions.

clover,

The US has also been passing laws to clamp down on protesting in the wake of the Dakota Access, BLM, and Stop Cop City protests.

The Drilled podcast is doing a season about the global legislative shift now.

Put in a sand pit somewhere you are ok with them shitting. Training domesticated cats is an undertaking that in my limited experience comes down to giving them an option they’d prefer over their current behavior. Trying to dissuade a feral cat from shitting where they please humanely seems like a loosing battle.

Meet Ron DeSantis

I’d really rather not. And based on the downvotess, neither does anyone else.

clover,

If there is a moderate to high likelihood that the average citizen can’t afford rent and have a voice in government (ie. protesting 2 days a week, because their vote doesn’t effect policy) they live in neither a free society, nor a democracy.

One of the reasons children have been able to lead the protests is because they have a safety net.
