My family looks forward to the Boulevard Bolt every year. But it’s not the only opportunities to support Room in the Inn! See: www.roomintheinn.org
A grid of photos, primarily consisting of pictures taken of public transit buses from the outside at a stop, pictures of front of the bus taken from the inside, and of streets/bike infrastructure.
A map of a bus system with routes taken outlined, with big text "95 Miles, 7:54:02, 14 Buses" on top, and "Goal: Cover every WeGo frequent service route (8 of them) by passing by every stop at least once to the end of the route" with "was fully documented on @theandreww.bsky.social" on the bottom. Off to the side is "Buses Taken:" with a list of buses and stop times/numbers as seen below: 3 inbound, 1907, 7:00 WB/Harding, 7:26 central 7 outbound, 1916, 7:30 Central 9, 8:01 Hillsboro TC 7 inbound 1916, 8:09 Hillsboro TC, 8:33 Central 52 outbound 2310, 8:45 Central 19, 9:10 Walmart 52 inbound 2309, 9:18 Walmart, 9:36 Lafayette 55 outbound 123, 9:37 Lafayette l, 10:12 hickory hollow 55 inbound 2202, 10:13 hickory hollow, 11:13 central 56 outbound 2209, 11:25 central 18, 12:20 Rivergate 56 inbound 2207, 12:20 Rivergate, 12:32 Madison 79 westbound 1824, 12:42 Madison, 12:54 Walmart 23 inbound 1820, 12:56 Walmart, 1:32 central 22 northbound 1804, 1:35 central 10, 1:55 past NNTC 22 southbound 1817, 1:58 NNTC 9, 2:13 central 50 outbound 2508, 2:15 central 1, 1:55 Walmart
Today I did a "transit speedrun" of the WeGo frequent service network! Why? Why not! I had to fully cover all 8 routes from start to end or vice versa, and make some tight connections! I documented everything here on Bluesky across all eight hours, but here's the condensed collage:
I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.
This is outrageous.
Lots of bad stuff happening right now (#understatement) but at least I encountered one bright spot in the grocery store parking lot today.
Y’all, I don’t want to brag, but I just went to the store to buy one thing…and I only bought the one thing. #unprecedented
Totally agree.
Why is cross country season the hottest season of the year?

Mario Cart tourney at my house tonight. I am so, so bad at this game. But I love the family time—and the mutual taunting.

#PSA: Ticks are not insects, they're parasitic arachnids. Regular insect repellents don’t work on ticks, you have to use permethrin.
So this is…not good.
It’s a long story, but the short version is that my son’s robotics coach somehow wound up with 10 electric guitars, and now my son has one. I’m listening through his closed bedroom door to him experimenting with it.
any MDs here willing to discuss concerns w/anti-amyloid drugs for a story for a major publication? Would need to talk this week. pls DM or email liz@lizseegert.com

The costs keep adding up even if you’re not tracking it.
Recommendations for a portable charger/charging bank for an iPhone 15 that’s not too heavy?
I’m thinking that if pay good money to send your kid to private school, instead of opting for (a perfectly fine) public school, you should perhaps reconsider posting a GoFundMe to solicit donations for your kid to attend a $$$ summer program at a Big Name University.
This performance at Rhodes College yesterday was utterly amazing.
The potential loss of the world’s greatest climate forecasting tool has ramifications for long-term safety and security.
NOAA’s climate modeling systems help the Defense Department not just operate but anticipate and prepare for emerging threats.

thank you! He ran his first half marathon last year at 50. His goal is to finish slightly faster this year. I told him to please remember that he is 51. 😜
My 51-year-old husband is running a half-marathon tomorrow and I am so proud of him. I, the slacker half of our marriage, will be sleeping in.
So perhaps not a good situation to be in when certain leaders are thinking about offering to pay women to have more babies.
Ah, Easter Sunday. The day when people I’ve never seen before come out of the woodwork to come to church and get there early to save all the seats so I have nowhere to sit.
Virginia bluebells in the park today.
Original 1925 jacket cover of The Great Gatsby The Great Gatsby Here is a novel, glamorous, ironical, compassionate a marvellous fusion into unity of the curious incongruities of the life of the period which reveals a hero like no other one who could live at no other time and in no other place. But he will live as a character, we surmise, as long as the memory of any reader lasts. "There was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life. .. It was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again?" It is the story of this Jay Gatsby who came so mysteriously to West Egg, of his sumptuous er-tertainments, and of his love for Daisy Buchanan a story that ranges from pure lyrical beauty to sheer brutal realism, and is infused with a sense of the strangeness of human circumstance in a heedless universe. It is a magical, living book, blended of irony, romance, and mysticism. CHARLES SCRIBNER'S SONS The GREAT GATSBY FITZGERALD
They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.
-FS Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby, published 4/10/1925.
