This woman is an AT legend.

When Gatewood set out, she brought with her just a homemade denim bag with a blanket, a shower curtain, a cup, a canteen and bottle for water, a small pot, a spoon, a Swiss Army knife, a first-aid kit, pins, a flashlight, a piece of rope, a raincoat, a warm coat, a change of clothes, and her trusty Keds sneakers. She wore out seven pairs of Keds during the entirety of her trip. Remarkably, Gatewood did not bring a sleeping bag, a tent, a compass, or a map. Instead, she relied on the hospitality and kindness of strangers who lived along the trail for food and shelter. This was rather easy to do, because Gatewood became something of a local celebrity in the neighboring towns.
Media coverage of her trip was extensive with local reporters stopping to interview her. Her own children found out about her trip because a newspaper clipping had made its way to her hometown in Ohio. Despite this hospitality, the trip was not entirely comfortable. Gatewood often slept on front porch swings, under picnic benches, or on a bed of leaves. She ate canned Vienna sausages, raisins, nuts, chicken bouillon cubes, or greens she found on the trail. Gatewood was particularly resourceful and had learned which plants were edible before her trip.

Those are coveted by the noncredibledefense crowd. You can get copies on AliExpress, but they just aren’t the same.

The telescoping ones I’ve tried have all been sticky like a cheap fork. Four-bar linkages like the Thudbuster work better IMO. Though I have never found a suspension seatpost I really liked. It bugs me to have the distance between the saddle and cranks vary without my input.

Can your frame fit bigger tires? I would recommend going that route if possible.

Didn’t you hear? Lockheed is “extremely woke” according to the right-wing culture warriors:

What a great show. I haven’t watched Get Smart reruns in ages.

When my Waterpik broke after years of use I was happily surprised to learn they still had replacement parts available.

No. I am not sure how we could even craft such a law in the current US legal climate. Political speech, and money tied to political speech, are nearly impossible to regulate in any meaningful way.

I like this representation a lot.

Reverse image search says it’s a Republican fighter from the Spanish Civil War. I didn’t find much beyond that.

This image has probably been extensively cleaned up with Photoshop. The version in Wikimedia Commons is much messier.

Multi-billion-dollar sports leagues can pay for their own damn stadiums. Don’t fall for it, Portland. No public funding. If they insist, then tell them to pound sand.

Edit: Pardon my lazy use of AI, but the combined wealth of the team’s owners is supposedly $10 billion. Fuck these guys, they can pay for the renovations themselves.

Every day is STFU Friday.

actor Matt Damon, who plays Odysseus in Christopher Nolan’s interpretation of Homer’s epic tale, had said in an interview that she had “the greatest arms I have ever seen.”

Damon had been discussing one of the film’s pivotal scenes when he gently corrected his interlocutor, who had mistakenly assumed the biceps in the shot were his own: They belonged to Dalton, who some might be surprised to learn is his stunt double.

A shot of Dalton from behind in the scene, holding a sword and ready to pounce at the giants, is used in one of the posters for the movie.

Confirmed. That’s a damn fine arm.

They’re really going after the root of the problem this time

In such a case, would the two instances still effectively be defederated?

I think so? That’s what I would expect, at least.
