Index-Galena Road Reopens After 17 Years https://www.wta.org/news/signpost/index-galena-road-reopens

"Seventeen years after major flooding washed it out, the Index-Galena Road reopened on a drenching November morning. The rain was coming down hard, but spirits were high — a small but cheerful gathering of elected officials, Forest Service personnel, first responders and residents in the area huddled under four tents next to the rushing North Fork Skykomish River."

Need to check it out before it's washed out again! #Seattle

1. Index-Galena Road Reopens After 17 Years
  
  Major flooding washed out the road in 2016. On a drenching November morning, the road reopened, restoring access to popular trails in the Wild Sky Wilderness.

I'm less tired in general now that I'm consuming a more reasonable amount of #caffeine. :)

Any #bicycle storage or carrying solution that doesn't work with fenders is useless to me. :/ #cycling #mastobikes #biketooter

I feel like through hiking, adventure riding, and bikepacking all scratch the "nomadic lifestyle" itch that some of us have.

I'd personally describe "brain fog" to be more like radio/television static than fog/clouds.

I know what they were trying to do, and it still scares me how people who drive like this are on the road. https://diatom.social/url/1853

When you realize that 5G is actually worse than LTE in real world use.

I grew up out there, but after living in the city for so long, I get really uncomfortable when I end up out there again.

Suburban retail places (malls, strip malls, the stores in them, and so on) feel so creepy and liminal. :(

Over a decade ago ago, I wrote an #NCurses vertical shooter from scratch in C++, but ran out of steam because I couldn't come up with a good AI system for the enemies. Maybe I could try again, but use #Lua or something similar to make AI writing easier. #programming #GameDev

It's like riding a regular bicycle versus riding an e-bike versus riding a motorcycle. They're all fun, but they aren't the same.

At this point, I'm convinced that online friendships and IRL friendships don't fill the same niche at all. Sure, they both bring good stuff to the table, but they check different boxes.

I think my dad likes driving with me as a passenger because he did a lot of driving with friends and so on when he was younger. It's like sitting on a couch together, but you're also moving at the same time. :)

You know you're too far gone when you find the weird idiosyncrasies of the software you use to be cozy. 🙃

The mainstream social network rat race just leaves me feeling tired, so I don't visit them too much anymore.

"The collective erosion of X, Instagram, and Facebook marks a turning point for millennials, who are outgrowing a constant need to be plugged in."

"This is how it goes now, in what is being christened the twilight of an era of social media that redefined community building and digital correspondence. For many first-gen social media users—millennials between the ages of 27 and 42—there is a developing sentiment that the party is over."
