Fucking insane - I hope we can find a way to switch to Ranked Choice Voting and overturn Citizens United.

Sure! It has been a couple years since my last build, but I found a lot of great information on a website called endless-sphere. I also only use a battery supplier called EM3EV - they fuse each cell and generally have great quality packs. Bikes-direct also has quality bike platforms for builds, including fat tire bikes.

A former mentor of mine, and I found it rather compelling the more I reflected on the implications.

An Indigogo electric bike campaign... 10 years ago. It was a scam and I lost a lot of money. Subsequently I have built 5 e-bikes on my own and do not regret it, they are wonderful. But, no crowd-funding for me, ever again. Also, I am anti pre-ordering anything in general.

Never tie your identity to something that can be taken away. Re: job title, salary, perceived status. Your self perceived identity should have a much more stable foundation.

War on drugs certainly is not the answer to problem. Education & harm reduction, decriminalization, and supply-side testing (re: no accidental fent in your coke) would be a welcomed cultural shift forward. Prohibition will only continue to dig us deeper with folks in prison, murder, and underground trafficking schemes.

Some great topics about the arts in long-form conversations. The specific episode linked is with Tom Hank's and begins with his earliest memories of music. Just thought I'd share since the podcast seems to be fairly new.

Cheers

I've poked around and haven't found/figured out a way to change the arrow sizes on their own. I'd enjoy the ability to change the arrow sizes without modifying other values. If this is already possible I apologize for the post, if it is in the works then thanks! And of course, thanks for this wonderful app!
