Here it is, your #Bluesky #Bike Content of the Day for Tuesday, 2/3/26. Just love the genuine pride of ownership. Brompton’s rock. I test rode one years ago, but, the fully extended seat post still had me feeling like a circus monkey. Apparently, they have seat posts for taller riders these days

Nothing like purging and dismantling your State Department before drawing the entire Middle East into conflict.

Yes, they can stop our side (and should have reigned in our President and SecDef a long time ago), but, they can’t stop Iran. Hence the incentive to attack first and β€œconsult” later. We really need to get a handle on the whole war powers thing now that we’ve twice elected a complete psycho

AI Eisenhower? I am suspect of any Flag or General Officer who survived Hegseth’s purge and this does nothing to lessen that suspicion -

Like other commenters, I, in no way, support this current fiasco, but, Iran was a major supplier of IED’s throughout the past two decades -

US says it wouldn't deliberately target a school after Iran said over 160 killed in strike Secretary of State Marco Rubio said U.S. forces "would not deliberately target a school" after Iranian state media reported over 160 were killed in a strike on a ​girls' school on the first day of the...

Even a vile monster such as Hegseth probably wouldn’t intentionally target a school. But, this is what you do when you purge military leadership of its best and brightest, treat ROE like a dirty word, and freeze out the JAGs -

So far we’ve heard 12 different primary reasons for the war, 7 different main objectives, and 5 different exit strategies.

Everything he touches, turns to shit: our military, the White House itself, casinos, hotels, every U.S. agency, the USFL, Trump U, Trump Steaks, Olympic Hockey, Olympic anything, the Kennedy Center, the Arts, toilets, the Village People, the Today Show, pageants, the Clintons, what am I missing?

Bahrain strikes raise questions on how US can deal with Iran retaliation Iran's strike on US Navy base in Bahrain will worry Washington and its allies in the region.

Not heartless - quite rational. We cannot trust U.S. media because it has been corrupted, co-opted, and consumed. The UK still has a functioning press, though, so I look there for international affairs coverage -

Every single American. We all know that he is cognitively impaired and never had much ability to engage in strategic thought in the first place. So, who’s really behind this? Hegseth? Miller? (It’s, pretty much, always Miller) Or, is it Bibi himself - who is practically a Trump cabinet member?

Here it is, your #Bluesky #Bike Content of the Day for Saturday, 2/28/26. Yesterday we reveled in bad bike rack design, but, here’s a great little primer on what makes for a useful bike rack.

If you really want to know what’s going on in the Middle East rn, bypass American media. Here’s some actual reporting:

Yup - pro wrestling is at the top of the trending list ad missiles and drones are flying all over the Middle East -

Neither of whom understood that Iran has the capability to hit Fifth Fleet Headquarters and just did.

I am not ok with us going to war on the whim of one man. A β€œpre-emptive” Israeli action where our President is citing the 1979 hostage crisis as a justification? We have no Congress.

??? This post is not about those things. It’s about retractable leashes. And, then, the only thing implied is that ER Vets see a lot of patients injured by those leashes. Shooting your healthy dog in the head in a gravel pit is also a bad thing, but, has nothing to do with this post.

So, those are things that wind up getting a dog into a veterinary ER?

My cousin is a Vet, who started out doing pet urgent care. Always says that if he could ban one thing it would be those damned leashes.

Here it is, your #Bluesky #Bike Content of the Day for Thursday, 2/26/26. It’s amazing the stuff that us bike commuters and transportation cyclists encounter every single day that we just accept as part of the deal. It’s actually, harrowing, life- threatening, stuff -
