Anti-fascist, anti-MAGA, anti-Trump. Urbanism, density, public transit, & active mobility solve a lot of ills. Bikes are awesome whether for transport, recreation, or racing. Sports watching: Bike races and Baltimore Ravens.

Senator, a reminder that Adeel Mangi was nominated for this seat & Chuck Schumer was so weak & unmotivated that he couldn’t get his caucus to confirm him because he was Muslim. He then made a deal with his β€œRepublican friends” to give up the seat & here we are. When are u going to dump Schumer?

In case there were any doubts how the β€œbusiness genius” managed to bankrupt casinos …

Wow. β€œEco-mobility, on the other hand, often ignores the most important components of cycling: joy, movement, and fitness.” <β€” this is someone who has never ridden a bike for transport.

Did you read the second part of his post? Do you drive to the trailhead AND β€œfeel strongly that anyone one an e-bike is a cheater or that folks who ride for transit aren't real cyclists?”

Why is driving to the gym or the movie theater or to a park or to any other β€œnon-work recreation destination” more acceptable to you than me riding to the countryside and back to enjoy some non-work recreation?

Thank you! I will check out those two systems.

Not sure what you mean? How would you structure the House to reflect a popular vote? Just trying to understand, not arguing!

Thanks for this. Shouldn’t the lower right box say β€œForeign tariff rate > US” instead of β€œ<β€œ?

While he’s Independent, he’s just like the Dems who think the Republican senators are their β€œcolleagues” who can be trusted, even though they stab them in the back every chance they get. Idiots.

You know she wanted to use the n-word so badly there. It was on the tip of her racist tongue.

Let me guess: you still don’t believe we are in a Constitutional crisis.

Which is another example of how much UAE mismanaged the race. With Wout in there, the normal move would have been for UAE to work to keep the breakaway within 5 or so minutes leading into the Finestre, to decrease the chances of Wout getting over the top before Simon …

Do you really believe Fox did not show the β€œmass deportation now” signs from the GOP convention? Did you yourself forget about that?

The two most important on-the-record instances of where Rubio stood was when he voted to acquit Trump in the impeachment trials. Why wouldn’t Dem senators - and you if you were β€œin their shoes” - consider this enough to disqualify him?

22.05.2025 16:24 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Easy: he voted to acquit Donald Trump in both impeachment trials, when Trump was clearly guilty.

I love it, congrats to all of these cities. I was going to ask why Austin wasn't on the list, but they were 2023. I believe they are still the largest city in the US to abolish parking minimums.

I’d love to hear the cops defend this. They are basically saying it’s ok to run over cyclists with impunity????

Entire article on pro-natalism and not one mention of Great Replacement Theory. This and the miss on the Nazi ties tells me Caroline Kitchener is either incompetent or complicit. Or her editors are. Either way, another sign of how bad The NY Times is.

Any idea how to watch the Amstel Gold men’s race in the US? I’m trying to practice my religion in the US but I’m being oppressed. πŸ˜‚ Women’s race was great (FloBikes) but now I want the men’s race!

I honestly think this was probably some conservatives talking about β€œthey’ll probably ban β€˜brown-bag lunch’ next” & someone ran with that until an Atlantic writer acted like it was fact.

Some would describe me as a β€œwoke lib” & I worked for β€œwoke corporations” & never have even heard of the supposed bans on the words β€œbreastfeeding” & β€œbrown bag lunch.” Can you give me an example of your company banning those terms?

I think @chatterton.bsky.social is reporting from the front lines of cocktail parties, not the real world.

Was thinking just this today when Arunburu DQ was going to decrease the Schachman GC lead by 2”. It really should be 10”-5”-2”. Such an easy fix to properly align incentives.

They don’t want there to be a vote because they don’t want to be on the record for either defying Trump (which will piss off Trump) or voting to keep the tariffs (which will piss of voters). This is a way to try to hope the problem goes away without them having to be on the record.

Of course! Will do. Thanks for caring. 😊
