Alt text: A post on X by Brianna Wu reads: “Trans sisters. I’m pretty sure I was wrong. I am sorry. I genuinely thought that as a trans woman, if I ceded some points with the gender critical crowd we could have a healthier conversation and arrive at better public policy. The problem is, they are getting crazier and more extreme. If you admit ‘trans women don’t belong in women’s sports,’ they agree, but call you a man the whole time. If you admit, ‘I understand I am a biological man, but this is how I want to live my life and talking about me like this is degrading,’ they scream about free speech. If you admit that hurtful language is part of free speech but you don’t have to associate with people that degrade you, they act like the victim and call you a man and then say you should be thrown in an insane asylum. It’s like this on everything. They are incapable of looking for a middle ground on bathrooms. They want maximalist policies on everything. They’d throw a fully transitioned, fully passing trans woman in male prison genpop and laugh as she got aids from being raped. I want a middle ground on so many of these policies. BUT THE FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM IS THEY DO NOT. They enjoy degrading us, it’s fun for them. So, sisters. I genuinely don’t know what to do. I think many of our most extreme ideas are bad. But theirs are worse. So if I have to pick, I choose us. I wish there were a political vehicle for compromise and medical safeguarding. But that just simply does not exist.” The post timestamp reads 6:52 AM, Nov 1, 2025, with 39.6K views.

WHAT DO YOU THINK WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL YOU???!!!

The amount of morbidly obese drivers i see in Chicago makes me chuckle. It just takes one step to just commute actively for them to change their lives that I will whole heartedly commend them for and encourage them to keep doing because it helps them and all of us, truly.

Love us

Love me

This is a great plot line for a horror sci fi movie. 😒

The sound of your breath would tell me my heart's beating at 175bpm in the level 5 zone of my wahoo computer. 🤣 beautiful views!!

Citric acid. Just makes my mouth water.

Die SA und die SS in den NaziUSA . Das ist erschreckend. Bilder wie 1933 in Deutschland

This is such grotesque abuse of power that demands immediate calls for impeachment.

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

"Jones, 27, is among the residents left at 7500 S. South Shore Drive who are trying to piece together what remains after an early morning, high-powered federal immigration raid led to the arrests of dozens of their neighbors at their South Shore apartment building."

Tell him his opinion has zero value and it's why he's biking alone with zero friends. 🤣

Wow they really are just scapegoating. Fucking garbage.

My god I'm such an impatient cooker. I just wanna eat the food already and I'm not even hungry. 🤤

When I want to just scroll endless bike videos i can do that easily on IG. I really wish it wasn't owned by Oligzuck.

I've been using Instagram a lot recently over the past couple of months. I feel the platform's ability to convey stories goes really well in combination with the ability to upload video that retains its quality and can have music dubbed into it. Blue Sky feels a bit more mundane to visit.

*Hides the fact that sometimes she travels with 3000wh*

Yeah 1600 sounds cool.

I'm more of a middle finger, wink, and stick tongue out gal myself. 😜

A flyer with a purple and pink background. Large white and pink text at the top reads: “CALLING ALL CHICAGO BIKERS! HELP US SUPPORT A FEMMES N THEMS CORE ORGANIZER.” Smaller white text on the left says: “Our beloved Femmes & Thems member Haley broke both of their arms on one of their favorite group rides. We ask the community to come together to support them in their recovery. Direct funds sent to Haley’s venmo are the most helpful. You can find it here:” Below, in large white and pink text: “@HSTORM78934” At the bottom left, smaller text: “@FEMNTHEMBIKECHI” On the right side of the flyer, there is a photo of a person smiling while holding a decorated bicycle with bright purple lights. They are wearing a knit hat, glasses, a white t-shirt, patterned pants, and a backpack, standing in front of a black iron fence.

Calling on all Chicago bikers! A beloved member of the Chicago bike community (and a Femmes + Thems core organizer) took a spill at Critical Mass on Friday and was badly injured. Because both of their arms are broken, they are not able to do most self care tasks, let alone work.

Rodriguez (Arc Music fest) listed on MIA report as OUT for Critical Mass August.

Gonna miss y'all. Hopefully I can still hear after tonight is over. 🤣

It's quite telling how much time I have spent playing final fantasy 8 and 9 over the past month by how little I'm on social media now and I absolutely approve. 😆 thank you Nintendo for making it super easy to get back into playing these games and other classics. Oh how I missed them.

😬

That cyclist may have looked like me but was not me.

Some double parked driver accidentally lost part of their mirror today when a cyclist was trying to squeeze through them and car traffic and accidentally nudged their mirror with their handlebars while trying to squeeze through at low speed. 🤭 Cyclists have died going around so don't do it. 😑
