A reminder that every candidate who President Obama endorsed won their elections on Tuesday whilst the orange felon’s atrocious candidates all lost. 💙👊

We know Mike, we know!

With the government shut down, flights cancelled, and hungry people going without SNAP benefits, Trump leaves his newly gilded palace for another weekend of golf and parties in Palm Beach.

As they say, "Run what you brung." I've ridden all my bikes on gravel: road, CX, MTB, fat bike.

Luce Line is the best regional trail!

I'm riding a cyclocross bike (Cervelo R5-CX) with a 1x12, bluetooth shifting drivetrain. I use it for riding gravel, racing CX, and bikepacking. Love that bike!

Lots of sun light and fall colors on the Luce Line Regional Trail on Wednesday afternoon.

No way! Congrats on getting started! I know how hard that can be because I used to be a serial procrastinator. I still procrastinate, just not as much.

Were you riding a bike on that on that beautiful gravel road?

The majority of SNAP recipients are children, elderly, or disabled people. The majority of working age non-disabled people on SNAP are employed or were employed in the previous year, or become employed the following year. Of those who do work, the largest proportion work in education and healthcare.

It certainly was, and I was in a really good mood because I had just completed a fellowship application (first one ever). Precious moments.

St Anthony Main in Minneapolis on a cloudy fall night. Magic in the air.

I am also wondering about Repubics percentage in Congress vs their US percentage, but this graph explains why most feel our present Congress is so out of touch with the majority.

Blessed….

Images of Trump and Bruce Springsteen. One says, "CON, and the other says, "ICON."

Any questions?

A stock photo for an article by Fortune with the headline Gen Z are increasingly becoming neets by choice, not in an employment education or training. The stock photo shows up girl with a short haircut reclining on a couch with her legs up over the arm and her body across the main portion of the couch. She is laying on the legs of an unseen friend. She wears a yellow sweater and blue jeans and is looking at a phone with a cord.

I don't have to read this to tell y'all it's rage bait & a lie.

Young people aren't broke on purpose but most of them are, education is unaffordable, jobs are increasingly unavailable, & yeah, people under the age of 25 often go thru a lot trying to find opportunities & pay, let alone passion.

Pedro Pascal: Fear is the way that they win.

Speaking from the Cannes Film Festival on his latest movie, Eddington, Pascal was asked if he was worried about re-entering the US after making a film with a strong political message.

This is the reality of Trump's America for those who speak out.

Boom Island in Nordeast Minneapolis is greening up!

There's a pair of cardinals living next door that my wife feeds every morning with seed on our patio. Beautiful birds.

Beautiful evening walk around Boom Island in Minneapolis.

I put together a great gravel road route yesterday with amazing flow from Cannon Falls, MN to Minneola, which apparently doesn't exist anymore. More than 80% gravel, mostly smooth.

the weirdos who insisted children were being abused in the basement of a pizza parlor with no basement sure are quiet in the face of actual trafficking

“Cycling is ten times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities.”

Simply the best!

I'm not sure any sizable group can even agree on a practical definition for communism since Marx's concept hasn't ever really been realized. Like all state-sponsored economic ideologies, it's been bastardized by those with all the power.

We have to have hope. That's the starting point.

I'm optimistic long-term, though. We'll create a better world that benefits virtually all.

We can have autonomous transportation, but it shouldn't be so big and deadly. Let's really look at the ratio of vehicle weight to human body weight.

When I looked out my windows, I just see a sea of cars parked outside homes, including my own. How did we get here?

The goal of the left is to destroy my influence. So they relentlessly push negative propaganda about me like the fake Nazi stuff and ignore anything positive. They are evil.

Empathy is for the weak nerd is crying that nobody is showing him empathy.

Serious incel school shooter vibes.

I think we're looking at Great Depression-level unemployment by the time this is over.

Hate has limited power.
