Absolutely, the most sociopathic response to bike lanes: the idea that people should always feel unsafe riding a bike.

I just saw someone riding a motorized wheelchair in the bus lane on Lake St... presumably because the curb cuts are making the sidewalks impassable.

The bus lane is probably safer than general traffic lane, but everything about it is so unfair and a major accessibility issue.

ICE w identical plates at Cedar this morning.

Hmm. It’s really *interesting * that ICE are behaving similarly to the people who terrorized the twin cities during the George Floyd uprisings. Wonder what that’s about

An astonishing percentage of Americans are open to car-free living.

The problem isn't attitudes. The problem is the failure to invest in viable options.

It really is! Figuring out how to bike all year was a key thing made it feasible for me to avoid replacing my car when it started getting unreliable.

Same!

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Seems like a perfect low stakes opportunity for Chief O'Hara to put his money where his, "the MPD will stop any unlawful actions," mouth is. Doesn't seem like they were anywhere to be found though.

The amount some road ragers get upset that I take the lane on my bike where I am still moving and then they're okay doing this themselves. These jerks deprive so many people from learning time and time with friends and family.

My daughter’s school bus was delayed this morning because armed ICE agents, some masked, were in the middle of 15th Ave in Cedar Riverside. So why wouldn’t ICE just get out of the way when the bus came? Perhaps they were busy harassing Somali-Americans, who are overwhelmingly citizens. But... (1/4)

#mspcyclecast S 2nd St bikeway skim coat of snow with berms at intersections. S 3rd Ave bike lanes mostly inaccessible and MPD parked in it by 4th St where the bollards are missing. In general buffered bike lanes where the delineators are missing aren't plowed but plowed where they're there. 2/2

#mspcyclecast as of 6:30am: S Cleveland bike lanes are marginally useful again. Marshall Ave bus/bike lane packed pretty good with a skim coat of snow. W River Pkwy from Lake to 13th Ave skim coat of packed snow/ice with patches of dry pavement. 1/2

stuff like this reminds me of how frustrating it is that the lesson some people took from the george floyd uprising was that minneapolis is some horrible racist place, instead of seeing that minneapolis is also a place where people stand up and do something when shit goes down

san antonio has a publicly owned energy utility, and after the great freeze, while other texans had utility bills that were thousands of dollars, CPS stretched our costs over the next 10 years, so no one got more than an added dollar of charges

publicly owned utilities and co-ops are where it’s at

“Only the bike industry would look at Americans glued to cars and video games and think, ‘Yes… what they need is a carbon race machine, not a bike that carries groceries.’”

WOW. So this is obviously a huge violation of this man's rights, and it illustrates a few things we're seeing broadly:

- DHS officers are ignoring peoples' IDs and instead requiring screening through their own systems
- Confirms @404media.co's reports of use of DHS's facial recognition app.

lol this isn’t great

Brett Kavanaugh's "minor inconvience" now includes beating people up and cutting off their wedding rings for [checks notes] "observing ICE from a distance."

We live better than any kings in history. We have machines that make our lives easier. We have antibiotics, in door pumbling, and the internet. We can speak to the otherside of the planet in real time and have put people on the moon.

You telling me there isnt enough to go around?

deport violent criminals but by "violent criminals" i mean ICE

Sometimes people are like "aren't you worried about the kids and their nonsensical new brainrot memes"

But like, the thing is, I can still spot a member of my internet generation by how they respond to "badger badger badger badger"

Playing with language and rhythm is fun, it'll be fine!

Do you have a whistle? Are you whistle trained? Is everyone in your house (above age idk 10?) trained ?
(my dogs don’t like it!)

Form a crowd stay loud. Tell targeted neighbors to stay inside when they hear whistles & don’t open the door.

On the johnson street shared use path

Late night ride back from City Hall after unanimously approving the 2026 budget. Grateful to have an escort up johnson as it was getting plowed!

Winter is the best argument against on street, not separated bike lanes in my opinion.
