A long tail cargo bike with the Life After Cars books and chocolate bar resting on the pannier. Of course a parked car is in the background because free street parking is a plague 🙄

Holding the book open to ‘How we get free’ with an oat milk bar and a cargo bike and bike lane in the background.

So happy to bike by my local independent bookstore to get Life After Cars and chocolate.

Having just cycled in the city I’m starting with half a bar & Part III: How we get free. @thewaroncars.bsky.social

A hand holds a 'Manhattan votes early' sticker (featuring an Empire State Building) in front of the city skyline with the Empire State Building in the background.

A beautiful day to vote early. 🗳️

Plastic bag with a hole ripped open containing smaller bags and lumps of stuff on a granite ledge with a black fence directly behind. Wide angle view.

Plastic bag with a whole ripped open containing smaller bags and lumps of stuff on a granite ledge with a black fence directly behind. Zoomed in view.

Grueling semester so far but I’ve picked up a new hobby: Sandwich bag.

Someone/something left this bag containing food on an inaccessible ledge outside my lab. All we can do is wait/observe…

Day 34: possible mold developing, the weight still firmly on the edge, wind gusts predicted tonight.

Cyclists are humans who just want to get around without dying

Seven bikes of varying size (including an electric cargo bike and two kids bikes) in a garage ready for adventures.

I’ve always wanted a 7 bike garage 🚲

@nypost.com buried the lede 🤦🏼‍♀️

Amazing work with meaningful signs in Chemistry & Climate Change

This is missing career track.

Non-tenure track careers are often ignored or treated as second-class when there are many roles in our academic ecosystem.

A summer Sunday @ 5ish pm, my money’s on a GRC. Was at one two weeks ago where everyone described the dorm beds as having ‘prison mattresses’. Luckily the talks, colleagues, and meals were all great.

Now he’s riding circles around the old Amtrak hall

7:55 am, Penn Station. The men’s bathroom door opens and a guy rides out on a Citibike.

Peak NYC 🚲

These are not accidents, the nature outcome of a system that deprioritizes anyone not in a car.

Finally a candidate who will say this. 🙌🏻

Emailing an academic email with this phishing attempt is hilarious

Blue backpack with a book and four adorable stuffed animals peeking out – happy to be reunited with their fourth grader

Child’s backpack left in cab, awesome driver brought it to the precinct, tracked backpack and got the bag back. Precious stuffed animals and homework recovered.

I ❤️ NYC

The Mayoral Race & Transportation | The Brian Lehrer Show | WNYC Nicole Gelinas and Dave Colon on the mayoral candidates' proposals for mass transit and for managing the "chaos" of use of streets by pedestrians, two-wheeled vehicles, and cars.

@thebrianlehrershow.bsky.social you've given air-time to @galebrewernyc.bsky.social's anti-bike rhetoric, yesterday's show demonstrated how biased some NYC journalists are. Pls host @transalt.org for a discussion of safe/equitable/sustainable streets. #CitiesAreForPeople

Gothamist headline: NYC rolls out modern garbage trucks in Harlem, latest step towards containerizing trash Photo below shows an entire trash container being lifted to empty the contents into the truck.

Small but meaningful ray of hope over here: new containerized trash garbage trucks.

Climate scientists are hosting a 100-hour YouTube livestream in response to Trump's research funding cuts "We really felt like the American public deserves to know what we do."

Climate scientists do critical work.

Here are 100 hours to learn how dangerous it is to cut this research:

This mocking bird started visiting us multiple times a day. He’s noisy, digs in my pots, and brings friends sometimes.

A handsome guy riding a cargo bike in a bike lane with three trees sticking out of the pannier.

So many things I love in one photo.

Thanks NY Restoration project for yet another awesome tree giveaway 🌳

Signs saying “25 hour speak out- to defend academic freedom, student safety & science”, “protect or teaching”, “protect our students”

Drake hotline bling meme: First image shows Drake turning away in disgust to "office fridge is out of half and half" The second image shows Drake pleased with "Finding the Nido you hid in your desk supplies."

Solidarity with all my academic colleagues who are burning the candle at both ends to get through the last few weeks of the semester. #Coffee #IteachChem

Project photos and descriptions to come!

Orange soda, Mountain Dew, Red Bull, and a bottle of solid sodium hydroxide on a bench with beakers of each solution. In the background is a pH sensor submerged in a beaker of orange drink under an apparatus to count drops as titrant is added to the beaker below.

All the projects feature Vernier probes & have gone through lit searches, peer-reviews, safety planning, & navigation collaboration. A first dip into the research process for many of these students.

We’re taking 142 students through 39 unique investigations over 4 busy laboratory sessions.

Red, yellow, and blue tape lined up in front of rows of correspondingly colored solutions that start out light [dilute] and increase in their color intensity as they become more concentrated.

Final project week again & it’s so lovely to see students creatively craft investigations linking Gen Chem Lab topics to their non-lab lives. #IteachChem

Three book covers: Days at the Morisaki Bookshop, More days at the Morisaki bookshop, and the dye out in Nov 2025: Days at the Torunka Cafe. Shown as screenshots of the Libby library lending app.

👀 what’s this I see?? It looks like a third book is headed our way soon.

I highly recommend this delightful series - a nice break from doom scrolling. 📚
