Cartoon entitled "Road Positioning" and subtitled "Times when it might be safer to cycle in the middle of the lane". There are four illustrated examples 1. Approaching road narrowings where it would be unsafe for drivers to overtake e.g. traffic islands etc 2. In slower-moving traffic. Keeps you visible. You can move over to the left again if the traffic speeds up. 3. Where there are parked cars and a car door might be opened. 4. On quiet roads. Keeps you away from various hazards found in the gutter.

People who cycle are often accused of cycling "in the middle of the road".

What they really mean of course is cycling in the middle of the lane, and there are lots of good reasons why people do this, explained succinctly in this @davewalker.bsky.social cartoon for @cyclinguk.bsky.social

Finn is a silly goose who sometimes gets over excited but damn doesn't this little dude come in clutch during rough therapy sessions. He did an excellent job of helping to ground me during a very stressful EMDR session.

Me - I'm going to get up and clean.

Thomas Salamus - You spelled cuddle wrong.

I will never understand how people are so willing to sacrifice cyclists and pedestrians in favor of cars.

A gift to the NRA.

Help! 🙀 We are rolling full steam ahead into kitten season & have over 200 hungry mouths to feed across our foster homes! We are very low on both adult dry/wet food, & kitten dry/wet food, as well as of other essential supplies, such as materials for day-to-day cleaning, storage & trapping.

If you hate trump but think the left has gone too far then it is only a matter of time until you support trump

Wow, they really doubled down on that shit.

Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

Yesterday's and today's records.

If you heard these 7 phrases as a child, you were raised by people who weren’t ready to be parents We all remember the phrases our parents used to say to us as children—some of them endearing, others not so much. But have you ever stopped to ponder about the messages behind those words? You see, he...

I don't recall getting "I do everything for you " but I got every other one of these. It's no surprise to me that my parents weren't ready to be parents. I'm grateful I was born but they should have never had children.

I watched these movies yesterday at Rowhouse Theater. It was time very well spent.

I walked 2 blocks this morning. In that time I was almost backed into by a minivan who didn't look before throwing it in reverse and hit by a UPMC valet driver who rolled up after I started across a driveway entrance. What the fuck?!

b/w person riding a bike on pink background. Oh im sorry did my headphones make you drive into me?

So sorry.

What is Crush the Commonwealth? It's a ride from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia or vice versa on alternating years. This year I'm attempting to do about a quarter of it, 85 miles in one day to raise money for @trashcatrescue.org. There are some great rewards if you donate!
