If we build it (protected, connected & maintained bike infrastructure), the bikes will come. Even when it’s cold (this was at 24°F), even when it’s snowy & icy. On a 5 block walk along Bryant tonight I saw 7 people on bikes, 6 pedestrians and 4 cars (all w/ 1 passenger each).

We do not discuss — in fact, we actively forget — that the US has only had real democracy (however imperfect) since circa 1965, with the passage of the Voting Rights and Civil Rights acts… and there’s been an active backlash ever since.

When you’re dealing with someone who causes harm and you suggest ignoring them, there’s an overlooked cruelty to that approach — it shuts down the conversation for the people harmed. It denies people the space to be heard, which is important for progress and justice

🍄📸 Can the internet explain why the chicken of the woods grow every year on the grass instead of at the base or near trees? Or is this just as common? There used to be a large white pine near and there is a fairy ring each year a great distance circling where the stump was.

Went to Natural Bridges State Park in Santa Cruz today and was delighted to see a healthy number of monarchs wintering there.

Just a reminder with the holiday season approaching: If you offer someone a drink and they say, "No thanks, I don't drink" the correct response is not, "Why not?" or "Come on, just one!" or anything else like that. The only correct response is, "No worries. Can I get you anything else?"

i’m looking at alt text on all these trans people’s “favorite pics” posts & it’s just so wholesome to see people—who were, i’m gonna assume, a lot like me & not born with a competitive advantage in being kind to themselves—describing themselves so kindly & looking so goddamn happy in a bleak world.

the turkey 'pardon' implies that turkeys have, by virtue of their very existence, committed a sin worthy of capital punishment. this is of course theological nonsense because there are no intrinsically evil birds, except for swans.
