wearing sunglasses inside and following an event where he at times had a hard time speaking coherently, Elon Musk walks off the CPAC stage waving around a chain saw. this is the guy currently running our government. Congrats, America!

One of the arguments against parking reform is that people are afraid builders will actually use the flexibility to build more homes. Yes. That's exactly what we're hoping for.

If somebody asked me what I would do if I were 12 today it's probly be ride bikes with my friends. What a nerd.

SCOOP @bloomberg.com: Top officials at the US Department of Homeland Security received a memo from Sec. Kristi Noem on Friday ordering an immediate stop to work connected to climate change and the elimination of climate-related terms across the agency. Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Bike Twerk #winterbiketoworkday #bikesky

Life hack: Go to your local bike shop and buy a new or used bicycle. Put fenders, rack, and panniers on it. Ride it for every commute under five miles. Groceries, arends, everything. Keep at it.

If someone told you the Gulf of Mexico's new name was the 'Gulf of America' and you immediately started using it, then you are very capable of respecting people's names and pronouns. 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

Bernie Sanders to Mike Lee: "You use 'climate alarmism.' The 10 last years are warmest ever recorded. We are seeing massive extreme weather disturbances all over the world, not just in the US You think that's alarmism? Or is it a reality that climate change is an enormous threat to this planet?"

Why we have a pedestrian fatality crisis ⬇️ Another pickup truck running a red light. #safestreets #bikesky

How embarrassing!

"Cycling is not a practical daily travel option for most people." In 2022, 26% of car trips in the UK were shorter than 1 mile, and 71% were under 5 miles. A 5-mile bike ride takes around 30 minutes. Provide people with the option to cycle and build more safe infrastructure

Unlike Elon Musk and the DOGE, we know what it’s like to actually work for a living. And we’re not going to let one unaccountable billionaire rig the government for himself. That’s where we come in. We’re the Department of People Who Work for a Living. deptofpeoplewhowork.org

Off to spend about 8 hours pretending climate and society aren't collapsing. #bikesky

How are y'all dealing with the cognitive dissonance of much of your daily life continuing as normal right now even as really really really bad shit is happening in government (that will certainly have ripple effects that will reach us all)? Because I'm honestly feeling a little insane right now.

NEW - Ottawa Senators fans booed the American national anthem at the beginning of tonight’s hockey game.

I know that all these institutions know how to push back because when Obama directed them to enforce pre-existing Title IX law, universities said no. They flat out refused until there was a working group and specific guidelines. And even then, they *still* refused.

​The top story on every US media outlet is the crash at National Airport, where 67 people died. Meanwhile, 67 Americans die in car crashes every 15 hours The DCA crash is clearly front-page news. Maybe we should give America's road safety crisis the same treatment.

New report concludes that Right-on Red is deadly: ROR "is generally unsafe for pedestrians, bicyclists, and drivers." "Right-turn collisions at signalized intersections were responsible for over 39k collisions and 217 fatalities between 2011–2022 in California." transweb.sjsu.edu/sites/defaul...

Not gonna lie I did kinda expect our Democratic politicians to have something like a plan to counter the 920-page detailed fascist blueprint that was published in April 2023
