More than 48 hours after the snow stopped, one of the busiest bike lanes in the system impassable or dangerous in large swaths.

Flushing Ave continuation of Kent Ave bike lane. It ends after I almost fell on ice and started biking in the road. #bikenyc @nyc-dot.bsky.social @nyc.streetsblog.org

Kent Ave, Brooklyn near Clymer St. This is a two-way bike lane. #bikenyc @nycdot.bsky.social @nyc.streetsblog.org

The (few) usable stretches of the 3rd Ave bike lane (Brooklyn) look like this. Sidewalk not cleared, so people walking in the bike lane. Mostly biked in the road on the way to work. #bikenyc @nyc-dot.bsky.social @nycsanitation.bsky.social

3rd Ave bike lane (so-called Brooklyn Greenway) unusable this morning. Some stretches cleared 1 lane wide in a 2 lane path but sidewalk not cleared so people walking in it.

Yesterday (storm) no bike lanes were cleared except for the bridges #bikenyc @nyc-dot.bsky.social @nycsanitation.bsky.social

Hey @nycdot.bsky.social how come these trucks are parked in the 9th St draw bridge bike lane every day and how come you power wash the bridge every day during business hours backing up traffic for miles? #bikenyc #gowanus

The only thing that stops me from subscribing to Hopium is that you never mention Gaza. To me that is the main factor in Biden not getting elected. His stance on it lead to general malaise in the younger population. Many didn't vote because of it or voted for Jill Stein.

Someone hit this guy on Flatbush last night and pushed his parked car into the bike lane. #bikenyc

If you ever wonder why people are switching to Shopify from @wordpress.org / @woocommerce.com, here’s one. Plugin update 9.6 has a known fatal error in certain configurations, no resolution time given. Updates since then:
.1 new Woo logo
.2 Secondary color CSS variable fix

I found another set of pics from 12/18/2024 1pm. Cops parked at the same spot in the Schermerhorn St bike lane, this time in the van eating lunch. @nypd.bsky.social #bikenyc License 1968.19

Apparently the Tin Building is losing $100K a day. No surprise.

Cop parked in the Queens Blvd bike lane at 63rd Rd. I think he was looking for intersection violations but maybe just chilling #bikenyc @nypd-news.bsky.social

I was disappointed in these Lady Wong special occasion cakes. One was ube and the other a pandan royaltine. The flavors were odd - pandan sort of like toothpaste - and the textures not particularly compelling. I couldn't finish a slice of either. #nycfood

Today I finally checked Ukus, an Astoria, Queens Bosnian restaurant off my list.

The food was great (and legit according to my Bosnian friend). We ate a lot: cevapi (2), 2 different pies, veal liver, salad, yogurt dip (2), fluffy homemade bread, stuffed cabbage.
