Fiddling with a minor bike repair this morning (rear fender was rubbing, couldn't figure out why/where), I learned the hard way not to stop a studded tire from spinning with my bare hand

It’s awesome to see this — but seriously, it’s so damn frustrating that we have to fight this fight in every city when the science couldn’t be clearer. Get the cars out, make more money for local shops, and build cities that are exciting, healthy, and happy for everyone.
It’s really important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of ACTUAL EVIDENCE that they’re better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced.
Safe bike-lanes mean business.

I was at the grocery store last minute purchasing candy for tonight when some loudmouth went off on how glad they were SNAP benefits were stopping.
Friends, I was so angry. I just gave two neighbours grocery gift cards because I know they use the program. Everyone deserves food.

I decided to get up and just read this morning instead of try to be "productive" or doomscroll. I used to do this all the time... going to try to do it more often.

“Criticism” has leaned too far into finding/fixing fault without acknowledging/enforcing merit, & this impacts some editing for the worse.
Positive feedback provides confidence & directional guidance towards strengths.
It is CRITICAL (ha!) to a functional critical partnership.

This thread by @hilaryagro.com is really worth reading, especially for my fellow men out there, as is the article she's discussing. But I'm sharing this post particulary for the link to her video: it's well worth your time, my dudes.
This is exactly why I made my YouTube video reaching out to men—it's beyond my capacity to help the ones quoted in this article but there are many more who haven't fully fallen into the pipeline yet, and they need understanding AND accurate political context for their pain:

If magazine teams were paid fairly and writer rates increased, mag budgets would be $200k+. Minimum.
If you can, subscribe. That’s regular, renewable revenue mags can use to plan for the future.
This industry is sustained on free labour and free content.
Passion is high, but so is burnout.

Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness (for the record I prefer the original Ray Vecchio, but Callum Keith Rennie did such a wonderful job of stepping in to replace not only an actor but an entire character that this duo also brings me joy)
