I like cats and dogs and politics and cities and bikes.
This is the ideal male Saturday night. You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

@cjzero.bsky.social any chance you have this play from about 2 minutes left in the first half of the SJSU-Air Force game?
Well SJSU threw a pass from their end zone that was immediately deflected then caught by a SJSU player who was immediately tackled for a safety and now Air Force gets to run a 2-minute drill instead. Air Force has 138 rush yards and zero pass yards today.

@sickoscommittee.org reporting live from San José State’s homecoming game against Air Force. The band just played “Do you know the way to San José?”

Man, I used to avoid shopping at Publix because of this. Leave me alone when I’m shopping. I’ll ask you if I need something.
"Store employees are now required to smile if they are within 10 feet of a shopper.

They also must make eye contact with and wave to or greet the customer.

If they’re within four feet, the employee should ask how the customer’s day is going or if they need help."

🙄 Won't stop the boycott, y'all.
Target is now requiring its employees to smile more
As the holiday season fast approaches, Target is urging its employees to add a little more “jolly” to their work routine.

The Atlanta Beltline Eastside Trail construction site circa 2012. Yeah I was muddy when I got home from the bars but I needed a shower anyway cause they all were full of cigarette smoke back then.
What was a good transit service or piece of bike infrastructure that opened up your world when you were younger?

For me the C&O Canal Path and the Capital Crescent Trail helped me feel like I could bike pretty much anywhere when I was in my early teens

Why does he have all the same mannerisms as Bernie Sanders?? 😭
Sean Dunn, aka DC Sandwich Guy, speaks outside court after his not guilty verdict:

“I am so happy that justice prevails in spite of everything….

“That night I believe I was protecting the rights of immigrants…

Every life matters, no matter where you came from, no matter how you got here…”

Sorry for using reserved front-row seats for people with additional needs to sit and breastfeed my baby, in a packed city council meeting about whether to upzone my neighborhood for more young people and families.

Oh wait--no I'm not.
At a meeting about whether we're going to build housing for young families like us. An elderly NIMBY got mad at @alanakinrich.medsky.social for 'being distracting' by breastfeeding our baby in the reserved seats in the front. In case you're wondering who they think should be part of this process.

Reminder to all San Franciscans: First Thursdays are for Downtown, not for whoever is annoying you online.

SF YIMBY is proud to endorse @scottwiener.bsky.social in his historic Congressional bid! The YIMBY movement would not be anywhere near where it is today if not for the work and influence of Scott Wiener.

a really key point here. Cuomo's attempt at gutter Islamophobic race baiting failed because Dem voter opinion on Israel-Palestine has shifted more than 70 points since 2023, and he somehow didn't notice prospect.org/2025/11/04/a...

My dad ran for political office once and lost pretty soundly. He hangs his hat on the local paper’s political reporter calling his concession speech the most gracious they’d ever heard.
Cuomo gave a fairly graceless concession speech, and Mamdani rips his skin off:

"My friends, we have toppled a political dynasty. I wish Andrew Cuomo the best in private life. But let tonight be the last time I mention his name."

Watching Zohran’s speech now and his NY accent really comes out when he’s shouting into a microphone.

A San Francisco horror story:
I went out tonight. I brought a sweatshirt and a puffy jacket. I didn’t need either of them. Just carrying them around like an idiot.

Just saw an NC State fan holding a sign that said “Georgia Tech? More like Georgia Wreck!” And that’s what’s making my eyes bleed, not GT’s defense.

You know how they say the Olympics should have a normal guy compete to give a baseline? Here’s how a D1 athlete from another sport does as QB against a bad team.

The big red sign says STOP on it. Not slow down a little.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?
