I just can't help but think about all of those HBCUs that withheld class yesterday due to threats of violence from people that thought that it was a good idea to blame all black people for a shooter that took place in Orem, Utah at a public event in the daylight.

How anti-bike propaganda uses psychological tricks to defend car supremacy.
TL;DR: Next time you read anti-bike propaganda, spot these tricks:
- False choices
- Fear-mongering
- Topic shifting
- Tradition worship
- Strategic omissions
Remember: Streets are for PEOPLE. Some just happen to be in cars

Thread.
something important I learned today: structurally, bluesky isn't really "a website where people post things"
Instead, each *user* is effectively a website. Bluesky is an app for posting to your site and managing/following your web ring.
Which is cool and clever! but can also be *very dangerous*

I actually don't fully know the answer to this question but it seems like no, there isn't much barrier?
