This dog gets it.
You can watch this gif in a loop and know that this actually went on for at least an hour. 😆

"Not Just Bikes" read the John Forester book so you didn't have to. Everyone should thank him for that, or at least watch his YouTube video about it.
The History Channel's "alien guy" meme with a guy wild hair, kind of looking stoned, with his hands up as if about to catch a ball with the caption "John Forester VC GOD"

I may have recognized who the person pictured here was by the Cleverhoods rain cape and bike. 😅

Dodger Stadium has 16,000 parking spots. That's $1,280,000 at $80 each per game.
Areal shot of Dodger stadium shoing the stadium itself and the surounding parking. You can have an additional 10 stadiums in the parking lots.

Did you get lost like @bikeyface.bsky.social?
Cartoon drawn by Bikeyface showing a woman eating a large piece of cake with a speech bubble saying "I love getting lost!" in reference to getting lost on a bike ride, thus burning extra calories allowing to eat a big piece of cake without guilt. :)

Overall pedestrian hit-and-run deaths have been on an increase over the years (25% in 2023). I'd think that non-fatal incidents are also increasing and probably higher than fatal ones.

Yeah, looks like there's some construction in the residential area with signs all over the place. There's a good chance signs contradict themselves too. A tragedy that could and should be avoided, sadly the investigation will result in zero changes.
Image of closed residential street with police vehicles and police line tape in the foreground and a dump truck in the background. There are also constructions signs. A child was killed here after being hit by a dump truck. Image of residential street with constructions signs. A child was killed after being hit by a dump truck.

I see what you're going for....
Image of a party with the walls covered in neon colours, people wearing neon colours and a black light highlights is all that much more. It's so visually 'busy' that it makes it hard to look at.

A spin on the phrase "work to live, not live to work".

The States aren't members of the International Criminal Court it gets worse from there. They might take military action against The Hague if any American is detained by the ICC.
Under the current administration, this entitles them to commit war crimes.
Source: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America...
The United States is not a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC). The American Service-Members' Protection Act authorizes the President of the United States to use "all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court". This authorization led to the act being nicknamed "The Hague Invasion Act",[4] since the act would allow the president to order military action in The Hague, the seat of the ICC, to prevent American or allied officials and military personnel from being prosecuted or detained by the ICC.[5]

Yup, all over the run off areas for errant drivers are also sidewalks ans bus stops. Can't have any immovable objects there as that is dangerous for drivers. People walking and waiting for busses is fine though.
Image od a road and sidewalk at a bus stop in winter. The sidewalk is highligted in red to indicate is is also a run off area for errant drivers, so no immovable objects can be placed there. There is also a yellow hightlighted area next to the red area, where there are trees.

Wonder why this driver for our of their car? Did you capture anything else at this moment?
Screen capture of a chaotic intersection under construction and even more chaotic drivers. One of the drivers gets out of their car (2nd in line at red light).

From your neighbours to the north, our health care system isn't perfect, but it's better for everyone.

Optional services or items, like a phone or specific meals. For Non-Residents Without Insurance Estimated Costs: Costs vary by province and type of delivery, but can range from: A uncomplicated birth: Around $5,000 to $8,000. A C-section: Around $10,000 to $12,000. Hospital fees in Ontario: Can include charges for a private or semi-private room and ward services
