Hey all my bike people! I've got a fast potty mouth, and I need to check my vocabulary. I really don't mean some of the mean things that come out of my mouth in the heat of the moment. Do you all have any suggestions for fast comments when someone is in the bike lane, cars act up, etc?

Temporary social media hiatus for health reasons. I'm doing better now, but I'll probably pull away anytime I need to!

My favorite sport is walking and eating pizza at the same time while looking at buildings in the city.
It's kind of like lacrosse, except for actually not at all like lacrosse.

I'm just not really a fan of people turning into me and my dogs when I'm trying to cross the street. Maybe every crossing should be a Shibuya-style crossing. Is that the solution? Full-on pedestrian time and then full-on car time at each intersection?

Maybe I'm just an asshole.

I keep messing up and pointing at a no turn on red sign whenever I see people go through the sign, however, it's green on their end, so I'm definitely just embarrassing myself. I think I'm so tired of cars just existing in cities that anything they do makes me mad at this point.

I had a dream that Apple Intelligence actually worked on my phone and I was recommending it to people. Wouldn't that be cool?

I already miss Barcade, but The Pixel Lab is looking extremely cool. It was closed for a private event tonight, but I'll definitely be making my way back!

I feel like my wife is going to leave me because I keep talking about urbanism and environmentalism, and I get pretty passionate about it, and she's most definitely tired of it.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Can't sleep. Too busy thinking of how to better organize my desk while taking breaks to play Donkey Kong Country Returns on 3DS. What a good game. And what a cool desk setup thus far!

I don't know how you all keep posting. I'm absolutely fried and social media feels like getting pummeled in the brain. Actually, just about any internet feels this way. Even talking to my irl friends feels this way because they're fried too, and not the smoke weed kind of fried.

In the great green park, There was a shiny red bike, And a little bell that chimed, With a gentle, sweet strike.
And there were two little wheels, And a basket with meals, And a headlight so bright, For safe riding at night.

Rode me some NYC today. Took the east side greenway to Central Park, then rode back down, crossed the Williamsburg bridge, got some Pizza™️, came back on the Brooklyn Bridge, then off I go back to Jersey via the PATH.
..which is very delayed, so I'm posting this from the train.

I like how I can tell any hair stylist "make my hair like John Wick" and they'll know exactly how much to trim it. Thanks, Keanu Reeves.
