This is a small snow plow for sidewalks
If your city plows the roads but leaves sidewalks up to property owners, your city hates pedestrians.

From what was the bike industry's largest cash raise for a brand to scale rapidly, to now a potential closure by January. Rad Power Bikes' steady wind-up appears imminent.
Will the bike trade do anything differently next time a black swan event arrives?

Chuck needs to be replaced as leader.
Schumer allows a provision to go into the supposedly “clean” CR to allow people like Ted Cruz to file lawsuits for money over Jack Smith’s J6 investigation. Amazing Dem leadership in the senate. Thanks Chuck!

Not only downtown, but more public restrooms everywhere. Very few if any along Minnehaha creek bike path. Functioning path/street/safety lights and toilets are too few in this city.
Where’s the restroom? Minneapolis needs more answers
Businesses can’t take on the entire burden. The city must invest in a network of free, accessible and well-maintained public restrooms.

Shutdown package includes provision to entirely kill the massive US hemp industry at the behest of Mitch McConnell and big alcohol companies. This “deal” is worse than getting nothing. Not a clean bill by any measure. Any Democratic Senator who votes for this deserves to be ousted in primary
NEW: Buried in 141-page text of the latest draft text of the Senate's ag appropriations bill is a restriction on hemp-derived THC products w/ >0.4mg per container—an effective ban on the existing market. Would go into effect 1yr from passage: www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Dems need to start talking more about how Trump’s dementia means that he can’t distinguish his fantasies from reality. He has completely lost touch with the real world and only knows what his sycophantic courtiers are telling him.
Trump: "If you look at affordability, which they campaigned on, they lied. Because they talked about 'Oh, prices are up' -- no, prices are down under the Trump administration and they're down substantially."
