Trying to get my cat to sit in front of my apartment door to win a Halloween contest. Not much luck so far but she's getting there.

I have a right to freedom of speech, and I exercised that right today by voting no on a resolution that would honor a man who didn’t believe I deserved a seat at his table. It’s our table. We all have a right to be there.

Did too much today too quickly. Biked to and from farmers market, got my bike upstairs, and took a shower. Nearly fucking fainted in the shower. These gut issues are starting to clear up kinda and now whatever this is, is getting worse.

Old Amtrak ads hit sometimes....
Still disappointed in myself that I haven't taken the opportunity to ride Amtrak yet. :(

You are not Making a Difference there. You are not Fighting the Good Fight. You are not even Maintaining a Community you couldn't easily replicate elsewhere.

You are propping up a right-wing site and, worse, you are being warped by your constant exposure to it and you don't even realize it.

Leave.
No matter what #Musk says or does, many on the left continue to post on and pay for X, a clear example of how progressive movements are beholden to the narrative that we don't have to change anything at all about our lives to achieve our political goals.

I wrote about why that's bad in July ⬇️
X reveals a weakness in left-wing rhetoric
Good principles mean nothing when you materially support a fascist propaganda machine.

Bike ride to the local hospital yesterday. The parking was at only 1 entrance and only had 3 racks but its better than the rust bucket hazards at CVS

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

Political violence is abhorrent. I have not celebrated Kirk's death.

But Newsom calling for his followers to "continue Charlie Kirk's work," someone who praised stoning gay people as "god's perfect law," who called for men to "take care of" trans people like they did in the 50s and 60s, is not it.

How many fully protected (or fully segregated) crossings does 465 have?

The Monon
Pennsy Trail
Fall Creek Trail
71st (East)
Nickle Plate Trail
71st/86th (West) - [crosses but doesn't go anywhere]

The southside is SO close to downtown and doesn't have a single one?

"There's no room for a bike lane here" yes there is, it's hiding underneath the parking.
Avant / Après la piste cyclable "utilitaire" Route des Tribunes à l'Hippodrome de Longchamp (à ne pas confondre avec l'historique anneau de vitesse à droite de la photo, cette piste utilitaire est assez courte). Fini le stationnement sauvage à cet endroit.

A great new video from American Fietser with a fantastic, surprising announcement.

Congratulations!

The new format (no longer live, but real time) is also very entertaining.

More of this.

Take a look and don‘t forget the 👍.

Really loving ULI’s proposal for the old Indiana Women’s prison. The priority should be ensuring the interior streets are car-free spaces where pedestrians and cyclists can move about safely. This could be a huge win for housing on the Near Eastside.

Ditto. Each bike(and sometimes 2!) means 1 more car off the road when doing any sort of errands. Got me some banana bread at the Farmer's market btw. Shoutout to Generations Pie Company.
