Safer cycling doesn't require more space. It just requires a better allocation of the space we already have.

I just found out about this and here is another thing people can help with!!

I totally understand not wanting to buy on AMZ. Donate to something like this instead!!
Okay! This has already inspired a bunch of DMs, so I made a page on the website. If you have 50,000+ Skymiles and would be willing to book flights to get someone home, please fill this out.

Ok folks, I've updated the wishlist page of our ragtag group of whistlesmiths and we have a number of people running low on filament - if you wanna help contribute to our efforts of making and distributing free community safety whistles around the country, here's the list! linktr.ee/WhistleWishL...
WhistleWishLists | Linktree
We're the Whistle Avengers. We turn each spool of filament into 400-700 whistles which we send out into the world. Sponsor whistles in your favorite colors!

Also, @seanhollister.bsky.social has been hanging out with the Whistle Coven, and wrote a piece about it! The opening line is "Kit Rocha and Courtney Milan have a knack for drawing attention to a cause."

Our chaos field has been immortalized.

"you might stumble over a whole collective of people resisting in ways you didn't think of. There's a crew of carpenters just going around fixing kicked-in doors. There are tow truck drivers taking cars of detained people away for free...."

Suddenly realizing that in 10-20 years, the MN Historical Society will have an exhibit about *all this* and there will be a whole wall showing different types of whistles
We have favorite whistles now. I never could have imagined.

my mildly crackpot theory is that we have a non-gendered nation-wide loneliness crisis, and that intense craving of purpose and connection is fueling a lot of the resistance organizing happening now.

Fascism wants you to believe that you are alone. That you are isolated. That the feelings you have are yours and nobody else has them because everybody is too afraid to speak.

But love is stronger than fascism. Community is stronger than fascism.

I used to hate blue cheese but now I like it.
ok so Signal, the secret-keeping app, is down. you must now confess one or more secrets to me in the interim.

The death of Alex Pretti has been ruled a homicide, the Hennepin County medical examiner’s office said. Pretti was shot Jan. 24 during a chaotic encounter with federal immigration officers in Minneapolis. Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez were named as the two officers who fired at Pretti.

I’m trying to help this immigrant family who’s been inside for over a month due to increased ICE presence in our community. Rent and bills are due tomorrow (Feb. 1) so we are really hoping to support them. Let’s make this family happy & prevent their displacement. ❤️

Love seeing the pictures rides all over the U.S. and the world in honor of Alex Pretti. Our family in SF drew his name across San Francisco with their bikes.

With such short notice and wind chills into the negatives, I'm incredibly proud of the showing from the Heights Bicycle Coalition chapter of @bikecleveland.bsky.social for the Alex Pretti Memorial Ride.

This is what community looks like!

The Critical Mass Seattle cyclists group gathered in Seattle’s Westlake shopping district to ride for #alexpretti. Cyclists around the country are joining to ride tonight.
Alex Pretti was an avid cyclist in his off time.
