Delegates from 190 countries are meeting in Belém, Brazil, for the 30th climate negotiations, or COP. A decade ago, in Paris, they agreed to take global heating seriously. But the world in which they are gathering today looks nothing like the one envisioned back then.

As the leaves disappear from our trees, we can suddenly notice an abundance of what look like green shrubs growing in many trees. These are mistletoes, plants with an important role in our Christmas celebrations, but a far more important ecological role in forests all over the world.

The best. I went into Harris Cyclery to pick up some tires for my commutecycle back in the day. I said something like, I just ride this one to work. For serious rides, I've got a racing bike.

He looks me in the eyes and says "The most serious thing you can do with your bike is ride it to work."

That’s four scooters two folding bikes and two full sized bikes here in one car on MARC Penn 438 out of union @mta.maryland.gov . Couple of us tried to get on the earlier train number 536 and couldn’t get a spot, and we left folks on the platform for this train too. Crying out for more bike cars!

any talk of AI friendship is inherently tragic, points at the incomprehensible well of loneliness from which all drink at some point in our lives, some so deeply that we get sick and stay sick, and it's Romper Room level basic to say "you're your own friend!" but Jesus you must know that & live it

How can it be the case that I bought a new modern frame and have the same problem this guy has? We just want nice steel frames with drop bars and rim brakes that work! This is robust, solved tech! (Does anyone have some discontinued silver tektro rx6 mini-v brakes lying around unused? Help.)
