My Dad was a mechanic and farmer. He taught me to leave things better than we found them. How about we try that with the planet? https://cclusa.org/take-action

@Nikolas in this very story is an example of Minnesotans governing successfully across the aisle. #melissahortman had just finished negotiating a budget deal in the most closely divided legislature in the country. She will be sorely missed. https://videopress.com/v/1ATgNw7w

"I have a hard time mentally processing any claims that Los Angeles is a 'distraction' given that deploying the military if he gets pissed off and also expansively cruel immigration crackdowns were like the top two things he ran on in 2024."
Just want to express once again my contempt for all the mainstream and libertarian platforms that promoted this loathsome discount Goebbels. Shame on you.

#BikeStreak Day 71:
This evening I had the privilege to lead a social #bicycle ride where the city traffic planner and one of the city council members rode with us. I designed a route that showed examples of good bicycle infrastructure and where there are deficiencies and missing connections in the system. Afterwards we chatted over refreshments. It was a good experience. The following link is to the annotated route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/50358646

@swelljoe But do they have someone to play it? This little dude's almost got them beat. Feel free to steal for meming, origin unknown.
@UnicornRiot just to highlight a point in the article:
“Some had labels on their gear that caught people’s attention such as name patches that only said “The Others” and a Special Response Team badge with a Viking compass design called a Vegsivir. Such Nordic designs are sometimes associated with racist and neo-nazi beliefs like those of Asatru Folk Assembly”
The International #Wolf Center in Ely #Minnesota has two new pups and a pup cam. Also you can vote for names through 6/6.
Especially if you are in the US and have a republican senator, read on for what you can do at the end of the blog.

"Australian emergency physician Dr. Ahmed Abu Sweid, who arrived in Gaza just days ago...“These are all civilian injuries—gunshot wounds, shrapnel. Some arrived already dead, with gunshots to the head and chest""
"Most arrived with single gunshot wounds to the head or chest—signs of targeted execution"

@georgetakei interesting thing to say to a room full of people whose taxes pay for her healthcare.
The New York critical mass last night was the finest social ride or protest ride that I have been in, in decades. Impeccable organization by time's up, transportation alternatives, deliveristas unidos, bike messenger association. At every corner with a red light, cyclists all dismounted and walked through the intersection. This was meant to reduce the risk of police ticketing. But it also made it much easier for pedestrians to interlace with the bikes and cross even as the ride continued (contd)
"What Israel is doing is so profoundly horrible to me that it has effectively undone a decade of my beliefs in less than 20 months ... It’s also true that Hamas executed a terrorist attack targeting the most Palestinian-friendly Israelis on the planet "
