May is a long way away, but—ask any #DCPol candidate—it'll be here before you know it. Registration submitted for #BikeDC #RideOfSilence 2026. Mark your calendars for May 20 and plan to take a moment out of #BikeMonth to honor those who are no longer with us & stand for safer roads for all.

Bikemore is launching a Families for Safe Streets chapter!! We met the organizer, Amril, a few days ago after they came over to chat as soon as they saw us park our bikes :) FSS has been so successful pushing legislation to makes streets safer. I hope ppl get involved! www.baltimorefss.org/contact

Really fun to join @ward5familybiking.bsky.social today for one of their monthly rides. So many kids, so many cargo bikes, and even Santa came along!

We join Sam, a DC hit-and-run victim, in calling on Councilmember Kenyan McDuffie to move B26-0057, the Motor Vehicle Insurance Modernization Act. It's time to update DC's 40-year-old insurance minimums.

Brooke & Reid from @ward5familybiking.bsky.social shot a video about DC Ward 5 bikeway priorities and the Tuesday, Dec. 9 @ddotdc.bsky.social Strategic Bikeways Plan Ward 5 workshop, 6-8 pm. Visit waba.org/2025/12/03/d... for a WABA priorities write-up and a link to workshop info. #BikeDC

Into my mind, the thought begins to seep If no one's fond of fucking me Maybe no one's fucking fond of me Yeah, maybe I'm the only one for me I'll put my dreams high on a shelf I'll have to learn to like myself Maybe I'm the only one for me

NEW: Sean Duffy frequently calls safety his “top priority” as transportation secretary. But I spent months wading through regulatory notices and found something far different: that USDOT has been delaying, weakening and killing dozens of safety rules, many opposed by the transportation industry.🧵

Opinion: Don't be reassured when DDOT says it's committed to road safety. Under the Complete Streets road-design philosophy, the agency can weigh safety as just one among many priorities.

We need YOU! Come to Bunker Hill Elementary Dec 9 @ 6pm for FREE 🍕 & to share your wants. 🗣️

This Saturday!! Gather: Michigan Pk Community Playground (Wynton St NE) @10:30am ➡️ End: Lost Gen Brewing featuring Silver & Sons BBQ 🍗

Zohran Mamdani: potentially the NYC Streets Mayor of our wildest dreams

Another terrible, community destroying tragedy that we collectively agree is worth it. wapo.st/476q2sQ

I’m so sorry for Lisa’s family who are now going through some of the worst pain imaginable. We are failing so many families with unsafe driving and roads.

I’ve been through rock springs and learned about its tragic history. So glad that they have expanded the memorial and are not trying to just erase the painful history. We need more of this.

Immigration authorities are continuing to patrol with D.C. police weeks after the expiration of President Trump’s federal takeover, leaving some local leaders and residents alarmed about D.C. police’s role in immigration enforcement.

Important paper from @rycalder.bsky.social, Rachel Clark, and Claire Summa analyzing 2019-2023 trauma data from DC traffic crashes. They found that injury rates *increased* and that racial disparities exist *for every user type* including pedestrians & cyclists. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41014831/

We're grateful for @cmcharlesallen.bsky.social's leadership to author and pass the STEER Act and for @dcattorneygeneral.bsky.social's role in addressing the most reckless drivers on DC streets. 💛 We're also looking fwd to DC and VA's implementation of anti-speeding tech (ISA) to ensure safer speeds

Wasn't this one the hypotheticals in the supreme court cases on presidential immunity that was deemed too far fetched: That the president would be immune from criminal charges if he openly used to his powers to illegally kill civilians or political opponents? I guess we got there pretty quickly...

JD Vance is doing the Reichstag Fire the right way. by Ezra Klein

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

Quite the juxtaposition that one of the next skeets in my feed following this was about trump pardoned drug dealer Ross Ulbricht getting in on the MAGA grift: bsky.app/profile/rmac...

Really want to thank @mayorbowser.bsky.social for her efforts making my kids walk to and from school feel less safe and less hospitable

Was going to take the kids to the new activation by @downtowndc.org.web.brid.gy in Franklin Park after school pickup but watched a reckless and dangerous Park Police response that involved officers almost hitting pedestrians to respond to a single unhoused person and now I'm not.

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy

Apparently this IS a (somewhat unconventional) ghost bike, missing a plaque, for Constance Holden, who was killed at that intersection in 2010

It is dangerous for the National Guard to be deployed in residential areas — for people here, for Guard members themselves, and for the communities back home which they are supposed to serve. Armored tactical vehicles should not be on city streets.

This is the "good partnership" that Mayor Bowser and Chief Smith were praising this week.

This is the Go Fund Me for the family of DaRon Craig who was struck and killed by a driver last week while walking *on the sidewalk* with his 12yo son. It doesn’t have to be this way, Portland 💔

Challenge: post your last photo taken in DC to show what a hell-hole it is.

🧵 (1 of 6) Community members recently placed memorial ghost bikes in honor of friends and loved ones. This includes new memorials for loved ones who were killed while bicycling sometime in the past year and a half, plus previous memorials that were in need of care and replacement. ❤️‍🩹 #BikeDC

We had such a fun morning with @ward5familybiking.bsky.social x Right Proper x Zeke's! 🚲🎉🚲🎉🚲

With a track record like this, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that VIP plate 632 in @mayorbowser.bsky.social’s DC didn’t stop when I was in the (4-way stop) crosswalk with my kid this morning.

The District Dept. of Transportation plans to eliminate Arizona Ave. NW protected bike lanes. Use this action to tell DDOT you object: waba.org/action-page/... . The city should not compromise safety because a few individuals don’t like the look of flex posts.

Nestled up against the steps of City Hall in LA is a large placard with missing posters for the recently disappeared in the city.

Attention: fellow people who hate flashing yellow left turn arrows across protected bike lanes - DDOT is putting a new one to allow southbound left turns across the MBT from 1st St NE to K “for the safety of bicyclists”. Signal is already up but please push DDOT / Council to evaluate safety.

Better—or at least more arguably relevant—than some of the slop shoveled into this year's DC budget bill, but once again, if the Mayor really believes in this, why doesn't she propose a bill and let Council discuss it separately…? lims.dccouncil.gov/Legislation/... [pp. 8–10 of embedded PDF]

If anyone learns of more details about this crash, please send them my way.

Hearing there may have been a cyclist hit at 4th and Michigan this morning? Scene is weird, according to a friend, with just a bike, a delivery truck, and a police officer, which implies someone was transported.

There is actually a very accurate historical document of the post-9/11 vibes. A clipart comic called Get Your War On. Click on through: www.mnftiu.cc/2001/10/09/w...

At ANC 1D (Mt Pleasant) tonight, a Commissioner asked CM Nadeau—noting that it's often said budgets are expressions of values, and we keep hearing about all the things like libraries and TANF & other services that the Mayor's budget _devalues_ —what *does* it value? . ".... Billionaires?"

Please sign & share for someone like me who loves our public lands & does not want them sold off, but who also lacks a voting congressional representative (& as a bonus, here’s a photo from a trip I took last year to the Indian peaks wilderness area): action.outdooralliance.org/a/reconcilia...

🚨 There’s a lot of horrific news out of Washington right now—but you might have missed this: Senate Republicans just introduced a plan to sell off 120 million acres of our public lands. Let me break down what’s in the bill and why it’s a full-scale land grab. 🧵

More right-wing political violence. www.fox5dc.com/news/man-dri...

See folks out tomorrow!

Join us tomorrow!
