Tonight Trump babbled "Tonight, every American can look forward to a day when we are finally free from the wickedness of Iranian aggression and the spectre of nuclear blackmail," But when can the world be free of the wickedness of American aggression & the spectre of nuclear blackmail????

Day 1 of #30DaysofBiking Not riding under Dr. orders. #SadCycylist

Another day, another driver crashing into another building in the metro. This time at Bubblecup Tea Zone in Overland Park. Very lucky this place was unoccupied because that driver drove though the entire seating area and would have hurt everyone there. www.facebook.com/watch/?v=199...

These stories make me want to cry. Clearly people are yearning for social connection, but because social connections require work with give & take, Chat Bots (stop calling it AI, there is nothing intelligent about this addictive product) offer an easy but problematic alternative.

Oil extraction and plastic waste are great examples of imperial capitalism that still harms the global south as we continue to push the problems of our own consumption on those nations.

Neighbors are awesome! My neighbor two floors below is going to drive me to the Dr as the doctor told me that I can't drive, or ride my bicycle, and transit would take 1.5 hours at best & have to do one or two transfers which aren't as easy to navigate once my eyes get dilated.

I'm not a lawyer, but the Government's case may be the most ignorant case I have ever heard presented to the court. I have no faith this Court will side with the Constitution, but this seems the clearest opportunity for the Court to vote to affirm the Constitution!

Pedestrian hit-and-run fatalities double in Missouri over past decade as drivers continue to hit people and flee with impunity.

The US needs to rebuild the train networks we used to have. No, we aren't the Netherlands, but this isn't about coast-to-coast trips. It's about connecting local neighborhoods, cities, and regions to help eliminate forced car dependency.

Waiting for the Dr. I had a little black spot in my right eye last night, now I have a lot of new very large floaters right in the middle of my vision. It's like looking screen door with my eye right up next to it. Yes can see though it, but it's obscured & heavily degraded.

America was built by the rail network. Our rail network used to the the envy of very nation, we still have a very extensive rail network, but it's only for products not people. We need to change that. Fast & frequent regional intercity trails would be a game changer!

I wonder if I just had a small peripheral vitreous detachment in my right eye. I have two places where the eye gel is still holding tight to the retina and pulling it away from the rear wall. It's detached everywhere else, & now I have a small black dot in lower center vision. Guess I'll talk to Dr!

Well shit, I've been doing this whole bicycling thing all wrong!

I know it's supposed to rain tonight, but right now I'm having my own little private lighting storm in my right eye at the moment and it's really distracting while trying to do things!

We want to remind people that the "V" in "EV" stands for "vehicle," not "car." Electric cars have a very important role to play as we try to wean the world off of fossil fuels, but if you're able to go car-free or car-lite by getting an electric bike, that's even better.

Looks like Oracle is laying off up to 30,000 people today. Today is probably going to be another very very bad day for all the former Cerner employees, especially the Kansas City ones, that are left with Oracle. The Cerner owners make huge profits while the workers got screwed!

I love how much Kansas has stealthily invaded Missouri and taken territory. K State has the KC Design center located downtown KC, KU planted KUMC right on the border & now has buildings on the MO side, as well as owning the Liberty Hospital in Liberty MO!

This is by far the best example of the victim blaming propaganda your local government will produce in support of the status quo and car dependency!

It's KC Royals opening day, which is a great time to remember the Royals are worth 26% more this year than last. They can easily build their own stadium without a penny of tax money! Any tax money invested into a stadium needs to come with an ownership stake for the city/county!

Not Just Bikes, provides a new in depth video on the reasons to hate cars! Even if you love driving, there are plenty of reasons to want better cities without doing away with all cars. Kansas City makes multiple apparencies in this video.

A view from the Crescent apnews.com/article/airp...

The city loves affordable housing, as long as it's for cars, people not so much, which is why the city spends nearly $20m a year subsiding housing for cars (parking garages) but only around $5m on housing support!l for people!

The way to stay safe on or near an ebike is to stay away from people driving cars, who kill nearly 40k people annually in the US, and well over 1 million people worldwide.

Some shots from Kansas City's #NoKings rally!

#NoKings participants! Now that you have used a bus or a train or both: promise me you will replace car trips with transit a couple times a week. You marched to demand a revolution? Live your revolution. Show us you meant it!

Driving into the setting sun is dangerous at the best of times, but when you have vision issues such as light sensitivity, driving at this time is especially dangerous, but riding a bike can be much much safer.

No it's not, it was a stupid selection, the fans told the Longs in a very loud voice we didn't want him!

"driving is a time-consuming and meaningless experience. In fact, the word “experience” is a stretch – I’ve started to wonder if it is more like the absence of an experience." When driving I can't tell you about anything between home & destination, but bicycling I see it all, feel it all etc!

While other cities have failing Streetcars, Kansas City continues to increase ridership.

Just another reminder to get out there once more. NO KINGS today at 2pm.

Yep, it took me three attempts to get my real ID. Every time I went with what was listed as required, they would find something wrong. And this was as a white man, no name change who has time, money & all the paperwork needed, & it was still a pain. Voter ID IS voter suppression!

Students from the KC Design Center presenting their work for the Green Line Trail at Vine Street Brewing until 6 pm tonight

Each of us will become disabled at one time or another, either temporarily or permanently and that will effect us all in different ways. This is another great example of why bicycling isn't "ableist" but "enabling"!

I emailed the author, her reply was "Our goal was to highlight how the tragedy has prompted broader conversations about e‑scooters and other micromobility devices." The only conversations needed is why we continue to allow drives w/cars to kill so many people & blame everyone else for it!

Do I have any followers in the Platte City/ Camden Point areas of North Kansas City who would verify if the two points added to this map actually have bike repair stands or air pumps? Thank you www.google.com/maps/d/edit?...

For a more in depth look at the recently passed budget. www.kctv5.com/2026/03/26/k...

A city tells the truth about itself through its design. If the safest way to move through it requires a car, then freedom has been quietly tied to income and ability. #Urbanism #TransportationEquity #VulnerableRoadUsers

Kansas City just passed a new budget. Council chose police over people. We are mandated by the state to fund police at 25% of our budget. Council chose 27% at the cost of parks, transit, neighborhoods, then gave $5M more to the police to cover lawsuits. Looking at massive transit cuts!

There's a fantastic new report out by our friends at the Great Plains Institute looking at bikeshare. Our regional history with it. What works. Who it isn't working for well enough. Read our synopsis ⤵️⤵️⤵️ www.bikemn.org/gpi-bikeshar...

Sound familiar? Putin is leaning towards a major ground operation in Ukraine as he is convinced that the country will then capitulate, an official from one of the countries mediating between Russia and Ukraine said

Lots of new gravel, mountain and recreational, electric and non-electric bikes from Marin, Jamis, Kona and Reid as well

It's Spring, the sun is setting later, and gas prices are up. These are all reasons you need a bicycle. Need a good pre-loved bike at low prices, check out West Bottom Bikes in Kansas City! New and pre-loved bikes on sale now!

I want my next mayor & elected municipal rep to have this type of VISION. A multifaceted, multipronged approach at solving multiple issues at the same time. It's hard because there is no TRY in #PoliticalWill but there is WILL. Do More because it has To Be Done. #TOPoli bsky.app/profile/lanr...

Hi friend! 🌞 I'm finally coming out of winter stressie/depressie hidey hole, but wanted to share what we've been cooking up. I'm working on something really cool w/some of my amazing friends. Please feel free to check it out and spread some kindness too! 🌼🪩 www.kindnesscitykc.com

He will be missed, and then everyone will get back into their cars and go about their lives like nothing ever happened and nothing can be done about it until the next sacrifice is offered up to the traffic gods, then we all mourn again, then get back into our cars, rinse and repeat!

If these numbers are even remote accurate, and I don't they are, it's even more astounding that we continue this push for a fossil/bio fuel economy when it comes with all the negatives and doesn't perform as well.

Reminds me of KCMO City Council continuing to divert our Public Mass Transportation fund to road resurfacing and streetlights while our bus system is literally facing a $22.5 million funding gap that's set to cut 1/3rd of routes and 2/3rds of weekend service!

ending car dealerships would cut the heart out of Republican suburbia a million little fiefdoms for the biggest asshole in town, spreading poison all across the country

This is a great story on women's soccer and KC, but it leaves out the KC Mystics and the amazing Maribel Dominguez, Roseli, Pardis Brown, Shannon DeVos and others who blazed the trail for the women who followed at FCKC, and KC Current! @kcur.org www.kcur.org/history/2026...
