Devastating— “I’m afraid for my parents to leave the house. They treat us like dogs because of the color of our skin. I shouldn’t be scared, I should be focusing on school.” A 16yo American living in fear of the Trump regime’s ICE goons terrorizing brown people pleads for help.

We have reached a verdict: Not guilty.

According to this ranking, Canada’s reputation has improved since 2024. We are now the 2nd most reputable country in the world. The United States has dropped from 30th to 48th in that same year, the biggest drop of any nation BY FAR. Its reputation-peers are now Kuwait, Algeria, Kazakhstan…

Pictures of actual bike lanes on Granby St. So nice to see years of work actually resulting in physical bicycle infrastructure. #bikelanes #bicycleadvocacy

Fantastic!

It felt good to wake up in America today.

Today in 1946, Admiral William H.P. Blandy created significant controversy when he, his wife Roberta, and Rear Admiral Frank J. Lowry were photographed with this cake in the Officers’ Club at the Army War College in Washington, DC, celebrating the conclusion of Operation Crossroads at Bikini Atoll.

LOOK, LOOK! It’s happening! Bike lanes in Granby Street, you can almost taste it! And me, taking a selfie with a work truck :)

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

Nice!

This makes me happy!

Congratulations to @philforvirginia.bsky.social for a solid win for the 94th District and Ocean View! Thank you for being a part of what makes OV such a great community! #ov #oceanview #virginia

Yes.

There is a distinct possibility that some people are too stupid to participate in a democracy

Virginia, are you ready to turn the page? Polls are open until 7pm. Let’s win. abigailspanberger.com/vote

It’s the CO2 emissions.

Polls are now open. As long as you are in line by 7:00 p.m., you will be able to vote.

Election Day! Make sure you come and vote! I’ll be here all day. #election #vote

Back in the 90s, big healthcare ran an ad to scare Americans into opposing health reform. It ended in a famous line: “When they choose, we lose.” As millions of Americans face health insurance price hikes with impossible deductibles, I visited Harry and Louise in 2025 to see what they think:

If people on bikes show up to the polls like they do at Prospect & Hampshire at 8:29am, Nov 3rd, 44F out, we got tomorrow’s #CambMa city election. Please vote for candidates on the @cbsiepac.bsky.social slate, and tell a friend! www.cambridgebikesafety.org/election/ (16 people on bikes, 3 cars)

This is quite a story: the US employed every strongarm tactic available, including personal threats against delegates and their families, to derail an agreement on reducing shipping emissions that was almost finalized. on.ft.com/47lq3dZ

NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work. Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours. She was later released with NO CHARGE. A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”. You decide…

The masochism levels of ‘nobody wants me here so I’m definitely going to be here’ was pretty crazy pre-start to finish. Money had to be THE only driver and we know how that worked out LOL @betternorfolk.bsky.social has all the receipts 😭😭😭

🙈🙉🙊

It’s the CO2 emissions.

Wrote about how Game 7 not only had two of the five most impactful plays in history, it also had.. - the most impactful out ever - 3 of the top dozen plays ever - the most plays that swung championship WPA by at least 15% of any game ever (9) www.mlb.com/news/most-wi...

As best I can tell from the outside, the New York election is between two competing views of the city and the people in it.

“More bicycle than cars…”. If you build it, they will come.

BRAVO ZULU Utah! I can’t get over how inspirational this is for a state to do. Such good Monday morning news!

Happy 66th birthday to the Reverend Horton Heat! youtu.be/mVxSlsPOSFU?...

It’s the CO2 emissions.

I just realized I can order my favorite müesli online. #muesli

Some charts for those who don't know the extent of the US public (and private) investment in research (particularly in biomedical research) compared to other countries and institutions. The destruction of the US' scientific institutions has global implications.

It’s the CO2 emissions.

SNL cold open paired with crazy World Series 9th inning action.

THAT is baseball.

Huge shoutout to Barack Obama — finally saying what we’ve been shouting for years. This fight for democracy, truth, and decency Thank you for always standing up for the good fight. 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Paris moving forward while Norfolk drowns.

DST is stupid.

Yo lo vi!

I think I’m supposed to say something like you should run for mayor.

Frustrating that I can’t watch game 7 on my home TV. I guess we don’t have the right subscriptions.

Obama: "It's like every day is Halloween, except it's all tricks and no treats. And here's the thing -- it's not as if we did not see some of this coming. I mean, I'll admit it's worse than even I expected, but I did warn y'all. And you know what? Donald Trump warned you too."

Here’s to @vadot.bsky.social not being part of the solution.
