why do posts like this never trend :'((

“They are highly organized … [they] have purchased their own animal costumes”

Even when the sidewalk is 15 feet wide, drivers want to occupy it all. Not only did the second driver pull up farther than necessary, he pulled up even closer as I approached to go between him and the truck in front. The cherry on top is the driver yelling at me as I ride away.

Wheel of Fortune, welcome to the War on Cars

ICE Nazis in Chicago tried to kidnap a food delivery worker but my man was too fast for those slow bastards

Of fucking course this dweeb went to Carmel High School

Just so I'm clear: TV host says we should kill every homeless person? No big deal TV host says the right must "go to war" with the left? Pfft. TV host says the government is cracking down on critics? Well, the government cracks down on him for the criticism. Free speech, everyone.

Report: You To Be Fired For Reading This Headline About Charlie Kirk

I'm 70. It's that stupid frog the bigots have cooped to be their symbol. My symbols all eat frogs for lunch...

THIS YOU? MASTER THREAD 1. Jeremy Clarkson

Shoutout to my Indiana/Midwest artists who are out here trying to achieve their dreams in the creative field. I know how practically impossible it can be being in the middle of nowhere, often overlooked with few resources. You're putting up a worthwhile fight!

I can't tell you how incredible this is to see. I love WarioWare SO much.

Very cool to just have random pieces of carbage literring a bus stop. I'm sure this driver is coming back for this any second now once they realize they lost it.

a specific skill I've developed over the past ~20 years is crafting responses to emails sent to me, but intended for that other Naomi Wolf

Ebike broke, but I am fortunate enough to live next to a major bus line so I'm back on my old shit.

My mother in law loves to call my wife and be like “so and so fell off their tractor and it ripped them in half but they actually lived long enough for their family to make it there to watch the light go out of their eyes. So anyways what are you guys up to?”

City-County Councilor Crista Carlino accused people in power of tampering with the scope of the council's harassment investigation, and called for the mayor to quit, and the council president and vice president to step down from their leadership positions.

Watched this agitator get his Trump flag stolen by a cyclist. As he chased the cyclist, in the most cartoonish way possible, he tripped and fell. All of the D batteries flew out of his megaphone, his MAGA hat fell on the ground, and his flagpole snapped in half. Owned.

Someone from a country with an actual social net once said to me that the thing is most countries accept that a small minority of people will scam any system but those people are sad and tired and the benefits to people with real need outweighs that but Americans are spiteful

MSNBC with a great speed debunk of DHSs justifications for tackling and handcuffing Sen. Padilla. Padilla is the top Dem on the Senate Judiciary immigration subcommittee -- there's no way Noem (who meets regularly with senators on this topic) didn't know who he is.

Again, murder is legal in America if you do it with a car

My favorite thing to do is drive the speed limit on Keystone Ave and watch the drivers in my rearview rage. Someone flipped me off put their window for a full 20 seconds, I cackled the whole time.

An innocent man who committed no crime but is the same race as the person who murdered your daughter should have to spend the rest of his life in a concentration camp is the argument?

Musk claiming that hecklers are Soros operatives, meanwhile he's literally paying people in the crowd to show up AND sign his petition. The audience eats it up, joining in his USA chant. These people are living in a completely separate reality at this point.

"Severance" but it's about how people become totally different individuals behind the wheel of a car.

Listening to "The High Cost of Free Parking" by Donald Shoup, published in 2005. Got to a part where he talks about Circle Center Mall succeeding and thriving, despite skepticism over paid $1.50 parking. I don't think the parking is what did it in, but this passage was certainly a sign of the era.

Protesting israel is not anti-semitic.

Another day, another ambulance at the transit center

TFW you find out your city is putting in sharrows instead of a protected bike lane.

I usually take the bus from my house into Indy and then bike the last few miles, but today I decided to throw caution to the wind and bike the whole way home for the first time. Only 8 miles, but I made it and I am super happy. Small steps.

My sister, who had no idea what congestion pricing was when I asked her opinion last year, had this to say to me today:

Loved ones urge caution, while riders call on the governor to take action during a vigil for a cyclist killed at a problem intersection. https://www.wishtv.com/news/local-news/advocates-call-for-safer-streets-at-vigil-for-cyclist/ 

Carville: The key issue is that in this century under Democratic President 50 million jobs have been created. One million jobs under Republicans

On February 13th, 2025, Dillan Lee Rogers, 32, was killed in Indianapolis while cycling home from work. He leaves behind two young children. Please consider donating to his GoFundMe: gofund.me/5b62aa2f

Spoke with @wrtv.bsky.social’s Adam Schumes this afternoon about the hit-and-run this morning that killed a woman who was in town for work. Far too many pedestrians and bicyclists in Indianapolis are being struck and killed by cowardly drivers who leave the scene. #HoosierSky #Indianapolis

It’s time to admit it. Charter Schools are failing our students. Not IPS. We must push back the notion that IPS should close and start having the real conversation; that charter schools must go!

Who's going to be there with me at the Vision Zero meeting tomorrow? They won't let me speak, but I will be seen.

Today, the same as every other damn day, trans rights are human rights

I NEED Y'ALLS HELP We got together with experts and looked at the numbers and we CAN solve homelessness in Indianapolis But the only way it happens is the Mayor rallies the funds to do it thru city government, corporate and philanthropic partners
