As far as local news goes, Signal Cleveland and NEOtrans have been great!

Thread of my 2026 reading. The goal is to read more books. I'm calmer when I read more!

For the past few years, really starting with Trump's first presidency, I have been fumbling around trying to find a good news source. The best news source I can think of is Democracy Now! If anyone has any news recs I'm all ears.

This is the future. We can and we will make our roads safer for everyone.

What the fuck is this headline

I don't have anything sophisticated to say. I'm sad and terrified for so many people. At least I'm not saying this kind of stuff

Time to dust this one off again

The media wants the war and likes Trump and so will not report on this war as if it is unpopular, despite overwhelming polling showing that it is. Covering things as if they are unpopular is for things they want to stop and they want the war and want it to succeed.

Yeah "If you're on the highway, you have to worry about other cars. If you're driving in a city, you not only have to worry about other cars, you have to worry about pedestrians."

Interventions

It's impossible to not have a sense of soaring joy in your heart reading this speech. "Here, where the language of the New Deal was born, we will return the vast resources of this city to the workers who call it home.'

"Cleveland’s ability to market itself as a low-cost city to live-work-play is hurt by its car dependency — the second-largest personal expense after housing. More housing, jobs, shopping and services near transit offer a low-mileage, low-cost lifestyle which Cleveland can market to the world."

I woke up this morning not feeling dizzy after a week of seasickness. My bus ride is almost over and I still feel fine. Good dizzy-free times ahead for me this weekend!

New York City is a rich place full of technology wizards. It's also a place with a lot of pedestrians. I would think the city could prevent deaths of people walking home from a NYE party.

Hell yes. Nic is going to thrive as a Blue Jay.

Good news there is a cure for poster's disease

New adventures lie ahead for us all!

Last night a lady told me the bike lanes make traffic worse. She told me this after she told me Covid has made people more aggressive drivers and before telling me the truly dangerous road in our neighborhood is when the bike lane ends because people drive so fast on the 4 lane road.*

Real winter has come for Cleveland

Not comforting at all "In this sense, the subliterate zoomer killers are not at the fringe of society, but are the epitome of it."

There are some activities outside.

Tabouli and her innocent look after chasing her sister around the house

that is so much bird. SO much bird

nbc just put up a stat that said lebron has faced 35% of the players who have ever played in the nba

@badbisque.bsky.social Have you watched My Girlfriend is Missing? Incredible stuff!

It's weird how much people discount luck. I was healthy in my 20s and had to have a splenectomy due to a virus. I was simply unlucky. And now I can't vent my spleen so I have to be on this app all the time complaining about stuff!

Katia is a Mamdani appointee? Let's fucking go, Mets!

Oh this is a fun thing you can do with your Cleveland Public Library account.

Finished reading How To Kill A City by P.E. Moskowitz We would ALL be better off if we treated housing as a human right and didn't make people struggle for the fundamental need of having a roof over their head.

Triston has a minor league deal with the Padres? Putting all of my energy into manifesting a monster season for Triston.

Shalida A. Askanazi is one of Cleveland’s Most Interesting People and she is on this app, so that's a w for bsky. @shalidaask.bsky.social I look forward to reading your book!

I had a migraine for 12 hours and it has finally broken. Is my newfound wellness due to seeing Brayan Rocchio listed as one of Cleveland’s Most Interesting People? Who can say!

Would like to know more about this surgery. I hate hiccups.

Kind of proud of how I'm using exclamation points less and less. Don't know if I'll set a 2026 goal to be totally exclamation point free or not.

A very clear documentation of the horrors our government committed against the people of Chicago.

LeMonde said, not on our watch

Oh hell yeah Welcome back to Cleveland, Mr. Avila!

Wind gusts are going to be 62 mph tomorrow? That is absurd and I do not like it.

Flat fixed and I biked home. If I had gone .3 miles more I would be at 4,000 🙄

Got a flat on what would have been a perfect day to ride downtown! Waiting to be taken in a car to yoga. Thankful for the ride, but I would much rather be biking!

AI telling me googling Chad Curtis rap music points to former MLB player Chad Curtis dabbling in rap/hip-hop. Lol AI lol

My whole life we’ve been told that The US is simply too big to have high speed rail

When I can't sleep I'll go down to the living room to read. It usually takes Rhubarb 5 minutes or so to realize I'm gone. I love hearing her jump down from the bed and run down the stairs to join me. I love this girl so much.

Saw a bumper sticker on a Hyundai that said, “I worked 70+ hours a week for 40+ years to afford my privileges. You can too.” If I worked 10 hours every day for 40 years and was driving a ten-year old Hyundai, I might be bitter too. But the problem isn’t the youngs. (Also. No you didn’t)

Two stories side by side in WashPost

Left turns done quickly and/or in an oversized vehicle are dangerous. "A 72-year-old man and a 66-year-old woman, both from Sheffield Village, were crossing the street when a Dodge pickup truck struck them as it turned left, police said."

The harm from these budget cuts will last for a very long time.

This is really an incredible story. Besides the obvious lesson that we need to take better care of people, it's hard to know what to think of this story.

Happy birthday, Rickey Henderson. 💚
