Shout out to CPD who while responding to a bike crash in the bike lane, blocked said bike lane and the line of sight for the intersecting street.

CML is trying to stop workers from forming their union. Tell them to knock it off:

I absolutely lost it earlier when I saw this.

Left home on bike Saw a cyclist get hit (they're ok) Helped with police report Biked the rest of the way Ran a meeting Biked most of the way home Realized I lost my rear light Backtracked mile and a half Found it Biked home. I'm also on my period and jetlagged. Gonna eat ice cream and go to bed.

People on bikes aren’t swerving to annoy drivers, they’re just trying not to die or destroy their mode of transportation. This is generally what the bike portion looks like of our “shared” roads. Glorious.

can i offer you a nice stream restoration in this trying time

My written testimony for City Council re: NWSL in Columbus.

matternews.org/community/wo... we asked management to stay neutral. they refused to do that. sharing misinformation and punishing workers does not demonstrate respect, integrity, or inspiration. it does not create “a thriving community where wisdom prevails.”

The only way to begin is by beginning. And season 8 is beginning soon... 🃏♠️♦️♣️♥️

Hey drivers, one way to save on expensive fuel is to drive slower. Another is to use public transportation or ride a bike. Any of those will lead to fewer people killed.

Group hug on Orion after the announcement of the astronauts suggestion to name a Moon crater in honor of Reid Wiseman's deceased wife. 😢

They put this right next to the train tracks 😂

A gas saving tip that everyone hates but is 100% effective and accessible for anyone who drives is "go slower"

Undergrad: "We're going to build a subway network!" Grad student: "We can build light rail!" Early career planner: "BRT is a cost saving service as good as rail!" Grizzled planner: "What if we somewhat improved the existing bus service"

I walked into my friend's apartment and was handed a covid test (negative, thankfully), bowl of pasta and a glass of water. Feeling very grateful for friends like them.

Sooo. A bottle of water is $1 at the grocery store; $3 at the gas station; and $5 at the airport. The bottle of water is the same. It’s only the location that changed. So if you’re not feeling valuable, may it’s just your location? Just go to the airport, that’ll fix you.

People talk about “public transit” like it’s some abstract policy debate, but it’s literally the difference between someone getting to work or losing their job. A bus that runs on time isn’t a luxury. It’s dignity, mobility, and a shot at stability. #transit

Wheeee.

NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. I’m not crying you’re crying 🥹🔭🧪 📸: NASA

An excellent post by @jregensb.bsky.social that sums up exactly why I am cold about #NWSLtoCBUS.

“Compared with non-active travelers, the cyclists had a 19% lower risk of all-cause dementia, a 22% lower risk of Alzheimer's, a 40% lower risk of young-onset dementia (before the age of 65), and a 17% lower risk of late-onset dementia.” Getting around a bike more often could reduce dementia risk.

fuck it, here’s the unhinged phil meeyup valentine I created and shared in the groupchat

Libraries aren't supposed to be quiet.

Oh, we stood by.

Design streets acknowledging kids exist.

Coughs in “no viable transit”

You don’t have to be a Jeopardy champ to know that a lot more housing, and in particular affordable housing, needs to be build. But it doesn’t hurt to be a Jeopardy champ.

Good morning from Seattle and my hostel's bike parking.

your grandparents voting for reagan

It's the fucking law that drivers have to stop for pedestrians in crosswalks you victim blaming assholes

That's right

Evening flights are cursed. What do you mean I have to wait all day filled with anxiety before I can leave?

The way journalists cover traffic violence is seriously broken

life is so beautiful when you don't have to find parking

you vs the guy she tells you not to worry about

This whole campaign has been a hell of a lot of work but TC Comms WG has been incredible and I wouldn't want to do it alongside anyone else!

Please clap.

maybe columbus ought to do more thinking and less wexner

A viral dog rescue from 2016 is now immortalized with a statue in Kazakhstan. When a dog fell into the Sayran reservoir, bystanders formed a human chain to pull him to safety. The statue is a reminder of the value of unity, solidarity and collective action. 14/10 for all

I said I wanted to win trash trivia and we almost did but missed out by a half-point. Regardless, second place was pretty damn good! Thanks, @trevinflickinger.com @matt-r-kaufman.bsky.social, @brett614.bsky.social and Edward for fielding the team! It was a fabulous time.

There are fixes to our deadly roads. Our leaders need to find the courage to act

Checked on my bike during trivia only to find that it had a friend that also had a milk crate! (And yes, I did tell the person they left their lights on).

HAPPY BIG BOAT STUCK WEEK.

I have learned what brain zaps are and I don't like them.

Columbus Metropolitan Library workers are proud of their jobs, proud of their co-workers, and proud of their union! They began wearing union pins this week as they continue to organize for their union election later this spring!
