I was born, grew up, and lived half my life in Northern New England. If people try to follow the Maine election and invest emotionally in its results it will likely only distress and bedevil them until the results are in, and likely for some time after.

this but unironically. the greater boston area IS conscious

CDOT lost the best of our team yesterday. We're heartbroken. In memory of Riley O'Neil, please refer to these bike racks as "Riley Racks". He led Chicago's bike parking program for several years. Our hearts are broken, but we want to make sure his legacy lives on 💙🚲 Please spread the word

These colors don’t run (due to Amtrak wire, switch, tunnel issues)

People Over Parking Act, as part of NITA, also goes into effect today, a major parking reform that will be statewide. Here are its impacts in Chicago.

happy pride 💕

after a famously embarrassing beige Pride collection last year, Target's very small Pride collection for 2026 is mostly this striped pattern which addresses 1/3 of the criticism form last year: ✅ colors ❌ pride flag or message ❌ not hideous

The BART dragon dance started as a whimsical idea for a wall scroll painting a few years ago, and is now a real life prop that I bring to Bay Area transit-related rallies and celebrations. 🚃🚃🚃

GREG DAVIES: seems like a kind of a shit task. Everyone just seems like they're going home normally. ALEX HORNE: well before you say that let's have a look at how Odysseus did. cut to panel of AJAX, MENELAUS, AGAMEMNON, and DIOMEDES who are all staring at ODYSSEUS with his head in his hands

In rural Zimbabwe, community health workers cycle through heat and elephant territory to deliver HPV vaccines. Over 22,000 girls vaccinated so far. A powerful story of grassroots public health.

Hey so if you're in the USA, the FCC is floating the idea of making shows put a warning up if they include or discuss trans people and trans lives. A short paragraph saying this is messed up would help a lot! You gpt less than a week. Submit your comment by May 22: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...

The City of Ottawa posted the raw speed data from before and after Doug Ford banned speed cameras and the effect is so obvious it's not even necessary put a line marking when that happened. This chart shows the percentage of drivers going 15km/h or more over the posted limit.

This week in In Development: Jakarta added ten million new residents in a decade and traffic got *better*. How? Transit, of course. indevelopmentmag.com/jakarta-tran...

Run, don’t walk, to grocery outlet

This methodology smells like B.S.

Market Street bike lanes in Old City got some green paint and stencils this week. #bikePHL

I used a bike rack this weekend that exists because I complained about it not existing. You can make things better, even just a little.

We will continue to make two-dimensional maps. Because your mind can't handle the truth.

We launch with a piece by Paul Niehaus, on cash transfers, RCTs, and the meaning of empowerment: indevelopmentmag.com/money-for-no...

We've launched In Development! It is aiming to be the New Yorker for global development. We want to promote discourse on development without dogma - stories doing deep-dives into pressing development issues, backed up by evidence, argument, and experience. Subscribe here: indevelopmentmag.com

Last night was amazing. 150-200 riders, Rep Krajewski & @councilmemberjg.bsky.social, a brass band, DJ-on-wheels Ivan Bassnikov, plus miles of protected bike lanes and an afterparty at Clarkville. Thank you ride leader Hanna, coordinator Jo, and our valiant & dedicated marshals!

I'm a big fan of Philly Bike Action's approach to street safety advocacy. They use kindness & fun as a tool, hosting 'parties' with music or giving out free soft pretzels. At the same time they're unafraid to push hard for timely actionable change. billypenn.com/2026/04/14/p...

D.C. also has a cherry blossom protector pledge ….. I’m verklempt

went to check out the techno rave outside Parliament and I don't think I have the data allowance to share a video from it but let me tell you: there sure is a techno rave outside Parliament right now, celebrating Orban getting ousted

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

CAMCORDER DESIGNER: and of course we have saved our most intuitive control for last: ‘T,’ to indicate ‘to zoom in,’ and ‘W,’ to indicate ‘whoa, looks like you want to zoom out’

a “ceasefire” that lasted 17 hours and killed 254 people in lebanon is not a ceasefire and referring to it as one is inaccurate

I submitted a 311 ticket for bike racks to be installed about a month ago and they were installed today! 🚲😀👍 #yycBike #Calgary

A few people have replied to my Artemis posts with links to Gil Scott-Heron's "Whitey on the Moon." Here's a story from Space.com about Artemis II pilot Victor Glover, currently en route to fly around the Moon, and his connection to that piece. www.space.com/space-explor...

We’re starting a new series called “Trials We Love,” in which we'll highlight clinical trials that our team is excited about! Our goal is to draw attention to opportunities to participate in research and share information about impactful trial results!

Bike Parking at No Kings Protest in Boston - March 2026

Regional housing crises are a policy choice. They don't just happen to us.

Researching books to send to a friend who's under the weather and I just think there should be a book equivalent of an Edible Arrangement somehow a Legible Arrangement

Might be the greatest opening paragraph of anything ever.

Not density OR trees. Density AND trees. Better cities are climate action. #UrbanTruth

Omg now I know why someone said "floating rail bridge" as their three word intro at TransportationCamp PHL yesterday

It's only force majeure if it comes from the Majeure region of France. Otherwise it's just a sparkling shitshow.

Today at TransportationCamp PHL I was recognized by people who had seen me 1) visiting the new Philly Pride Visitor Center and 2) participating in Queer Arm Wrestling on Valentine's Day. Good stuff.
