My friend is dead. A driver, through neglect, recklessness or malice, has killed Louisa. I’m beside myself with grief and filled with righteous anger at a city that has stalled and slow-walked safety improvements for all road users. Louisa should be here with us.

This one hits close to home. Boston needs to be better and make roads safer for all vulnerable road users. I’m incensed. I’m sad, and also incandescent with rage over yet another preventable death on Boston’s streets

Fan Fest at City Hall Plaza! You should go. It is free. Just cop some tix and go, you won’t regret it!

What’s everybody up to this weekend? Anybody wanna hang?

Pizza nite

New Girl is a good TV show and it makes me happy :)

Remember, cars are fascist. Even EV cars! Ride a bike! Take the bus! Ride a train! Walk! Consolidate errands!

I journal so infrequently that I’m still working in a journal I started in 2013

I bought all this and brought it home by bicycle. #bikesmeanbusiness #smallbusiness #bikeboston

Are there Cherry Blossoms in Greater Boston?

I saw two cyb*rtrucks on my way home yesterday and I’m still mad about it

(motor vehicle) traffic was rough biking home at 7pm. What was up tonite?

Riding in a light coat of snow over the bigger snow was hella pretty this morning. I’d share pics, but I took them on film :p

Be the change you wish to see in the world. Get your friends together and shovel out a snowed-in bike lane

Forgot to tweet about The Muppet Show on this platform

Last night biking home another biker said I had a “fucking filthy track stand” 👌👌👌

Frankenstein was good!

I am becoming convinced that autonomous vehicles are designed to solve the problem of "I live in a wealthy suburb but have a horrible car commute and don't want to drive anymore but also hate trains and buses and refuse to ride a bike."

Safety infrastructure works! Protect me please!

Hey, man—I just wanted to let you know that we're all pulling for you. We know it's tough, but we all believe in you and know that one of these days, you'll finally figure this whole "turn signal" thing out. All of us are praying for you and have faith that you'll learn how to drive eventually.

Just remembered this flowchart I made many years ago for Twitter. Still very relevant to BlueSky.

This is also bad

Worth a read folks. If you are a cyclist here is some mythbusters you can use against car brained folks. #Winnipeg #ActiveTransportation momentummag.com/your-comebac...

Anybody else notice that it’s not as hot on streets with lots of trees and that trees are freely available literally everywhere around you and all they want to do is grow?

It’s a 2-Benadryl kinda night

I’m just gonna come to terms with showering twice today

Usually happens when I'm riding a bike. Those things fix moods so reliably

This is incredibly sad. Feels So Good is the first song I listened to on the morning of my wedding. That song always lifts my spirits and I owe much to this man and his music

Do It Yourself Revolution is a platform and movement that designs beautiful 3D printed objects (like fans, speakers, lamps), that you can then 3D print at home (or in a fablab) yourself. They want to challenge mass production with nicely simple objects. And I love their large fan! diyr.dev/

What a lovely way to spend the day! #opennewbury

I would like more people to be aware of this. This is a scary development in the right-wing nuts are lost in the sauce category

Soft launching my new Polaroid obsession, brought to you by a $20 estate sale find

My whole team at work has been scrambled to install a TV in an underused space on campus…

There was the news seller all shaven and shorn, a harried, married man all tattered and torn, a once-kissed maiden now sadly forlorn, as the rider passed by on a day newly born, and each was tooted with a dandy #bicycle horn. Once upon a time, there were grand selections for the trusty steel steed.

I’ll grimace at each car I pass on my bike in my 100-degree commute home for radiating even more heat with the ~3,000 tiny controlled explosions per minute required to move them.

I can’t go to bed yet, I haven’t steeped my brain in toxic mush for long enough…

Me every time I bike or walk on a busy street nowadays just imagining the headline of my death story

Farmers’ market szn Summer Matthew is here

Fuck yeah!!!

Goated elected official move.

one better understands urban historians’ and architecture critics’ disgust at the density of the city at midcentury when one remembers there weren’t any environmental regulations

Fun. playing at the cafe this morning is a good omen

Not sure what a sticker reading “Caution: senior driver” is supposed to mean other than “we need to improve our transit system”

Bike to work day was a blast!!! My favorite day of the year!!!

Live every day like it’s Bike to Work Day.

As I said on MSNBC, in 1960 white evangelical christians accused JFK that he would put the Pope over our Constitution. Today we have a new Pope who supports our Constitution more than our current President. And the white christians support this anti-constitutional President and attack the Pope.

Great quotes from @biknmusicmama.bsky.social out there advocating hard for bike and ped safety improvements!

I’ve basically spent the weekend microdosing Parmesan and I am so happy
