Blue cities should tear up the roads in front of ICE facilities and then start decades of community engagement and input sessions to rebuild them. Let's harness our core competencies.

Yukking it up with John Greenfield of @chi.streetsblog.org at the birthday party for @bikelaneuprising.bsky.social at Specialized, 925 W. Lake St. All the cool kids were there! 🚲🚲🚲 #BikeChi @bikegridnow.org

If you’re willing to throw trans people, people of color, and/or the unhoused under the bus while praising white nationalists, I don’t care what your opinion is on literally anything.

What part of EE-LEGAL does he not understand?

Good fvckin’ grief, the Edgewater NIMBYs’ argument is TrAfFiC and pArKiNg. These people are stuck in the 1970s. They want Chicago to decay and decline. Go live in Carol Stream, where there’s plenty of parking, and leave Chicago for people who like other people. @abundanthousingil.bsky.social

Evidence that drivers have no idea what a crosswalk is. This is HBK Engineering, on site to perform underground utility work at 1700 W. Washington Blvd. The driver easily could have parked four feet to the west and not blocked the crosswalk, but to the driver, the crosswalk does not exist.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.

Even though the game coincides with Critical Mass, it’s a busy night at the 35th Street racks. @chicagobikesox.com @chicritmass.bsky.social @bikegridnow.org

Elmont, N.Y. - The Long Island Rail Road hauls ass. This is how you move people, not some dumb highway.

Sahal and me at the White Sox game. When are we gonna do the Wednesday bike bus to the Loop again? 🚲🚲🚲 @chicagobikesox.com @bikegridnow.org

It turns out “good governance” isn’t a vote-getter.

The problem is that almost all drivers are bad drivers, but we can’t tell them that because they all think they’re good drivers. If we don’t address bad drivers - with education, not just enforcement - we’ll never have better drivers. @betterstreetschicago.org chicago.suntimes.com/transportati...

These people want #Pilsen to be a slum. OK nobody can move into Pilsen, that’s bad. Can anyone there move out? If no, then YOU are for segregation. If yes, then you’re for depopulation, empty storefronts, under-enrolled schools and closed parishes. @abundanthousingil.bsky.social

Where’s the Illinois Policy Institute to complain about the powerful teachers’ union in Naperville? Or is the teachers’ union bad only in districts where most of the students are non-white and many come from low-income families?

My friend Opie took some photos of the new Grayland Metra station, located at 3729 N. Kilbourn Ave., serving the Milwaukee District North Line. #BikeChi @betterstreetschicago.org @chi.streetsblog.org

When I come to power, using acronyms without explaining what they mean will result in a $350 fine.
