My sole experience with Linux has been people saying “oh it’s SO GOOD…ok wait it’s…hold on…something is…” when they attempt to like join a zoom call.

Last day to fill out this survey!

bike racks overflowing at tall oaks

vdot is looking to reconfigure a busy intersection with lots of bike/ped traffic, and it hasn't occurred to them to include a protected bike lane. take a minute to read the livable cville recommendations and take the survey, even if your entire response is "protected bike lanes"!

I don't think children should have phones. They should have huge beige desktop computer with "Windows 9x Operating System", "Dedicated 3D accelerator", and "SoundBlaster compatible sound card"

new bike just donated from lectric. skeleton unrelated.

it's very pretty, and it has turn signals!

i got to try @nat4cville.bsky.social's new velotric e-bike at sounds of summer yesterday. it's a solid entry-level bike with a low frame that makes it easy to get on and off. it's also $80 off with discount code AC50TJVJ6XN3, which makes it one of the best deals i've seen in a while.

oh

somehow this clearance bike is also eligible for the 10% velotric referral discount, so it's effectively a $540 bike from a legit brand: rwrd.io/ref_IQMJBVA?c

if you've been thinking about an e-bike and the cost has been holding you back, this closeout sale is worth a look. this might be the lowest price i've seen for a UL-listed e-bike with a dealer network.

What does it take to be an e-bike librarian? Here’s Chris, our co-founder, talking about one of our awesome e-bike librarians.

even the laundry machine has gone woke

as of january 2026, two out of five city council members will own this bike, and it's now on a closeout sale. seriously, take a look if you've been thinking of getting an e-bike. www.aventon.com/products/ave....

the e-bike library got a $300 coupon off any velotric bike that we're not going to use. let me know if you want it!

this is on clearance at endeavor cycles for half off. pretty rare to find a bike from an established brand at this price.

Last sold in 1991 for $1.

amtrak’s marketing team gets it

"i want a girl with a short car and a long bike"

the city is posting through it

Our Board of Directors endorses Jen Fleisher for City Council! Jen has extensive public health/public policy experience and **crucially, she is the ONLY candidate in the race who opposes FLOCK surveillance cameras.** These are being abused by ICE and local police to target marginalized people.

Our Board of Directors endorses Sally Duncan for Albemarle Board of Supervisors, Jack Jouett District! Sally is a longtime ally and community advocate (that's her back in 2021 at our housing justice event). Her opponent opposes new housing, even in planned growth areas.

I think more people should know that Jack Jouett candidate Dave Shreve openly supports population reduction and wants to eliminate the child tax credit when people have more than two kids as a means to disincentive larger families.

unless wade and pinkston have changed their minds on flock, i think you have to support fleisher for council on this issue alone

Today is the day - come join us!

local politician david shreve seems to be running on a platform of shrinking the population. i wonder who he thinks shouldn't be allowed to have kids.

for whatever reason, i hear this in brian wilson's voice, to the tune of "caroline, NO!"

ISAAC CHOTINER: It’s just interesting, because my understanding is that you had a pretty good opportunity to destroy the one ring. ISILDUR: No, that’s not— IC: O.K. I: You have to appreciate what was happening. IC: Right. You’re in Mt Doom with the ring— I: Sauron was right there! IC: Sure.

who wants to be the 500th person to sign up for the e-bike library?
