It’s kinda simple, really.

Cargo biking, 99 years ago. Came across this in a photo archive, unfortunately with no info on who or where, just the year, 1926. But it made me think of @lauragmitchell.com and her lovely feed of her commutes to school and around town with her children.

all the respect to the first person who figured out how to cook and eat an artichoke, that shit wasn't self-evident

I don’t have all the answers. I’m just a St. Paulinator who loves her city, hates Amy K., needs a new pinned post, will delete all the political stuff after Tuesday, and only rates toilet paper. ✌🏻❤️🧻

I hope future generations recognize how quickly and strangely the contours of what counts as a political scandal changed for this president.

It just hit me! Bondi is a Star Wars Villain! #StarWars #Andor @markhamillofficial.bsky.social

Welcome to YOU SHOULDN’T. Here are things you shouldn’t do: - Steal jewels from the Louvre - Unilaterally destroy the east wing of the White House or any other public housing structure - Get a huge Nazi tattoo - Ever want to get a huge Nazi tattoo. You just SHOULDN’T. This has been YOU SHOULDN’T

I’m calmer when I can travel at walking/biking speeds and take in my surroundings… like this pretty yellow canopy of leaves.

The older woman cutting my son’s hair this morning told me I should listen to this NPR story. She was very interested in the cargo trike described.

As the Trump administration continues its crackdown, millions across the US are expected to hit the streets for this weekend's "No Kings" protest. If that includes you or your loved ones, here's a 🧵 of guides to follow to protest safely in the age of surveillance. wrd.cm/4lEVQu9

Building cities in ways that forces people to own & use a car for most/all trips was a very bad idea (& limits mobility for millions). Americans deserve the freedom to safely, comfortably and efficiently travel in cities via whatever mode best fit their needs & the trip.

Fun fact: humans aren’t made of sugar and we don’t melt in the rain. If you show your kids how to dress for the weather, they learn quickly and may even enjoy it! My 7yo on our rainy walk this AM: “the leaves look so pretty falling from the trees w/ the rain drops.” ☔️ 🍂

“We can give $20 billion to Argentina but we can’t afford the CDC’s measles experts” is a hell of an argument

This is definitely THAT weekend in MN when you can’t fit in all the things that are happening outdoors, but you sure as hell try!

Big news if true 🤩

Hoping I don’t freeze my ass off tonight 🤩

So much fun riding around St Paul tonight, dumb dangerous concrete bollards back blocking the Shepard bike path not withstanding. Thanks to @joyfulridersclub.bsky.social for bringing the party!

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Health insurance shouldn't exist, and healthcare is what you provide to anyone needing healthcare... WTF is hard about any of this 🤷‍♂️

this makes me really happy #Weekwithoutdriving

No women, no safety Women on bikes are the indicator species of a city’s cycling health. If you don’t see many of us, it’s not about lack of interest — it’s about safety. Day 13 of the #carfreechallenge2025 #yegbike @bikeology.bsky.social

I'll take "Things wind farms don't do" for 300, Alex.

First day of #WeekWithoutDriving was a breeze. I’m glad MPLS is taking strides to make it easier to live car-free. This yearly event challenges us to put ourselves in the shoes of kids, elders, disabled and justice impacted people who don’t have cars and/or licenses. Join us!

My daughter just took the Borealis yesterday & is enjoying a day in Chicago before heading back tomorrow. Her pictures have been so much fun.

E-bike subsidy programs are one of those perfect policies with zero downsides. Accessible, healthy, low cost, and moves people away from car use. AND IT MAKES PEOPLE REALLY HAPPY!!

🚨🚨 news 🎉 "the official #Novavax finder site has been released! This is probably one of the best places to find Novavax JN.1 in 2025-26" per @friesein.bsky.social on Twitter Link to Novavax finder website: www.nuvaxovid.com/vaccine-loca... Link to src tweet in next post (in case you care)

Most Americans need a deeper understanding of our Constitution. The National Constitution Center offers free, outstanding resources for all ages including Zoom calls, lectures, & discussions with scholars, historians, and politicians. The more you know…😉 constitutioncenter.org

The Blue Line's outage is a stark reminder of the efficiency of rail transit. Just to provide a basic replacement service, Metro Transit has had 25-30 replacement buses out at a time, more than double the usual number of trains on the line, and the end-to-end trip time is also double!

Intense, dancing aurora last night from my driveway in North Pole, Alaska. The best display I have seen this season by far. Check out this real-time motion!

Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:

IT'S OFFICIAL: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York State, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and New York City have formed the Northeast Public Health Collaborative. The collaborative will issue their own vaccine recommendations and coordinate public health efforts.

Great periodic reminder!

I am so in!

We were in Minneapolis this past weekend, and checked out the Minneapolis Cargo Bike Library (@mplscargobikelibrary.com) - an amazing community asset to help spread biking, through free access to cargo bikes! youtu.be/qxzL7mKbr00?...

Uh hey, a heads up: This is probably a good time to make sure that you go into settings on your profiles and make sure that "autoplay video" is turned off. Setting labels like 'violence' to "hide" or "don't show" is likewise a good idea if you don't want to see the TPUSA shooting by accident.

It is still the guns.

Your religious beliefs can dictate what you do and how you live your life, that’s fine…. But that should have ZERO affect on how I live my life, who I love, how my kids are taught or if I have healthcare or not. That’s crazy
