As ICE continues to terrorize our communities, kidnapping our neighbors, 9 cyclists came together this morning at 6am to buyout 5 vendors and donate the food to a local shelter. They went home safe, hungry ppl were fed, this is #BikeChi ✊🏽

Legalize It

You ever find a place on google maps and go like "damn, I need to visit"

If the shooter had killed a leftist podcaster, he would have a multi million dollar Go Fund Me to cover his legal fees tomorrow, and an interview lined up with Charlie Kirk.

NIMBYs: WE MUST SAVE EDGEWATER FROM SIX STORY BUILDINGS NEXT TO THE CTA Edgewater:

This detour significanly defreases my saftey on my new commute. Please write to Ald. Scott Waguespack and CDOT encouraging them to phase the construction of the bridge so that half can remain open to pedestrains and cyclists and/or to add a temporary protected bike lane on North and Fulerton.

Happy to announce that after 2 years of an unfortunately located job I had to drive to, I've gotten a new job I can bike to. The entirety of the 606 will be part of my daily commute.

Feeling good about the choice I made to install RO in my rental.

People want to treat the Lincoln Yards area as a transit desert when it actually has much better rail access today than much of the city. There are multiple stops served by multiple lines within a half mile, they're just in need of more pleasant pedestrian connections than what exists today.

Biked all day today. It was very joyous. I took lots of film photos, went to a job interview, and transported my cat to the vet.

Happy independence from America day to me. Ahora estoy un ciudadano de España completamente documentado. 🇪🇸🎉🇪🇺

First they came for the Latinos, but I did not speak out - because I am a White Basque. J.k. I'm speaking the fuck up. The only good fascist is a dead one. If they get to say it about Latinos then I definitely get to say it about them and their shitty racist ideology.

What the hell are we even doing here.

best part of the chicago protest was hands-down this L train driver showing us support while we marched under the tracks

While I respect people who choose to conceal their identity at protests for their own safety. I am choosing not to as I feel having my identity public is an important part of fully exercising my first amendment rights.

i hope he does this. i would love so much if there was a new rightwing party in the US that only ever gets 6% of the national vote. that’d be so sick

Getting a camera to spy on my cat while I am at work has been great. Happy to learn she does actually use the window mount Catio I lovingly built for her, just not when I'm home as she'd rather sit on me when I'm home.

Just paid 25% more to fly Air Iberia instead of United Airbus instead of Boeing Layover in Madrid instead of Newark

Oh neat! Got a photo credit.

Is Cowboy Carter a major player in the cowboy scene? Does he go to the reservation drink and get mean?

Men will literally go to AI therapy instead of going to therapy.

Making a playlist called "Bands with names to roll your eyes along to". So far I've got: - Car Seat Headrest - Neutral Milk Hotel - Broomheads Jacket Reply with any recommendations. Specifically I'm looking for names with ~3 seemingly random words.

Happy it's warm but sad I never bothered to use my fireplace this winter.

I will eat the BUGS. I will read @garethdennis.bsky.social in the OBB Night Jet POD. Farum🇩🇰➡️Copenhagen🇩🇰➡️Hamburg🇩🇪➡️Innsbruck🇦🇹➡️Verona🇮🇹➡️Mirandola🇮🇹

So cool that the two things I ever used my Google phone's voice assistant for (starting a timer and starting navigation when my hands aren't free) now instead give me generative AI nonsense instead of doing the thing I asked it to and it used to be capable of doing.

Exciting week to be flying out of O'Hare. At least it's an Airbus.

I think everyone has a different "Oh this guy doesn't know what the hell he's talking about" moment for elon. Usually it's when he talks about a domain you have knowledge in. LIDAR was that moment for me. Self driving cars need better Federal safety regulation. And we won't be getting any time soon.

The real reason Tesla insists on not using LIDAR. LIDAR manufacturing is still woke.

When I say "get in the box" in my cat voice and my cat gets in the box and winks at me.

Wow now, your telling me the same fucker who is vocally pro eugenics, thinks black people aren't skilled enough to be hired without DEI, backed replacement theory, backs the AFD, hates trans people, and is ok with genocide; also did a Nazi salute. That's crazy. Totally out of character /s.

The dog whistle is designed to give them plausible deniability. To let fascists know they are ideologically aligned and make centrists think we are crazy when we call them fascists. Now that its served is purpose, they can drop the pretense and say who they are with their chest.

Train Adventure Booked. This one has been on my ToDo list for a couple years.

I will sleep in the pod. I will eat the bugs.

Complete and high resolution version of my Pedway Map is now live as a pdf on my website: chicagopedwaymap.com

Bluesky is so refreshing. It's like stepping into a time machine to the early days of social media when following someone actually meant you'd reliably see their posts instead of just the ones the algorithm wants you to see.

What's more embarrassing? My handwriting or that I went to a bar and forgot to take this off.

Lots of foaming this weekend. Will eventually upload a YouTube video of footage from the cab if you're interested in that kind of thing. Same @ as my Twitter

Is it selfish to set up your personal and your alt when so many people need to be saved from X and there are so few invite codes for bsky?
