True. The volume of bike, scooter and other wheeled traffic has grown so much that it has outgrown that space.

Yeah, that's a real issue in some spots.

And here's the newly relocated @divvybikes.bsky.social station on Madison just W of Dearborn. #bikechi

I figured that some of that would happen.
November 25, 2025 at 6:35 PM
We'll see how this one works out. Given the volume of traffic in the bike lane, I hope it doesn't end up being a hazard. @davidpowe.bsky.social

I'm glad that Two Mile is still alive and kicking at 99th & Walden.

Unfortunately the 95th St. spot was much more dependent on commuter traffic, which was knocked down to a minimum during the pandemic and never bounced back enough.

This reminds me of visiting Sloss Furnaces in Birmingham AL and seeing their metal arts program in action.

FYI about #Montrose Beach and snowy owls - crowds have gotten big and some folks aren't giving the owls space. Please respect the pier closure and stay back. #Chicago #birders

Let me sum it up for non-military folks:

Senator Mark Kelly didn’t violate any military laws. None.

Hegseth’s little bitch ass has been ordered by Trump to retaliate against Sen. Kelly for speaking out, and Hegseth does what Daddy tells him to do.

That’s all this is.

Trip chaining isn't just for cars, especially when the bike has cargo capacity.

During farmers market season, I ride to the market, drop off perishables at home, ride to the coffeehouse, then continue - leisure, grocery shopping, etc.
November 23, 2025 at 4:12 PM
We have 2 good coffeehouses within easy walking distance. I often like to ride there, stop for a bit, then continue my ride.

πŸ“± Using your #RightToRecord!

In the U.S.– no matter what your immigration status is– you have the right to record immigration enforcement agents. This is a powerful tool for exposing their tactics, combatting abuse, and fighting detention.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

New from me: I talked to CDC staffers about the new vaccines and autism page. They said things like:

β€œThe best way I can put it is it feels like we’re on a hijacked airplane.”

β€œI think people are starting to see that we can’t fulfill our mission here.”

A win! A federal judge has halted a Trump administration plan that relied on confidential tax records to target migrants for deportation. In a ruling issued today, the judge said the IRS improperly shared the tax information of several migrants earlier this year.
