Then why am I quoting someone who is bewildered at the decrease in engagement?
March 25, 2025 at 8:02 PM
Did I say politics? It's anything. I follow people for urbanism and I get selfies on my feed like it's 2008 Facebook again. Why TF would I interact with that?

Want engagement on this site? Post engaging stuff lol

Most of y'all put a buncha crap in your bio and then don't post that stuff. I've been spending the whole month unfollowing people who do that.
I love BlueSky, I think not only that it will succeed but that it already has, every time I open up X I’m more and more disgusted, but…what’s up with this? bsky.jazco.dev/stats

A compact cargo bike would do 99% of single able bodied people just fine! But for families I'd recommend at least one front loader between both parents for the passenger space alone.

I love 26" wheels on my 52cm touring bike, and my 26/20 ebike wheels. I think they're both technically 52cm but the ebike is only available in one size

Take: smaller bike frames should have smaller wheels and bigger frames should have bigger wheels. Using the same size wheel for every size bike changes the geometry, making each size a whole different bike.

I think she just needed a bit of convincing, our leaders are all capable of this.

This is why we never hang out or talk isn't it 😭😭

What? Have you happened to cycle anywhere in the USA besides Portland?

"Prevailing U.S. policy, funding mechanisms, and culture favors less travel choice, more car dependence, rising vehicle traffic, and more traffic fatalities. These outcomes are not flukes; they’re consequences. But Portland is making different choices" that's rather damning words coming from a DOT

My finance app just updated with yearly spending totals so now I know I only spent $886 on transportation between bikes rideshare transit and shared ebikes. Everyone with a car is getting ripped off!

Maybe? There was a giant plaza across the street and it was only a few blocks from the ocean.

Oh and @ Seattle wow what an incredible city man
March 19, 2025 at 8:45 PM
The place that served me this just had a sign that said "BAR"

Had a great time mobbing up with @climateandtransit.bsky.social to Seattle taking 80% local transit from Portland!

I really wonder how much of the health gap between wealthy and poor Americans is actually an air quality gap.
you know how i keep harping on the mayor's comp plan limiting density to arterials?

this is the filter on a passivhaus over a block off MLK.

the dirty one was replaced 24 february.

20 days.

the white one is what it looks like brand new. due to road particulates, needs to be changed monthly.
