Why do we bike?

Climate, affordability, sociability, peace on earth, fun, comfort & joy🚲

Even e-cars are built with and rely on fossil fuel energy.

The people of Venezuela, Nigeria, Libya, Canada, Saudi Arabia, Russia, United States might all be better off if we could just leave it in the ground.

*codec call* snake, that's a monster energy drink. it increases your stamina, but be careful because it also drains your psyche after drinking it. make sure you eat other food as well, snake! you can't survive on nothing but energy drinks alone.

Please be aware of possible scams! My client, Mel Curth, is not seeking any donations at this time. She is grateful for your support and instead requests folks that want to help to donate to the local organizations of your choice!

I think we need to reclaim Christmas. The one holiday a year we have that is supposed to encourage charity, community, and kindness, and we just let these vapid hateful people who make this time of year miserable just take it over? Fuck that.

Loads of British Columbians who spent all year advocating for the death of people in the Downtown Eastside whenever safe supply or housing comes up are about to sit down with their families to watch A Christmas Carol and shake their head disapprovingly when Scrooge talks about the surplus population

My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

Hey, fellow constituents of Vancouver-Quilchena who hate that this woman is representing us:

A reminder that on April 20th, 2026 we can apply to do a recall petition, and if we get 40% of the riding to sign it we can remove her and have a byelection.

Many city halls are deep in budget-time. Some are pushing austerity ideologies, and are ignoring the difference between costs and cost-savers/value creators. Citizens, PAY ATTENTION, and never forget that the TRUTH about a city’s REAL aspirations isn’t found in its visions. It’s found in its budget.

Fuck RMS forever
⸻ I GREW UP a tomboy, climbing trees, making mudpies, and splashing in ponds, so I know what happens when you turn over rocks that haven’t been disturbed in a long time: when daylight hits the creepy-crawly things underneath, it makes them squirm. When the deposition in which I named the late MIT scientist Marvin Minsky among my abusers became public, for example, a colleague of Minsky’s blasted out an email to a mailing list for MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. In the email, renowned computer scientist Richard Stallman suggested that I had been a willing participant in my encounter with Minsky. Stallman questioned whether Minsky “applied force or violence” and seemed to be arguing that if he did not, I must have opted in. “The most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing,” Stallman wrote of me. Stallman was criticized by some who received this email, but still it was clear that not everyone agreed that the girls and women whom Epstein and Maxwell trafficked to others were victims who deserved compassion. “They took the money, didn’t they?” was the most common refrain from people in this camp—as if someone can’t be victimized while being paid two hundred dollars. While I wasn’t pen pals with people who believed these things, their opinions reached me through social media and, occasionally, through email. My point: Stallman wasn’t alone in his skepticism. Just as Stallman defended Minsky, many friends and colleagues of MIT Media Lab director Joichi Ito defended him after it was revealed that he had cultivated a close (and lucrative) relationship with Epstein. Ito apologized, and for a

A fun first night in Vancouver on our LIFE AFTER CARS book tour. Got to hang with @tomflood.bsky.social @visionzerovancouver.ca @lucymaloney.bsky.social. So cool to see the Vision Zero campaign Tom designed on a billboard!
