As I cheer on the Seahawks today, I’m also thinking about one of my very best friends, Beau Morton, who left this world suddenly and unexpectedly last week.

This unsolicited spam email writer typed this while wearing a backwards baseball cap and sitting on a backwards chair. You know, like how us A-players sit in chairs.

I’m not usually one to brag about how much better my tech is than yours, but my iPhone is so old it can’t update to iOS 26 or run any AI features.

I need you to know that Bainbridge Island has a version of "find it fix it" and that anyone can look at the submissions people send in.

I also need you to see this:

“'Bicycling goes at the speed of sociability. ... It’s the speed of saying hi, or seeing a dog, or seeing a neighbor, or stopping to chat. It can take you as far as a 747, or three blocks … It’s kind of the coolest machine that I think has ever been made.'” www.seattletimes.com/pacific-nw-m...
Seattle bike shop clubhouse is the antithesis of corporate slick
Bicycling is as much a lifestyle as it is a mode of transportation for the owner of a 20year-old Central District shop that combines wheels and gears with music and neighbors.

WSDOT: Hi SEPA we want to build a massive "diverging diamond" interchange on I-90 at SR-18 to facilitate additional sprawl is that cool?
SEPA: Sounds fine to me

City of Seattle: Hey SEPA, we'd like to allow people to build more homes in the heart of our city
SEPA: Slow down just a minute fella

I don’t know how we could get a good headcount estimate, but the unity rides for Alex Pretti when added together may be the largest coordinated bicycle event in history. Can anyone think of anything comparable?

…and one that I usually can’t ride my bike down. It was gratifying, and liberating. My neighbors refreshed my hope that a better world is possible. Thank you. 💕

Together, we took the streets and rode through Downtown, Pioneer Square, Central District, CID, and Capitol Hill. With the sheer size of the group, we were able to take on Rainier Ave— a street that has claimed the lives of too many of our neighbors from vehicle collisions…

Critical Mass Seattle organized a unity ride for Alex Pretti where Seattle’s cycling community truly came together. Over a thousand people turned out with a clear message: Fuck ICE.

So many people showed up for this ride for Alex Pretti and it was pretty awesome.

Totally worth the extra 30 some mile ride to get there and back.

The group bike ride for Alex Pretti is about to depart in Minneapolis, stopping at his memorial, then Renee Good’s, and finishing at the VFW. If you can join, hop on anywhere. It’s a warm 17° & sunny!

I’ve never seen this many cyclists for a group ride. ⚡️✊🏽⚡️🚲⚡️✊🏽⚡️ #RIPPretti

This is beautiful to see. There is so much darkness right now and my heart is heavy, but this brings me hope.

The Critical Mass Seattle cyclists group gathered in Seattle’s Westlake shopping district to ride for #alexpretti. Cyclists around the country are joining to ride tonight.
Alex Pretti was an avid cyclist in his off time.

It's amazing, the feeling of community you find riding bikes alongside other folk who show up for their community and values - and hapilly join in yelling "FUCK ICE" through the streets 🚲
