As you steel yourself for today's news and navigating this crueler, more precarious world in general, perhaps you might find inspiration in the magpies of Antwerp who looked at anti-bird spikes and thought "I could build a nest with that" (research and pix by @aukeflorian.nl)
Be ungovernable, like birds who build their nests OUT OF ANTI-BIRD SPIKES. New study (📷s by author Auke-Florian Hiemstra) describes Antwerp magpies' "fuck you" to evil architecture: a nest of 1,500 stolen metal spikes 🧪 https://www.hetnatuurhistorisch.nl/organisatie/publicaties/deinsea/deinsea-21/

Years ago we had the mayor bike to school with my 6 year old, within the first :30 seconds they were almost hit by a driver on live TV.
Every leader should be required to ride a bike (if able) with a 6 year old before they provide any direction on bike infrastructure.
