Anytime I approach bike lanes showing heavy tire wear I pop up on the sidewalk because I’ve had so many close calls.

Clarence Thomas was in so much debt two decades ago that he tried to get Supreme Court justice salaries raised across the board. Within months, Republican billionaires began giving him extravagant gifts. trib.al/3pvlnGN

The difference between Project 2025 and Trump’s usual authoritarian ravings is that Project 2025 isn’t an empty threat, it’s a concrete plan that will roll back your rights and put the government in your life. We’ve been warned.

Brent Toderian Providing suitable priority to non vehicular traffic (pedestrians,cyclists, etc) to give them space and feel safe.

Brent Toderian I get this one all the time pretending to be my boss. One day I decided to make a burner number and text them and went through the process. Ends up they were just doing an app store card scam.
