"I was ABSOLUTELY told that the Democrats would be bringing knives to the gun fight. What the fuck are they doing bringing guns?" --a whole lot of Republicans looking at the results from Virginia right now

The only reason some systems are free (as cited in your link) or inexpensive (e.g. Capital Bikeshare in the DC area) is that they have incredible subsidies from local departments of transportation.
The ones you cite are all trying to turn a profit, which is INCREDIBLY rare in shared micromobility.
We fucking warned y’all that this was the goddamned end goal for those smart glasses.
For me it was "Good Times, Bad Times," and then "Four Sticks." Heard them both when I was 10 or so and... whoa.
"Kashmir" is definitely in my own top-10 list of their catalog, tho.
Owning a car is a privilege. The freedom to move however we choose should be a right for anyone in the USA. I use my bike to get around, and removing bike lanes and other bike infrastructure will create more traffic and less freedom for all. @governor.pa.gov Keep funding bike infrastructure!
Warsh may be a reasonable guy and capable economist just playing a role here. But if integrity and independence are qualities we value in a Fed Chief, he does not have them.
Every nominee who dodges this question tells us that they have no meaningful commitment to American democracy.
Jon Stewart on the cycle of demands and threats toward Iran that make up Trump's "Art of the Deal"
okay, so you know how the dude in doctor strangelove went nuts over purity of essence and his bodily fluids and so forth
that’s not a joke, that’s an actual type of guy
For those attending the White House Correspondents' Dinner this weekend, a small question:
When you're sitting there at your table, do you think it'll cross your mind that the guest of honor is actively covering up his role in a massive child sex trafficking operation?
COLD ALERT ACTIVATED!
It’ll hit possibly freezing temps tonight in DC. There are extra hypothermia shelter beds available!
With someone’s consent, you can call the shelter hotline to have them transported to an open shelter bed — 202-399-7093
This isn’t just about districts — it’s about whether Virginia’s voice counts in Congress. Vote YES tomorrow to counter the national push to rig elections and ensure the General Assembly can deliver fair maps now. The eyes of the nation are on us. Let’s deliver!

Instead of asking other men how to talk to women, men can just... talk to women
Coachella is removing these videos, so they might be about to learn about the Strokesand Effect.
Every authoritarian action Trump is taking must be understood against the backdrop of his declining popularity.
He feigns strength, but he's operating from a place of weakness.
Remember this.
Also: they have a very competitive market in the EU which likely means their margins aren't great. If withdrawing from the market here means they survive then it's a smart move - even if it reduces the ecosystem over here by a measure.
I just hope the market doesn't get flooded with quick-to-market brands with a ton of poorly-built, proprietary, and self-supported products. If there's one way to sour folks to things like utility e-bikes, that's it.
R&M is excellent - dare I say boutique - stuff. Tough market in the US right now.

This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped.
State AGs must step in and block it.
That work is quite visible! And was great to see you and the crew in action today!
Governor Spanberger I am calling on you to reclaim Columbia Island as part of the great Commonwealth of Virginia in order to prevent this monstrosity from being built
Yeah cause it’s the kind of thing you propose building to appease the ego of a narcissistic leader whose army just got its asked kicked by a Black military general (Touissant L’Overture) and Black enslaved people who ran your troops off their island.
It’s a monument to ego and defeat. Perfect.
Yah - nasty one, that!
So many thoughts here, but I can't let them dominate my mind right now or I'd go insane.
Too bad the weather isn't good for a bike ride at the moment.

I'm pretty sure the rest of the Kennedy clan will never, ever want anything to do with this pox of a relative.
The way RFK Jr talks and acts would probably even drive his own father to disown him.

Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded.
“This case is one of a long list of examples of how a leader’s wanton disregard for the rule of law causes very real harm to very real people.”
