Nature is healing

Making it safer and easier for people to travel by bike helps to address transport poverty.

Cycle lanes, like this one in Glasgow, connecting communities to the city centre, reflect the everyday journeys that people make, helping them to get from home to work, school, shops and vital services.

The solution to e-bike/pedestrian conflicts is to build better infrastructure that will allow for separation between cyclists and walkers

The best part of any bad movie's Wikipedia page is like "the film reviewed badly at the time, criticized for its pacing, script, acting and cinematography.[23][24][25][26] Box office receipts were also below expectations.[27][28] However, it has since developed a cult following.[citation needed]"

QTP with a red haired girl!

Nothing is ever a Republican's fault to a Republican.

Doctor to patient: "Try to reduce your stress level, and if you somehow succeed please let me know how in God's name you did it."

I thought this felt relatable

idk I just feel like a neurotypical God wouldn’t make that many lizards

A Nissan Sentra weighs a little more than 3,000 pounds (I picked a small, common car)

An Aventon Level 3 E-bike weighs 67 pounds (plus rider weight)

These things do not pose remotely the same risk when traveling at 28 mph. I am begging people to understand basic physics.

New rule: you are not allowed to call any house over $500,000 a “fixer upper.” For half a million dollars it best be fixed.

that ... is a different way of calculating percentages, I'll give him that

Ever since Newt Gingrich rose to House leadership in the late 1980s, Republicans have had aggressive churn on their membership, which has made them the younger caucus on the Hill even if their voting base skews older.

i genuinely think that a lot of anti-vax sentiment is just cover for a phobia of needles

The handful of very elderly Republicans in office is less of a concern because they have constant churn in their ranks because of a strong culture of primarying incumbents and term limits on committee leadership.

Democrats really need to learn how to retire before they expire.

The 1990s were a very long time ago. The youngest people born in that decade were eligible to run for the House themselves in the last election. The oldest could run for president.

this is maga mentality in a nutshell, only they are real people with feelings and reactions, everyone else is just a programmed npc there to facilitate their glorious journey. a movement of millions of people united by having the internal voice of a dead rat

in Azabu Juban? that's a youma and Sailor Moon will shortly be arriving

So profoundly moving.

I don't think it's a coincidence that the largest and most despised union in the US is the female-coded National Educators Association.

The war he's told us we already won?

The key thing about the Bluesky team is their singular lack of professionalism. They just don't act like people who run a business that operates a commercial website, they act like users of that site. They're still not willing to give up the idea that this is a clubhouse for Rationalist freaks.

I live in a heavily gerrymandered district in Nashville. People on my same (small!) street are in different districts.

Chatgpt is the opposite of a disability aid. It induces the very problems it claims to help.

It doesn't help autistic people communicate, it makes it *significantly harder* to understand text due to badly and sloppily altering its meaning because it has none.

theyre complicit and all they care about is money

Tom Baker episode. (Aren’t they all?) We’re on a set that’s supposed to be some kind of city carved into stone walls and small caves, except the ground and walls are suspiciously flat and squared off with hard corners and the sunlight looks a lot like studio lighting and the city is surprisingly crowded, as though it’s a small set. A bunch of old white guys are wearing dark brown and mustard yellow robes. One of the guys is sitting in a cave, allegedly in thought, although it kind of just looks like he’s on the toilet. Tegan, Nyssa and Adric are following closely behind three guys, carrying a really small TARDIS. No caption, it just looks a bit silly.

It's just odd how bluesky team did everything they could to recruit the top trans shitposters to the early site but then immediately started pointing at us and going "ick! ew! weird!"

The extant DC statehood plan retains the federal district as simply the area of federal buildings around the National Mall. And if the 1847 retrocession of the Virginia portion of DC met constitutional muster, that would, too.
