I would like to see rightful annoyance about food delivery robots turn into a larger cultural reckoning about food delivery

“Over on Twitter, they’re” shhhhh. Shhh.

Shh.

Wow guys! Wow! It's almost like! That thing I keep saying! That robotaxis like Waymo will massively increase VMT, entrenching car dependency in such a way that any safety gains are negated by the extension of the car-dependent world rather than investment in public transit and good urbanism! Hmmmmm!

it is wild that May Day isn't an official city, state, or federal holiday in the place that Haymarket actually happened

Vegan Sloppy Joes Did your parents ever make you sloppy joes growing up? If so, welcome to the club. If not, I'm sorry, you poor neglected soul. (Just kidding, but also

The best sloppy joes recipe I have is vegan made from lentils. minimalistbaker.com/vegan-sloppy...

A digital illustration done in simple contour lines and rough pencil coloring on neutral tinted paper background of a woman reclining on a surface in a faint. Seen from a foreshortened angle from her knees and feet. She’s laying on one hip with her torso twisting to supine. The back of one hand lays across her forehead and the other is held limply on her ribs. Her head is back and her red curls spread out on the ground around her. She’s wearing a white, voluminous and old fashioned night dress. Orange lettering in an Art Nouveau style to the right reads ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

I love getting tourism ads for Illinois while living in Illinois

Are all these other peeps stickering tall? I need a step stool to reach some of the good signpost spots.

My bike team has sponsors that mostly work like how bar sponsors the softball team that drinks at the bar.

I didn't actually see the challenge til after posting!

The Vince McMahon meme: Having friends Having friends who live near you Having friends who live near you and take transit Running into your friends on the bus

Ran into @rozphy.bsky.social on the red line

A Swale south of the Indiana dunes. The picture is taken close to the water, with plants sticking out, but the whole picture is gloomy from the rain that will hit 5 minutes after taking this picture.

Dune Swale forever problems for now

Looks like a canva flyer someone made in 5 mins for the wake of an uncle they didn’t really like

I used peregrine for my last fit because Steven is so far from me, but I'll use Steven for my next one. Everyone on my bike team recommends him too.

Thank you both

I'm hanging out with a 20 something this weekend and it brings me great joy to see them attacking life like a twenty something and flouncing about twenty something problems.

all I want is to defeat our shared enemies and salt their fields so their hatred can never bloom again! is that so much to ask?????

Dennis Watkins magic show in a pretty expensive loop theater (under the Goodman) is good.

He's got a similar stubborn streak though

Low cloud level over millennium Park

Looking out toward a foggy Lake Michigan from the back side of Madonna Della Strada Chapel on the campus of Loyola University in Chicago.

Foggy lake forever.

I'm not very interested in regulating the speed of any vehicle while cars are far and away the cause of speed related death and damage

The question for mayors is not "do police run your city" but "will you be motivated and able to contain/limit the power of the police who run your city"

The emoto dirt bikes I encountered in the loop in the bike lane were all driven by very polite teens, but they were clearly out of place, even compared to the delivery ebikes.

Best case scenario, someone else has made a fund making the bet you want, and they're not charging high fees (>1% depending on how esoteric) to be a part of it.

Wanting to bet against something instead of on something is definitely do-able in our complex finance sector, but oftentimes it's riskier to do, or you make a more complex investment like nik suggested excluding the things you don't like.

And what happened after that?

In 7 years they've completed 25% of the federal consent decree that initially gave them 5 years to do 100%. On a pace where by 2041 Chicago might have the minimally acceptable by law police force.

@oofd.org Hootenanny fundraiser is TOMORROW at Midwest Coast brewing 2137 W. Walnut st. Tickets still available. At great party & a great local Chicago biking organization.
