Every conversation about bike lanes is like: "Car crashes kill a huge number of people every day, including pedestrians, cyclists, & car occupants. Good bike infrastructure has been shown to make everyone safer (& doesn't increase congestion)." "But sometimes cyclists break rules & hit people!"

☠️ "Russia’s actions are increasingly desperate. Russia is losing about 30,000 soldiers a month. That is, it is losing more in one month than the Soviet Union lost in 10 years of its time in Afghanistan. The numbers are extraordinary," — NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.

@panchromatic.bsky.social I'm also in Perth, have some old stock 35mm film. I've been wondering who I could find that might appreciate it. It's been to the UK and back, mostly in fridges. Now am off to sleep so I can watch the Yrans-Lunar injection burn in the morning.

I can't help thinking the moon orbit mission's name- Integrity- is a not so subtle slap in the face to the orange criminal-in-chief. www.nasa.gov/blogs/missio...

Interesting fact, I always assumed it was because of the golden ratio 😳 but reality is far more interesting.

I've heard a ticket to Melanie now comes with a country-back guarantee if you don't enjoy the regime you bought...

Everything Trump is doing now (from from Portland to Minneapolis to Chicago) is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act. I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but I've been warning for months of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

It’s been one month since 100% of the Epstein files were due by Act of Congress. Thus far they’ve only released .6% of them and are using murder and war to distract you from this fact.

Just a reminder that these times call for everyone who wants a glimpse of understanding of where the people in ICE came from, to read The Lucifer Effect. Spoiler alert: the higher ups who set up the system to encourage and then condone the violence are responsible www.prisonexp.org/book
