Worst thing that happened to me was a guy idled in the street to block the Greenway and yell about stop signs. He was angry. I was annoyed. I don't think he knew about the new Idaho stop law. That was truly no big deal.

There’s bluffing, like, I don’t really have the inside straight, and bluffing like I’m not actually going to kill you, but I want you to think I might … ? I’m glad you’re fine.

The worst that ever happened to me was one stopped in the middle of an intersection to lecture me about stop signs. I was very annoyed. Enraged, really. Not fearing for my life, though.

It’s scary AF when drivers don’t yield to bikes, so I vastly prefer protected lanes. But mostly, they do.

This feels so true. But what surprised me when I started bike commuting was that the majority of drivers are fine sharing the road. There’s such hostility on Facebook, Twitter and Nextdoor toward cyclists, I expected to feel like a NPC in GTA, but, mostly, drivers yield when they’re supposed to.

So true! It’s 30 minutes steady pedaling vs. 25 minutes in stop and go traffic.

I’ve started biking to work from Mpls to St. Paul when the weather’s nice, which I absolutely would not do without protected bike lanes. I’m sure there are tons of others like me, I’m not some sort of pioneer here. The bike lanes are getting cars off the roads too, I think.

I agree. Volumes feel lower, the redesigned streets feel safer to drive on (although, yes, slower at times) with stupidity restricted. It’s nicer for residents of the city getting from place to place rather than someone trying to get through or in and out, maybe?

Geese are vicious, territorial, and bite people. What kind of tough love bullshit is it to put them in a children’s game? MN: where we love our children.

I loved that novel. If it’s any consolation, I didn’t think it was all that hopeful, just a realistic smidgen of hope. It was beautiful and heartbreaking.

"Sun dog" doesn't sound very Midwestern to me. I mean, I know they're not solely Midwestern, but also if they were, I'm pretty sure they'd be called something else.

This design kind of reminds me of a bird barfing up its dinner for its baby. It’s way better than a design that kind of reminds me of genocide, though.

I loved this story so much after all those post-apocalyptic “Guess we’ll all do cannibalism” tropes.

Oh, me too. When I actually was 16, I think I mostly listened to an old Violent Femmes cassette that someone's brother brought back from college. It was a music desert in western Wisconsin.

South Uptown: We had a third as many as last year. The best was some teenager dressed as a vintage black + white clown who just stood on the porch smiling, holding an open garbage bag. I'm going to make sure he's gone before I go to bed.

The Bde Maka Ska pavilion may be open, or I may have crashed a private event. They were serving food and also still surrounded by a chain link fence.
