My Twitter audience paid for my dad’s cancer treatment and saved his house. Raised a ton of money for Standing Rock and mpls protests. Got me a book deal. And I’ve learned so much from other people and the friendships I’ve made.

It’s funny cause people tell me *all the time* how they’ve learned from me and found community through my posts and been uplifted and connected to others and gotten tools to recognize and fight hate and felt less alone in the world. But I guess fuck that right? I’m not accomplishing anything.

People I have met on social media have: -grieved with me -sent gifts when my son was born -sent flowers, plants, and meal train food when my brother died -become some of my favorite mom friends to talk about our insane toddlers -referred me to new careers -created art for me

Have had a few folks make a point to connect with me face to face & they've taken the necessary step of either providing a ride or coming to me because that's often the biggest barrier given my dynamic, chronic illness. It's not a coincidence that it's happening with these national tides turning.

Is there an org or something where I could go to get secondhand cat carriers? I know the one we really WANT to get, but if we can get one inexpensive or freely, it'd be great in the meantime so we're not planning to try & stuff a cat in an insulated grocery bag in case of emergency.

Trailering a canoe behind a cargo bike makes for a long vehicle. But it works better than strapping it to the top of a car. #CarryShitOlympics

Something that's clear and very helpful to keep in mind is that I have ZERO influence over what will happen re: who the Democratic nominee will be at the August convention. So I'm going to keep it moving and focus on what I can influence.

Related to this, I have very little influence over what the president does or positions they take. Which is why I focus more energy into races the more local they are. City council, state Rep, even Congress is where we have more influence which flows upstream.

This is what a 7 speed cassette looks like when a rider seldom shifts. 3rd highest sprocket is worn to pointy little shark teeth and all the others are like new. Much respect for this rider 🫡

Heritage and Trump are now backpedaling so fast they are not going to be able to do their normal spin. Trump is project 2025 and project 2025 and the heritage foundation are Trump. Sure appears to be open coordination between the Trump campaign and Heritage.

Last I checked Powecoms are still one of the most highly rated KN95s & this is the best place to get them. They sell some colors individually wrapped if you prefer that. Good for handing out to people. (N95s protect better than KN95s but people are more likely to actually wear earloop masks.)

In my experience, FAR fewer if event organizers don't work with their local mask bloc to ensure masks are available & specifically offered & actively encouraged. Passive encouragement in marketing request only is not enough.

There is a book called The Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America's Shining Women by Kate Moore that is really good. Breaks down the women's experiences at work, the complete lack of care by their employers, and how some took it to court.

The new COVID variant seems to be evading immunity from vaccines and past infections. COVID cases are up 250% in NYC. Remember the more you get covid your risk for long covid increases significantly.

WCCO daytime news had a whole segment about Greece moving to 6 hour work weeks because of dwindling population and inability to find workers, but not once did they mention immigration & the migrants dying in the Ionian Sea off the coast of Greece trying to reach new lives. 🙄

the other thing is that people have no sense of how much space cars and so they imagine that a road full of cars must be a lot of people when it very often is not. a well-used bike lane transports like twice as many people during a given time as does a road

Due to the fireworks, New York City's air quality is the worst in the world tonight.

When AQI is low, it's a good idea to wear a mask to protect your health.

But this could soon be a crime, as one of the mask ban bills prohibits masks at "lawful assemblies."

Timeline cleanser. Just down the street from the rental house is a house with 2 dogs. One is a basset hound. It climbs up the little rock wall there and sits in the top of the playhouse. It takes the slide down. It is adorable.
