Quite sad about this. Like many children her age, my daughter learned to ride on a second hand isla bike. Durable, fixable, rideable and comfortable, they were just what she needed to get used to riding. It is good the quality of the average children's bike is higher than 15 years ago, but there's still a lot of crap out there.

It is absurd to me that you have to re-register to vote in every municipal election.
Anyway, #Somerville #Cambridge #Boston be sure to check your voter registration and re-register because I think today is the last day to do that for the upcoming elections. #SomerPoli #BosPoli
Biggest Peabody ES #BikeBus yet, maybe? Kids as far back as the iPhone can see.

It's really amazing having been reading #LongCovid forum posts for a few years now. The same stories over & over again. Loss of jobs, partners & family abandoning them, shaming them for being sick. Many consider suicide. Profound clinical symptoms & little/no help from doctors, + medical gaslighting

This is the third major work stoppage in this project, which I’m told took several years of design and permitting.
It’s almost like people and policymakers don’t actually want to provide people with affordable places to live near them in a city.
Trees > people: Construction of a new backyard townhouse on my street has been stopped because the third floor conflicts with a private tree
Got the stiffest non-racing boots that they had, because I want to punish my joints for their sins.
I am excited to announce that I have finally bought new ski boots, so a ligament tear is definitely in my immediate future.
Resolved: Kansas City has the only acceptable transit wrap
