Oh, I know! Why don't we just get rid of executions and step into the 21st century?

Love that the students in Denver were chanting, “I don’t see a riot here. Why are you in riot gear?”

Denver doesn't have a great history with crowd control (or riot gear), as a great band from Denver once sang:

(This was released in 1998, so this kind of thing isn't getting better. Instead, it's getting worse.)

Look at all those bikes! This is so cool 🤯 need this for some of the hills around here (BC)

I bike commute but I hear all the time that people feel reluctant to do so because of one or two bad sections of the trip.

We too often forget humanity's charge to take care of the world around us. We're too busy finding ways to forestall the "incursion" into "human spaces" instead of better figuring out the best ways for us humans to live more harmoniously with nature. Let's work on that.

“When drivers fail to yield for pedestrians, it’s not because they can’t see them, it’s because they don’t care.” Kudos to @VisionZeroYVR for this brilliant intervention. https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/bricks-vancouver-crosswalk-pedestrian-safety

“It’s clear this is not about safety,” said Jessica Brand, who founded the Wren Collective, a progressive consulting firm, and works with several reform prosecutors. “It’s about power — they don’t want prosecutors in office who will hold them accountable when they abuse their power. That’s the theme that is running through the backlash in every state.”

Ok, in the interest of exploring/investing in federation, I have created a pixelfed for my art. I think you can find it: https://pixelfed.art/@jam

So if that interests you, you can now add... this pixelfed... to your mastodon feed? If I'm understanding it correctly. Or your pixelfed feed I suppose. Thank you for welcoming me pixelfed.art 💜

If you're interested in a lemmy group, I can recommend Beehaw! They're going to leave lemmy soon (lack of moderation tools) but are sticking w/ActivityPub (not kbin/mbin, though), so wherever they move will still integrate into the ecosystem.

There's also a solarpunk group, but I don't know much about that one.

Four years ago today, I went against what my boss's boss told my dept (that we librarians at a university were suddenly "essential workers" in the case of a pandemic) after two days of still going to work while all other depts stayed home. For the first time, I stayed home. I haven't gone back.

@devononabike
Yeeep. I was so angry at that ridiculousness.

M was pregnant & has a chronic disease that causes issues w/ COVID, but her doctor was like, "No, you don't need to stay home. Nothing shows this is a danger to you." I was like, "WE DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS!" She decided to stay home from the first day anyway, for which I'm glad.
