I'm not an urban planner but these are the people-friendly amenities that I enjoyed while in Montreal this summer 🧵(inspiration for #seabikes)

@DannyDutch Judging by how many of the engineers were let go in the last few days, and even more left voluntarily yesterday, I’d give it a 50/50 chance at this point.

[Gus S @seattlegus]

@DannyDutch I followed you and will wait patiently until you decide to use it :) hopefully some version of what made me enjoy your posts here

@zorbadgreek I’ve seen a few, as well as a coyote

Looking for the rest of my bike friends on mastodon. There’s a good contingent already.

Where on Mastodon did #seabike migrate to?

Bike folks contemplating the journey to a place called Mastodon.

"The right to access every building in a city by private motorcar in an age when everyone possesses such a vehicle is actually the right to destroy the city."

@RichKnox7 @Spottnik +1 for keeping an eye on fedex. Some of their drivers are straight up bullies.

@DannyDutch Good story, it’s sending me down a rabbit hole on the history of Zaire.

You did repeat the same paragraph twice by the way “ For the first few rounds, Ali …”

Scientists at Stanford University have reconstructed this 3D model of how Joseph, the husband of Mary the Mother of Jesus Christ might have looked.

Booties. I forgot booties. 🌧️

Tis the season … for adapting to the new/old weather conditions for the commute. Shorts? How many layers? Which gloves? Too warm? too cold? will it rain?

[Gus S @seattlegus]

Looking for tips on managing the rust on the Yakima fullswing hitch bike rack… this is worse than I anticipated. Did I mount it wrong?

[Gus S @seattlegus]

@vaticdart @StumpToEmerald it was a bad bad idea. And I had to climb up Madison St from 3rd Ave to the top for once. Even with a mask I'm still feeling it in my nose/throat.

@RichKnox7 @thename @seattledot Isn't an rrfb more responsive for peds/bikes? It's on demand rather than having to wait for a light cycle.

[Gus S @seattlegus]

@derg_corv @Danielhep Were you there?

[Gus S @seattlegus]

@Danielhep IMHO not shouting but rather clear articulations of what the community expected to hear updates about: how to address the rising safety concerns. People started getting angry when we got the brush off and evasions blaming bureaucratic processes.

[Gus S @seattlegus]

Dont want my fam or neighbors to be a stat on some crime spreadsheet. The Greenwood shooting happened after gradual increase in threats: Verbal then w/ bear mace then gun waving from the camp dwellers. We demand enabling the enforcement of laws (no tents on sidewalks) NOW!

[Gus S @seattlegus]

Very underwhelmed by the response of @CMDanStrauss at the #Greenwood townhall. We are all compassionate, but in addition to housing solutions we need to weed out the criminals. Safety concerns were brushed off with statements about budgets and strategies and working groups.

[Gus S @seattlegus]

We need tactical solutions right now, so that 99.9% percent of this Seattle neighborhood feels safe, even if that inconveniences 0.1% of the residents (the tent dwellers). We are fed up with the lax policies towards crime.
