@nicycle I am chronically confused by people who make signs informing you what they don't want you to do rather than just, you know, altering the built environment so the thing they don't want doesn't happen.

Once a tourist in downtown asked me where they could get a phone charger because the target was closed. "I mean, what kind of Target closes at 6?" they asked. I have never lived down the shame.

To everyone complaining about the lines at the convention center I want to remind you that it doesn't have to be like this. We could have testing sites at every Walgreens, at every Holiday. Healthcare is a human right and our response to COVID-19 is a policy failure.

Riding by myself I’m always at least a little afraid. Of being hit by a driver who leaves me to die. Of being harassed or assaulted. While we’re all going solo, think about how abundantly more shitty it is to be a rider who’s black or trans or female out on the roads alone.
