I know everything is fucking terrible right now but this buttery mushroom Dutch baby I just made helped at least a little…

@tomflood.bsky.social My Physics warm up slides today. The last one is for those students that wanna argue with me about who should or shouldn’t be in the street.

Very true. I was at the St Louis aquarium the other day checking out an exhibit on coral reefs. They expressed that the reefs were in danger from climate change but the suggestions for individual action were just… frustrating. Care about coral reefs? STOP voting republican. Period.

Another day, another closed sidewalk with zero detours or thought whatsoever to what anyone outside a car might do here. I was told we should jump the sidewalk, ride the wrong way in the vehicle lane, and jump back up the sidewalk once we passed the closure. What if I was in a wheel chair?

Riding your bike to the grocery store… For those times when you really should go to the gym, you definitely need therapy, but you don’t really have time for either because you have too many errands to run.

Zach Deegan @deegs23.bsky.social · 28/09/2025

Morning ride to the grocery store.

Zach Deegan @deegs23.bsky.social · 27/09/2025

Running errands is just a fun experience when you leave the car at home. Who needs therapy when you start the day like this?

In addition to being an advocate for better bike infrastructure, I’m also a teacher. I have a design lab class with some Glowforge laser engraving machines. I recently remanded all the machines to LoTR themes. Just made a new sticker label for the first one. I’ll be giggling about it all day.

If you asked me if I thought these people were doing a bang up job fighting the fascists I would have said “hell no, I have no idea what they are thinking!” That doesn’t mean I am going to support the fascists moving forward…

This kind of thing plus a handful of frozen veggies and a bit of hot sauce or chili crisp makes a tasty and ridiculously easy meal.

Zach Deegan @deegs23.bsky.social · 25/06/2025

Believe it or not, it isn’t the scope of the job that pushes people to choose the car for their daily errands. What makes people shy away from bikes is the inhospitable environment they face when NOT in a car. @americanfietser.bsky.social

My son and I rode our bikes down to the local pizza joint for dinner while the girls are in New York. Ebikes make evening more fun. Our little town (Castle Rock) is growing fast and lots of the old timers are very concerned about parking. We always get the best spots!

Tom, as a recent exchange on FB told me, 15 min cities are just a way for the government to control us!

Huh… apparently building a mixed use development in the central part of town on the site of an old brick factory actually encourages habitat destruction because it will, checks notes, bring more people to the area and encourage them to move out into sprawling developments… @jeffspeck.bsky.social

Zach Deegan @deegs23.bsky.social · 11/06/2025

Living in the burbs is not the best choice when it comes to an eco-friendly lifestyle, but if you are there, one thing you can do it ditch the grass and create habitat for all the birds, bees, and bugs in your neighborhood

Zach Deegan @deegs23.bsky.social · 30/05/2025

Hadn’t really heard of this… but focusing on the mastery of standards over checking boxes is a good thing.

lol… lawn ornament. Though this winter I had 4 massive bucks roughly the same size roaming around the neighborhood on the regular.

What about using bikes to teach physics? (after using the same bike to get to work)

Zach Deegan @deegs23.bsky.social · 08/04/2025

When you are a cargo bike enthusiast but you also teach physics

“New” bike day! Thanks to @bikeshopgirl.bsky.social for all the expert advice as I scoured the used market for the last 2 months. Super pumped to put a few thousand miles on this guy by summers end.

We don't "believe the science" because some authority like Newton tells us its true. We accept the science because it works. We can confirm it ourselves. These kids got one shot at this. Needless to say they were pretty excited the mathematical model they created worked.

@jeffspeck.bsky.social @brenttoderian.bsky.social Hey urban development gurus! Curious about expert thoughts on this massive 500-acre development in my neck of the woods. I'm going to the town meeting tonight and am not sure what to think. www.crgov.com/1912/Pine-Ca...

Little train station in Hinsdale, Il. I grew up 3 stops over. From the age of 10-15 we would take the train from our home station to a handful of other close by “downtowns”. This one had a great little diner we thought was cool. Others a movie theater or card shop. Had no idea how good we had it!

Here is the Christmas gift. A little weird lol but the three animals are our skinny mischievous cat, our lazy fat cat, and the little dog that gets waaaay to many table scraps

For the past 1-2 yearsI’ve taught a “design lab” class at school. We have a laser cutter/engraver, 3D printers etc. I’ve had to teach myself Adobe Illustrator and other skills but I’m improving! Made my wife this gift back in November. Our house is very mid-century so tried to emulate that style.

Zach Deegan @deegs23.bsky.social · 27/11/2024

The difference between these two “bike lanes” is staggering. These are both in Castle Rock, CO. They are maybe 2 miles apart from each other. Both on streets with a 30 ish mph speed limit. One of these I’ll use the bike lane. The other… no f-ing way! I’ll take the lane thank you.

Ouray, CO is a damn dream.

I was shocked when I came across this in my town a few weeks ago. Was such a pleasant surprise to see the sidewalk detour built out of a car lane.

Recently scored this vintage gem and it’s just magic.
