Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 12/10/2026It's fairly common in McMansions. Bathrooms and kitchens are full of features that can go in listings, and McMansions are built to be listed and sold. 120
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 12/10/2026That's my concern as well. There's more to trans life than election outcomes and the resulting policies, and one of my main concerns now is that these ads might influence how people make decisions that affect us (e.g. whether to hire us). 000

Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 12/10/2026It might well be illegal. Illinois law is very clear on allowable bumper geometry. That said, laws are only effective to the extent that they are enforced. 130
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 09/10/2026For transit riders: the closest bus stop is at E Palm Ave. and N Central Ave. and is served by Route 5. I'll have to check this place out next time I'm in the area! 000
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Please take care of yourself first and foremost. Your posts here are important to me, but they are not urgent. If you have real-world support (outside of social media), times like right now are what it's for. 000

Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Every journal I've checked doesn't accept papers that list non-human authors for that exact reason. In particular, computing models as authors is a no-go. 060
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 07/10/2026IMO, the term "AI" is itself part of the problem. I usually say "AI" in reference to the business model, propaganda, and bubble, and "LLM" or similar when I discuss the technology. 010
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 05/10/2026TL;DR: the Republicans are getting desperate. However, I'm concerned about effects the ads might have beyond electoral outcomes, e.g. you're interviewing for a job, but the manager's been bombarded with these ads and chooses not to hire you because of imagined potential problems working with you. 26119
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I missed my chance the last time. Maybe someday! 010
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 30/09/2026It's possible there were some other factors at play that I didn't know about, and there are many more ways your situation might differ from mine. But a boss suddenly becoming a micromanager is always a sign of trouble somewhere. 010
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 30/09/2026This happened at my previous job and was ultimately why I left. What I think happened: my boss got in trouble and started micromanaging his team in order to (1) appear useful and essential, (2) prevent anyone from breaking that illusion, and (3) ensure there was someone else to blame for failures. 110
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I think this is because most grocery stores are designed to be liminal spaces, not third places. 000
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I've been using terms like "LLM" and "chatbot" instead of "AI" since these models first became common. That's not going to change. 011

Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Also, to be clear, the Loop and Hyperloop are two different grifts meant to obstruct two different types of rail service. 000
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 23/09/2026If both get built, obviously, rail is the better option. The purpose of Teslas in tunnels is to prevent the rail option from ever being built. The Hyperloop has been a grift since the very beginning. 100
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 21/09/2026The true purpose of Tesla-in-tunnel schemes is to obstruct rail. They draw popular support and funding (in this case mostly private funding, this being Texas) away from building the rail network. 110
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Additionally, the other arches are not being openly used for military purposes. A militarized arch would be a very easy target. 000
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 21/09/2026There are 4 cities in Texas that (in a less anti-rail political climate) would be a strong candidate for connecting with high-speed rail: Austin, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Houston, and San Antonio. Austin and San Antonio is the pair with the shortest distance. 111
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 19/09/2026No Discord -> not affected by a potential outage. 010
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 19/09/2026It's worrying that they aren't. There's a very real danger that some Democratic candidates will win only to leave the anti-trans policies in effect (or even worse, escalate them further). If it happened in the UK, it can happen here. 000
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 18/09/2026That means the city's biking culture has gotten well ahead of the availability of dedicated bike parking. It seems Frankfurt needs to follow the Dutch example and build it. Lots of bikes is great, but lots of well-utilized bike parking is better. 110
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The ads may not be saving Republicans, but there have been more than a few Democrats going anti-trans partly in response. At this point, I think anti-trans politics escaping the partisan divide is the greater threat. 050
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 18/09/2026At this point, I'm more concerned about anti-trans politics spreading across party lines than I am about Republicans possibly remaining in control of Congress. 030
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 18/09/2026That's because the city and county consolidated in 1968. Large tracts of rural land are now within city limits. Nonetheless, JTA transit is a joke for a city of its population, even in a US context. 030
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 18/09/2026There's also the ways LLMs can be (and are being) used maliciously, e.g. regular people might use them to plan hate crimes and create lists of targets. 000
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 18/09/2026We have sample ballots, and we're allowed to mark them and bring them to the polls to transcribe to the official ballots. I usually do this during early voting so that I can be sure that the ballot is counted (i.e. won't be lost/delayed in the mail, which can happen even without malicious actors). 030
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 17/09/2026Exactly. This is about policy, and you can't shoot back at legislation. 040
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Paris is one of several *cities* that has done a great deal to reduce car harm and is a great positive example for others. But when *countries* tackle road violence, the outcome is different; crucially, suburbs and small rural towns get the car harm reduction (and improved quality of life) as well. 1101
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 16/09/2026Norway, Sweden, and the Netherlands have examples of what that might be like. 180
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 16/09/2026This one goes a step further than most and tries to portray car dealerships as economically vital to LA. Claims that driving-related transactions lead to economic growth, gainful employment, lasting wealth, or a solid tax base have been debunked many times. 130

Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Most "flying cars" are just helicopters with many small rotors instead of one or two large ones. This one (when it's in flying mode) is no different. 000
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 08/09/2026The word "motonormativity" first appeared in a research paper (coauthored by @ianwalker.bsky.social) and is definitely appropriate for research papers. There is likely no one universally correct term for laypeople because different people see the problem differently. 010

Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I hope I didn't come across as downplaying/dismissive. Summer heat waves present major danger for millions of people on the Gulf Coast, which is plagued by widespread poverty, poor public health, and lax labor laws. My point is: take this seriously, but don't panic as though no one can survive. 210
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 08/09/2026Those are typical conditions for a Deep South / Gulf Coast hot summer day. With shade and rest, most people will be uncomfortable but healthy. Outdoor work in the sun and/or complicating health conditions means higher risk. 121
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 07/09/2026It's loss aversion at play. If all one knows is driving, any place one can't drive to seems like somewhere one can't go to at all. 040
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 07/09/2026That playground looks way more fun than what one typically finds in a suburban park. How many parents have kids who incessantly beg them to spend the whole afternoon there? 000
Two-wheel woman @fembikesnsci.bsky.social · 07/09/2026That's one reason that "run" may not be a viable response to being threatened by fascism. If not defeated, fascism will spread everywhere, and there will be nowhere left to go. 000
