It appears the folks with savecarsharemn.org/officials have created a rally to support Evie Community Carshare This Tuesday @ 6pm. Not clear on details, but in case folks are interested.
Green and white graphic with rally details, cartoon style with a green car shape in bottom right corner. 

Graphic text:
“Thousands of us get to work, the grocery store, and the doctor in an HOURCAR or Evie. If it disappears, we feel it first. 
RALLY: Save Evie Carshare. 
Time: 6pm on Tuesday, Oct 13th
Location: Government Plaza, Downtown Minneapolis, 55415
Come in an Evie if you can!”

It's so weird! I'm originally from Milwaukee, which seems like it couldn't be that different, but it took me a while to stop taking offense when I would wave a finger or say hello and get absolute fish eyes in response.

Kinda long shot, but if anyone in Uptown happens to find a longer wristlet strung with fluorite and amethyst stones (green/blue/purple) between Cub and the Greenway overlook path by apartments to Little Caesar’s can you lmk? My phone wristlet unclipped and backtracking didn’t find it.

It can be fun to go against the grain, to be sure, but I could get plenty of that through inconsequential preferences like clothing, etc. I don't want to feel cool and special for, e.g., biking everywhere, I just don't think driving when anything else is feasible is the best moral choice.

I mean, I guess I'm talking about myself. I live differently than most people in several major, personally disruptive ways, but it's not like I enjoying going against the grain constantly. It's exhausting. I would love if some of the biggest ways I'm different were the norm instead.

Unless you mean people who call themselves nonconformists, I don't think that's a contradiction necessarily. A lot of people have a strong belief that societal norms are wrong and feel compelled to try to live in line with that belief despite the cost. Nonconformity isn't the motivation at all.

I regularly think about a young coworker at an old job who, upon learning I biked to work, said "Yeah, I could walk, but I live so close that it's literally like a one minute drive up the street, so it's not really that bad for the environment anyway."

It’s a premonition. It’s 2030. I35 has been demolished. There are free city bike docks on every corner. MCBL training is mandatory for all residents. Only a matter of time until Bike God Mayor Laura Mitchell decrees Lake Street closed to car traffic. So say we all.

@minneapolismn.gov gets tons of praise as a bike friendly city, but they can't be bothered to keep the shiny new lanes usable. Hennepin Ave downtown has multiple construction zones with no safe detours for bikes, and as a bonus the road work signs for drivers are in the middle of the bike lane, too.

In exciting Midwest passenger rail news, starting today Amtrak's Borealis now runs with 4 Superliner coaches instead of 3, adding 75 more seats. Dash 8-32BWH #518 is on the rear of the first 4 car run, passing Imniza Ska slightly behind schedule.
A passenger train lit by the sunset. At the head is GE P42DC #54, behind it are 4 silver bilevel passenger cars, each with a red, white, and blue stripe. At the rear is a strange angular locomotive, a GE Dash 8-32BHW. Behind the train a steep wooded hillside rises, and above it are patchy clouds lit by last light.

This is what really grinds my gears about @mndot.mn.gov refusal to consider options to remove I-94. People will use the mode of transport that’s most useful. Bury a fast, frequent train in old freeway trench and people will use it. Just look as how popular the Borealis has been!

Wow, @startribune.com. This is absolutely irresponsible and needs an immediate retraction. Refuting your own headline right in the story.
Police: Shooting at Eden Prairie homecoming game was gang-related
Police did not specifically say that Somali gangs were involved, but Rep. Tom Emmer and others posted on social media calling the incident a “Somali gang crime.” This summer, Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher issued a public warning of what he described as a surge of violence involving Somali gangs.

But that can be a bit pricey. In terms of rechargeables, I have some Cygolites (Dash in front and Hotshot in back, I think) that have been reliable for several years. Battery life for the back is excellent, and front is good as long as it's on one of the lower settings.

If you only have one bike you're trying to light and it's worth making a bit of an investment, there is nothing as convenient as a hub dynamo setup. Never having to think about charging or stuffing them in a pocket at your destination really makes it feel like a proper vehicle.

When you connect a Waymo ride with a bus route, Waymo will pay your bus fare. Which is useful for two reasons: it helps them curry favor with city governments that might otherwise be wary of self-driving rideshares, and it gives them data about where to provide more cars to replace buses later.

what i thought we had distanced ourselves from was the reduction of women to vaginas and wombs and the ability to bear children. i thought we had progressed past 'dresses are for women and pants are for men. i thought we progressed past the idea that someone is less of a woman if she does not adhere strictly to beauty standards. i thought we progressed past the idea that naturally being comfortable adhering to highly feminine standards is vulgar. but i (sarcastically) guess no one could have predicted that trans-exclusive feminism would be the downfall of all the progress we've made
