What would it take to get public libraries to open at 9am rather than 10? This would be really helpful when your kids are up at 5am. @cityofedmonton.bsky.social

Today I paid tribute to someone who was a friend & inspiration to many of us, Darren Markland. One of the best humans I’ve ever known. In the shadow of the challenges our world faces today, we need more people like Darren. Perhaps the best tribute we can pay is to be more like him. #abpoli

With the average new car at $50,000, let's look at the real costs of "freedom": ​✅ Decades of debt ✅ Social isolation for every trip ✅ A leading cause of death & injury ​Car dependency is a financially and socially crippling system, not a choice.

It's me, Serena in YEG @itsmeserenat.bsky.social · 10/10/2025
I recently rode back home from University, and flying past gridlocked cars on 114st made my heart feel lifted again. Driving to and from work so regularly was crushing my soul, and I had to force myself to repeat mantras to find the motivation to get through the day.
Photo of a red bike. It is an up close photo from behind, seeing through the bars of the bike frame. There are 3 stickers on the bike frame, in particular one small one of a person sitting on a bench.Digital drawing of a man sitting on a bench, his bike resting against the back side of the bench. The scene is of the back of the bench, and the man has his back to us. He is holding a hot beverage.

A few months ago, a friend visited me in Utrecht. As we biked around to do daily errands, she kept saying, "This is like a dream. This is like a dream." I do believe all cities the world over to soon come to their senses, limit car movement, and build a dream of safe, abundant streets for people.

I spent and hour on the Tawatinâ Bridge today reading, resting and reflecting. It would have been so much nicer if I could have heard the sounds of the leaves in the wind and the birds in the sky. It was entirely drowned out by car noise. We sacrifice so much. It's such a shame. #nosiepollition #yeg

This road is about 21 metres wide. 17% of it is for pedestrians, 17% for cyclists, and 66% for cars. No particular argument to make right now. I just think people should do calculations like this more often for roads in their city. (Google Maps, right click, “measure distance”.)

A 2019 throwback of @coffeeoutside.bsky.social. Back when it was Twitter, back before the kiddos, back when I had 'more time'. My greatest ignorance perhaps, thinking I had more time. Make the time for #community. Do something nice today. #yegbike

A dad, a toddler, their luggage, and two violins (full size and 1/10th size) on an ebike.
A white man with red hair and black glasses stands astride a black RadCity ebike on a sunny day, on a sidewalk in a residential area. He is wearing a teal helmet, a green T-shirt, and jeans. He is wearing a near-white backpack backwards, on his chest. On the back of the bike there is a blue Yepp Maxi child seat with a toddler in it. The toddler is wearing a red helmet, teal shirt, and navy pants. A black violin case for a full-size violin is strapped onto the front rack with a bungee net. A much smaller violin case for a much smaller violin is strapped to the back of the child seat.

I’m so lucky to get to live this life & raise my kids this way. Bikes make us so happy & relaxed (esp when we get to ride safely away from drivers).
Laura’s kids are riding in the front of a Bunch bike with a rainbow sun cover. They’re on the midtown greenway (bike/ped path).
