Minnesota lawmaker Katie Jones rode in a cargo e-bike to the hospital for her baby's birth. Her husband, Peter Schmitt, pedaled the two miles there.
On the return journey, their son Hans – all 8 pounds and 1 ounce of him – was bundled up and handled it just fine, Jones said.
Happy? I think he wants revenge for the cone of shame, just hasn't figured out how. 😁
The cabinet meeting yesterday to discuss measures to address the traffic chaos in Ireland would have benefited from following points made by @sadhbhoneill.bsky.social in this piece

We should be getting to the point where we can figure out some sort of "for every % point increase in rent, x number of people become homeless". As a result we could establish the cost to the state via emergency housing costs and how much money is indirectly subsidising landlords.
Where is the public outrage?
Double standards don't come more obvious than that.
Hungary is a big problem for the EU. How can this be fixed?
The effects of trickle-down economics will kick in any time now.
Hit-and-runs have become very common in Ireland. Drivers who do that are cowards. Own your shit or just give up driving.

The promoters of this "board of peace" will end up in The Hague, right? Surely they won't get away with this madness. The world hasn't gone this insane, I'm sure it hasn't.
I see what you did there, and i like it.
I wasn't expecting that. It hits hard.
This is, by far, the best business book I ever read. I just bought it probably for the 30th time. All previous copies I gave them to someone who needed to read it. This one I'm keeping.
The only distinct thing about the 90s is that it wasn't like the 80s
They should just rebrand to cow juice

I used to enjoy the joke about Idiocracy being a documentary of the future. It's not so funny anymore.

The previous government cared, but voters showed different priorities at the last elections and the current government is reflecting that. We're getting what "we asked" for. It sucks.
Well,
Common sense is not always widely available in the public discourse, but when it comes we should appreciate it.
They're playing chicken with the government and the government seems to be losing. This isn't just about a committee, but about who runs the show.
Here's an idea for the RSA: instead of begging drivers to observe the law, why not beg the AGS to enforce it - last I checked, they're paid to do it already, so not sure what other incentives might be needed...
I couldn't agree more. While they ignore the proper solutions, they come up with policies that will do nothing to address road violence.
Crisis in India. An estimated 80k people killed by snakes every year. www.bbc.com/news/article...
Motor traffic kills twice as many though.
