One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez V @AOC X.com We have a responsibility to protect Americans from tyranny. DHS just shot a man in broad daylight two weeks after they shot a mother in the face without consequence. They need our votes to continue. We cannot give it to them. Every Senator should vote NO. Sahil Kapur & @sahilkapur •1h Reminder: DHS legislation that funds ICE at current levels without policy restrictions is in the Senate and needs 60 votes to pass.

Cordially, please stop trying to fuck up the progress made on public transport services in NI.

@eointennyson.bsky.social is an ignoramus, and @allianceparty.bsky.social cannot be trusted to protect the rights of trans people.

Yeah that's pretty much the size of it. Knowing DfI, they'll also half ass it like they did with the G1 Glider route and it won't live up to what a BRT should be, while simultaneously being overwhelmed by passenger numbers because the demand is actually there for a massive transit system
Sinn Féin are utterly useless when it comes to public transport. John O'Dowd is a waste of space as minister for infrastructure, and between himself and DfI it's clear that no one in the Department understands how public transport works.

Have you seen the average Canadian citizen? They're gearing up to vote for Canada's Trump, you would not want to give them absolute power over the US presidency...
You don't get to claim you support the trans community while you're actively associated with a political party that has participated in the removal of trans healthcare options for people you represent.
@allianceparty.bsky.social and @Sinn Féin in particular must not be allowed to pinkwash their abject failure to protect healthcare access for trans kids, clearly showing up their two-faced "support" for LGBTQIA+ rights.
TRANS SOLIDARITY FOREVER 🏳️⚧️
The Young Greens stand in solidarity with ALL Pride organisations who make the decision to ban the political parties in the Executive responsible for destroying the rights of trans kids.

🚨PRIDE IS A PROTEST!🚨
The time of certain political parties actively participating in the removal of trans peoples' rights while turning up for photo ops at Pride is over.
A screenshot of an Instagram post from "Care not Killing", an anti-assisted dying group, asking people to email Claire Hanna MP to ask why she abstained from the assisted dying vote.
Anyone else seeing these abhorrent scumbags trying to force people to live and die in pain and without dignity advertising everywhere while trying to reframe the issue as one about care?
@carenotkilling.bsky.social should be ashamed of themselves for using human lives as pawns for their campaign.
Wrong Translink, right message.
Properly implemented and enforced bus lanes make things better for us all.

We need more of this kind of thing in Belfast.
We need more bus lanes NOW. These kinds of delays are unacceptable, and they need to be addressed by @deptinfra to make the Metro bus network run efficiently.

It's not about having enough urban space for all modes, it's about allocating the available space to the "traffic" you want to enable.
I haven't posted it on here yet, I've been too busy 😅 I'm planning to post it today as one long thread and I'll make sure to tag you!
Hey, remember when car and oil companies successfully lobbied governments to create car dependent cities and suburbs, and once we became almost completely car dependent, WE became the loudest, angriest champions of unhindered road space for cars, unnaturally cheap gas, and subsidized free parking?
I think I get less abuse than I used to but it is significant. The fundamental problem is that the chronic lack of bike infrastructure puts cyclists and cars in conflict. @belfastcyclecam.bsky.social
This account has now gained ~500 followers in the course of a week or two... this seems like a bad omen for Elon and Twitter lol
Funniest possible outcome
Hi everyone.
The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars.
We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website.
We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off.
I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

For my first real post on this new frontier, I am going to repost my Belfast Tramway plan I created back in 2023...
My only question - should it be posted line by line, or one giant megathread?
This is the last thing I was waiting for before jumping ship from the hellsite
I need to start remembering to use this over the Elon hellsite...
They have the potential to offer a genuine alternative to FF/FG hegemony but by fuck they should be handled like a suspect device and if they twist even an inch people should cast them back to oblivion for being perpetual grifters
