Brooklyn’s Democratic Party could be in for a major shakeup following last month’s primary election, when reform-oriented candidates flipped eight of nine contested district leader races. The groups who backed those candidates — New Kings Democrats and Brooklyn Can’t Wait — say they now have enough votes to oust party chair Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn and take over the county machine they have long railed against.

GTG PDCST 044 | Petter B
Petter B is a Swedish DJ and producer based in Gothenburg and started out behind the decks back in 1996. Being brought up in the era when Swedish techno had its own sound and prolifc artists such as Cari Lekebusch, Adam Beyer and Joel Mull, to name a few, really put a face to that sound, it became a big source of inspiration to him.

No investments in high-risk pipelines and LNG projects.
The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) manages the retirement savings of nearly every working and retired Canadian outside Quebec. As climate impacts intensify and the global economy shifts toward clean energy, investing in new fossil fuel infrastructure like pipelines and LNG terminals puts Canadians’ pensions and retirement security at unnecessary risk. Our pension manager must say “NO” to investing in these projects.

Good afternoon #BikeNYC #BikeTooter. Gorgeous day out there, make sure you've got your official #NYC garbage bin before the June 1st deadline!

A blue midtail cargo bike (a Yuba Kombi with a battery and custom (Bafang BBS02) motor. Attached to the rear is a 45gal black garbage bin. Behind the bike, there's the world's shittiest bike rack, and the generic stone wall and windows of a big box hardware store.
An overhead shot of me over the bike. White-ish guy with a blue shirt, white helmet, glasses, and stubble. Behind me is the rear rack of the bike (and a pannier), dwarfed by the big garbage bin.
Another side view of the cargo bike, from the opposite side. A black pannier is attached to the rear rack, which has a ring (for kids to hold onto ) and a little black pad (for kid butts). A bungee is hooked between the metal bar of the garbage bin and the bottom of the bike, and another cord goes around the outside of the bin. The bin reads "trash". Bhine the bike, a red brick wall and foliage.
Front/side view of the bike, which is parked w/ the kickstand up. There's a black battery nestled between the down front tubes, a flat squat pannier (containing the garbage bin wheels and misc other stuff), and the bin on this side reads "New York City Dept Of Sanitation"

Added Power Grips (pedal straps) to my wife's #Brompton. Not going to say it's my nicest work, but I'm hopeful that it'll hold. I only drilled holes through the plastic reflectors; the metal is all intact. I can change that later if needed. #BikeTooter

The right side pedal. The red Brompton is folded up (doesn't even really look like a bike), but the right crank has a normal-looking pedal with a black strap on it. The metal hardware attachment has screws going through the orange plastic reflector of the pedal. The bike's on a white rug w/ black line pattern.
The opposite side of that same right pedal. You have a better view of the opposite side of the orange reflector, with nuts and washers attached to the bolts that go through it. The red folding bike it's attached to is just a jumble of stem, wheel, drivetrain, etc.
The left-side pedal (and behind it, the brompton logo on the red frame). The pedal is folded up so that it is parallel to the crank arm. The orange reflector is missing from the exposed side of the pedal. Of the two screws that held the reflector in, one is missing (just an empty screw hole), and the other is screwed into the end of the black Power Grip strap.
The other side of the left pedal. This time the pedal is unfolded (so it's perpendicular to the crank arm), and the plastic grey reflector mount is installed but only one side is screwed in. The orange reflector is actually missing, and underneath you can see the silver Power Grips attachment hardware. Though normally you'd have two screws holding the attachment hardware in, there's only one screw there; the grey reflector mount is on top of it, pinching it down to hold it in place. Essentially…

8 years ago my (now 14yo) added me into the running for Father Of The Year with this document. #parenting

A kids paper labeled "my dad" at the top. In a child's scrawled handwriting, it says " the important thing about my dad is he lets me watch shows." It also mentions something barely legible about groups hugs and his sister, but then it reiterates about watching shows.

#QueensZoo needs to ditch these awful bike racks and install staple racks. This same amount of space could fit at least a dozen bikes, but the "wheel bender" rack is just space inefficient.
#NYCParksDepartment

A wooded area next to a fence (next to the Queens Zoo entrance). A long wheel-bender bike rack, maybe 12ft long, with cobblestone underneath. Two cargo bikes (mid-tail or longtail) are parked on either end of the rack, basically the only usable spots on the rack. Kid seats are installed on the rear of both bikes.
Same rack with the two cargo bikes locked, but now there's a *third* cargo bike (my blue Yuba Kombi) attached to it. My bike is locked in the middle, and I have a smaller kids' bike attached to my bike, so I'm literally taking up THE ENTIRE SIDE of the bike rack. The smaller bike is attached to my rear rack by its front wheel, with the rear wheel of the kids' bike on the ground.

A rear (bicycle) drop-out, with a hand next to it. In the hand, a washer and a very rusty bolt that has a clean silver shear where it has broken in half. In the bike frame, there's a clean bolt (attached to a rack strut) and a bump next to it (with a lot of dirt) that is the other half of the broken bolt.
