Favorite comments (from well meaning cycle club members): "you are just supposed to use the lane like you are a car" (or something to that effect)
My replies: "You are probably going 45. I am going 10 or 15 miles an hour, maybe slower uphill! You think a 10 year old bicycling to school could use a sharrow?"
(Yes, I was probably being a PITA).
I do feel like I am not enough of a cyclist to qualify for the "bicycle advisory group" we currently have if they took applications for "bcicyling experience", ha ha, everywhere there apparently has decades of road racing experience, LOL. (with the exception of @technotion, who I appreciate as a fellow "use cycling to get around" person)
Mostly feels like: retired, have been cycling all of their life, probably competitive cyclist of one form or another, at the amateur level at least... part of an organized club. I'm sure good folks if I got to know them better... (a few folks here! Hi guys!) But I think the considerations for road bicycling with a club (and experience level of "real" cyclists) can be dramatically different than "would like to see more people bicycling to the store/work/school". There is a segment that are cyclists who also are urban planners/transportation background professionally (who do seem to understand the "not an old road cyclist in a club" issues a LOT BETTER). And surprisingly, almost no MTB representation, except the folks from the bike team there (hi all!)... maybe they just don't have a lot to say about roads....

Completely agreed.
I like having contact with other people, but I prefer to keep a certain distance even with friends. And friends in particular like to overstep certain boundaries, which can be very stressful.
In my life, I've often put my heart and soul into relationships with other people, be it relatives, friends or men in a partnership. Everything together was certainly beautiful, but the bottom line was that it was too often hurtful. I won't do it like that anymore.

The US has adopted Israel's cruel plan for food aid for Gaza, which would (1) require the whole population to go to four places in the south of Gaza and (2) pass face recognition gates while armed guards point guns at them. Many people in Gaza are so weak from hunger that they can't possibly walk such a distance. They would be killed. Meanwhile, Israel has persistently refused to prosecute gratuitous killing of

77 years of nakba: share this video and its 7 demands
Today, we mark the 77th anniversary of the Nakba — the planned mass ethnic cleansing of Indigenous Palestinians and destruction of hundreds of Palestinian towns and villages to establish Israel as a settler-colony based on Zionism, Jewish supremacy, and apartheid.But that colonial project has never stopped. The Nakba isn’t history. It’s now.
Today, Palestinians are facing what Israeli leaders openly call the “Gaza Nakba” — an unprecedented genocide of extermination and forced displacement against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza.
Only mass, intersectional people power can end this.
So, on the 77th anniversary of the Nakba, watch our video and share 7 urgent demands from Palestinians for meaningful solidarity.

From campuses to city councils, from the streets to the largest trade unions, a global wave of solidarity is rising. Millions of justice activists, artists, workers, students, farmers, and human rights defenders are standing up for Palestinian liberation worldwide. The Palestinian-led BDS movement is reshaping how the world relates to Israel: not as a normal state, but as a regime of genocide and apartheid that must be dismantled to achieve freedom, justice and equality.

The image depicts a dramatic scene of a large rocket launching from a barren, rocky landscape. The rocket, with a pointed nose cone and a cylindrical body, is emitting a bright orange flame and thick plumes of smoke as it ascends into the dark sky. The ground is covered with scattered rocks and debris, suggesting a desolate environment, possibly a moon or a planet. In the background, several other rockets are visible, some of which are also launching, creating a sense of a coordinated launch event. The sky is a deep black, dotted with stars, emphasizing the vastness of space. The overall color palette is dominated by oranges, yellows, and blacks, creating a striking contrast. The scene is dynamic, with the motion of the rocket and the smoke adding to the intensity of the moment.
