Let me tell you a tale of how completely the normies have been mobilized. My 14 year-old niece has done School of Rock for the past 5 years; last summer she was part of their touring band, and the kids loved playing together so much that they decided to keep doing it. (1/?)

For those now considering more of a bike or ebike-centered transportation mode due to gas prices, this is a great video. Similar to my experiences in Seattle. #ClimateInfluence #JoyAsAnActOfResistance #lesscar
Too many people don't believe that a bike makes you immune to traffic. Here's how it works

*This* is the view I am holding, too.

A new world is being born. Absolutely. We can do this! #JoyAsAnActOfResistance

This framing is good for culture shift overall, Jan : no Hormuz, no problem (solar); expensive meat and dairy, no problem (veer plantbased); expensive gas, no problem (consider bike, walk or transit for
local transportation). #ClimateInfluence #JoyAsAnActOfResistance

Something about the #Portland approach is really triggering joy for me. This is #democracy #HopePunk

I look forward to more frog and critter costumes in cities across the country on the 18th. #JoyAsAnActOfResistance

THIS is #Cities4Climate #ClimateInfluence

Help a lot more people choose to ride a bike for local #transportation. Completely aligns with #SDG11, by the way.

Also: Bike and #ebikes are #JoyAsAnActOfResistance

“'The opposite of grimdark is hopepunk. Pass it on.' They later elaborated that hopepunk weaponized compassion, embraced cooperation, and chose radical kindness as a rejection of a world bent on brutality."

THIS is what I see in this lovely new wave of joyful, community-engaged, power-to-the-people mayors...

“Make ordinary great again” says psychologist Jennifer Freed on a recent episode of the Pulling the Thread podcast. Yes. Indeed. #Biking your local #transportation more counters the SUV takeover of residential streets, as example. #LessCar , more go. #ClimateInfluence
