Americans drive a lot more than people in other rich countries.
If we didn’t drive so much, we wouldn’t die in so many crashes.
It’s a simple point, but one that NHTSA, traffic engineers, and many road safety org’s have yet to learn.

Yet another tragedy to remind us that our roads MUST be made safer for pedestrians and bicyclists. The deaths of Andreia & Gerry Goldberg were preventable. Their memories live on as a blessing and a call to a public health mindset on this issue. www.denverpost.com/2026/03/04/b...
This is horrible but @dieworkwear.bsky.social can we get some thoughts on this suit fit and collar?
Was great to see @chelaforcolorado.bsky.social at Caucasus tonight. Running for State Senate District 34.
In January, we went inside the Dilley detention center. Children shared letters describing the anguish of being ripped from their lives: propub.li/4cUHm8L
After publishing that story, we learned about Edison, a 13-year-old from Chicago detained for 2+ months. Listen to Edison in his own words 👇
The two things most likely to kill children are being shot or being killed in crash. What would you do to mitigate those two for public health?
Me: ok, I need to pick the hair color for my Duolingo avatar to look like mine. I’ll do brown.
7 year old daughter: Actually Dad you should pick gray. It’s closer to that.
Life comes at you fast.
There is always a tweet
I guess he didn’t get the memo about them blowing up the elementary school
This is the second time in my lifetime our country has gone to war in the Middle East over the guise of an imminent threat of weapons of mass destruction in my lifetime.
The last time we did this in Iraq ~150,000 - 200,000 civilians died in the conflict.
War is a horrible thing.
The welcome sign at DIA was billed as a technologically groundbreaking LED display with almost 1,000 brightly colored rods — a piece of art befitting one of the busiest airports in the world.
Instead, a decade after it was first proposed, the sign has been nothing but problems for the airport.
A great analysis by @nosquish.bsky.social on how Mayor Johnston was gaslighting on @citycastdenver.bsky.social today

Gun violence takes nearly 130 lives and wounds over 200 more every day. But instead of strengthening our nation’s gun laws, Trump has done everything in his power to dismantle them, putting even more lives at risk.
Ahead of tonight’s #SOTU, learn more about Trump’s abysmal record on gun violence:
Only 8% of NHL players are registered Democrats. This is not a surprise.
The Trump administration wants national parks and historic sites to tell a positive story about America. These small-town high school students are helping protect the memory of Japanese American incarceration.

2025 was a record year for crashes in Denver. 93 people were killed. 48 of them were walking, biking, on scooters, or in wheelchairs when they were killed.

To quote Al Pacino…
“The Wall Street Journal, here: not exactly a bastion of anti-capitalist sentiment”
It was exciting to hear @senadorajulie.bsky.social speak tonight about a progressive vision for Colorado as she runs for US Senate against Hickenlooper. It’s time for change.
You approved this guy to run the EPA, in fact, you introduced him as a personal friend.
Report: Staff at Dilley raiding cells to confiscate kids' letters and drawings detailing conditions inside
ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings.

Climate change is coming for ski resorts. Seeing a 50 day ski season for Steamboat by 2050 is wild.

My favorite thing about the bike is that it makes it easy to run errands within a few miles of our home. Most of those 10,000 miles are trips that are 2 miles or less away from our home. From soccer practice to grocery pickups, this hike has been great.
After picking up a carryout dinner tonight, hit 10,000 miles on our @ternbicycles.com GSD cargo bike.
This was possible for our family due to the 5 new bikeways that were built in our neighborhood in the last 5 years so we have safe and comfortable ways to get around via bike.
Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica.
They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.
This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.
