How much would it cost to make a deck of these?

I can't believe they'd make this comic

Who publishes Superman?

This is from the 2016 Flintstones comic and it's WILD

I'm partial to a regular old mace

Nice and simple, very swingy

Is there a community for green memes like this? Love it

I just started biking again so I might be a bit naive

Hopefully things keep improving. I'm definitely in favor of Dutch style transportation

I suspect that's true if only because most us cities haven't improved at all

Boston is putting in a bunch of bike lanes but most of them aren't protected

That said, the North end has a wonderful separated bike lane. Same as the seaport

Except for a stretch by long wharf I can just about bike the entire way using separated bike lanes if I don't mind going out of my way a little bit

The more of this kind of small vehicle traffic we get the better supported it is. Safer traffic patterns, dedicated lanes, repair stores and vendors, etc.

I think you're also seeing some political organizing to that front, too. Cambridge MA has a biking advocacy group putting pressure on government to put in more biking infrastructure.

Big car might have a stranglehold on big government but people paying attention to small local elections can make a big difference
