The 7-11 Rule re safe cycling.
(thought it up fall of 2022):
1. Could a 7 year old ride safely when with an adult?
2 . Could an 11 year old ride safely by themselves?
3. 7x11 = 77. Would a 77 year old feel safe on a bicycle here?
Safe means:
*actually safe
*feels safe and not dangerous
*everyone 7, 11 & 77 years old feel that cycling is viable where they are needing to go.
Share everywhere please as The 7-11 Rule & get your city to do it!

There are even people who have (or adopt) children so they can harvest their organs for themselves.
Not, like, kill and gut them (though I'm sure that happens too, I'm just not aware of any convicted cases), but once they're a teenager with mostly adult organs then you pressure them into giving you a kidney or half a liver or something.
I wish I was joking.

"The #insurance giant #StateFarm, America’s biggest car and home insurer by premium volume, will halt the sale of new #HomeInsurance policies in #California, citing #wildfire risk and inflation of construction costs."
Let that sink in: You can build a home in California, but State Farm refuses to insure it. I'm sure other insurers will follow.
