I've spent 1000s of hours posting on here and deeply appreciate what Twitter/X did for media & democracy... I even like the folks who disagree w me! I hate this decision, but it's time. Musk has gone too far & I don't feel good being a part of something he so actively owns.

Concrete planters for calming traffic removed after frequent collisions - @PBOTinfo thought 2,500 pound planters would do the trick. So did we! bikeportland.org/2024/07/30/…
