Just saw a cyclist say “you’re still following me?!” to a car parking on the street. They both got out to talk to each other … and ended up commiserating about how scary it is to both bike and drive in this city. No conflict no drama just bros being bros. Spring is here.

_______________________________@filipamv.bsky.social · 10mo agoAfter the Rubygems drama, I felt frustrated that I can’t escape evil people trying to dominate my life.
