Just a casual reminder that Germans who “didn’t bother to vote” in 1932 didn’t get a chance again until 1946, after Hitler’s death. — There’s a lesson there.

Obama: "That well-known evil empire Canada. That historical adversary of ours. Canada! *laughs* It's your neighbor. It's a few minutes' drive over the bridge! These are the people who gave us Martin Short and maple syrup. They are the nicest people! And someone we've gotten them so mad."

Ahem. For those who may be unaware, Montreal is a cold *winter* city. Colder and snowier than Toronto. And it now ranks 2nd among the world’s best cycling cities. So don't even. momentummag.com/montreal-ran…

London traffic this morning🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲 Having expanded London's network of Cycleways from 90km in 2016 to over 450km today, there are now on average 1.5 million cycle trips a day. Wonderful to be part of this happy group of commuters.

James Talarico: I am tired of us being divided into teams—left vs. right, blue vs. red, urban vs. rural. Show of hands. How many people here have an elderly parent or grandparent who needs care? So do I. How many people struggle with the high price of everything? So do I.
