#Baltimore
#BaltimoreBikeParty took over the Hanover Street Bridge last night. Really demonstrates safety in numbers, because it's terrifying to do solo.

Saturday Morning 7 mile run, not my fastest, but good to get mileage in.

My latest for @BaltimoreHistories: Part Two of “Revisiting the ‘Baltimore ‘68’’ Oral History Interviews” – “As white leaders continued to fall short on promises to Black communities, Black Baltimoreans decided enough was enough and carved out space for liberation.”

Just got back from my first #Baltimore #BikeParty and it was a blast! Talked to nice strangers, saw some friends, blocked traffic, yelled “BIKE PARTY” loud enough to wake the dead, and made it home safe. If you like any of those things, come out the last Friday of the month and join us!

Smoke Bellow - “Fuck On” (2021)
Baltimore, MD trio that makes cool pop songs. Been listening to this a lot lately.
They were apparently inspired by classic post punk bands and were struck with the partnership of drums and bass as propulsive instruments.
This particular track creates a real mood, and the repetitive vocals has a kind of 80s sound to it (makes me think of Tones On Tail’s “Go”).

Hi all, am trying out Calckey to see if I like it. Here's an #introduction: I'm Nick, a high school teacher of computer science, engineering, and (formerly) mathematics from Baltimore, Maryland, USA. I also sometimes teach teachers. At work, I love doing interdisciplinary STEM projects with students, working with robots, teaching students app development, and more. Outside of work, I love reading (especially mystery novels), walks in nature, pursuing peace and social justice, and I love my city of Baltimore! #Introduction, #teaching, #STEM, #appdev, #math, #compsci, #engineering, #Baltimore
