Last night I rode my bike a couple of miles to the grocery. Halfway there I noticed a young college age white girl following me. At a light I turned to look at her and she bolted, turned around and rode off.

When I came out of the grocery the same girl rode up and apparently assumed I didn't recognize her.

White people who act that crazy have almost gotten me killed before, so I smiled, spoke politely, and let her play out her little Karen drama of being so sly and superior as she politely insulted me.

This kind of thing has become routine here in the #SFBA with it mostly being women, though twice this year I've had white men follow and interrogate me, photographing my registration number, absolutely certain my bike must be stolen.

I've searched high and low across these 50 states and sadly the best I've been able to do minding my own damn business is to trigger people enough to act crazy but not enough to get murdered, at least so far.
