Seeing people singing with genuine enthusiasm in their cars keeps me from losing hope.

Because I live in hell (winter edition), when I stop at an intersection, I mostly just see angry guys with beards vaping and listening to podcasts about how everyone they hate deserves to die. Seeing an average Joe send it at a red light to I don't even care what gives me life force.

@HG

I've seen what anger becomes, how it destroys all it touches.

"I come home in the mornin' light
My mother says, "When you gonna live your life right?"
Oh, mama dear, we're not the fortunate ones

And girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, girls just wanna have fun"

I play Cuban Son through speakers in my helmet when I ride my bike home. At traffic lights, invariably I shimmy some. The other day a woman in a car nearby beeped her horn quickly and she and her passenger gave a Mexican wave.
Made my week!

@HG I love this, and I do miss pumping my fave song when it came on the radio, only to hear it pumping through the car next to me too, shared joy!

@MamaLake

It's a beautiful thing.

@HG @MamaLake Now you have me thinking: why don't we sing in that same free way when we ride our bikes? We need to normalise that.
Show threadJenica Lake เหล็ถเลถMar 22
@CiaraNi @HG yes!! Normalize singing (and humming) along to our favorite jams. I would wager that people would join in if they could really hear you. :)

@MamaLake @HG I am off out on my bike soon and the sun is shining. Maybe I will test this theory today.

@CiaraNi @HG I’d love to know what song(s) rises out of this :)

@HG I love singing in the car. Traffic lights means I can bust out some emotive hand dancing too😆

@HG but they could be singing death ritual songs...

I still think about that time I figured out how to sing Footloose in singer-songwriter style. ⭐ 🌈

@HG Also blasting Klingon opera.

@HG a colleague has a car that bongs at them and tells them they need to take a break whenever they sing... The driver monitoring thinks their singing is yawning.
