Fwiw, I've seen people with truck nuts-like attachments on their saddles, it's definitely a thing.

Where on the bike were you picturing the earrings?

We urgently need more young people in politics, so this is nice to see. Here's an excerpt from her website:

My name is Cecilia Lunaparra and I am a queer, Mexican-American woman running to represent Berkeley City Council District 7, which encompasses the UC Berkeley campus and most of the Southside neighborhood. I am a UC Berkeley senior studying Urban Studies and History, and I am strongly committed to representing our community while centering the needs of young people and our most marginalized community members.
