Alex @3eeutiful.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Its a massive policy failure that the only way to hold bad drivers accountable is to wait for them to crash and have them stop driving bc of economic repercussions like insurance rates and car loans. @govpritzker.illinois.gov @mayorofchicago.bsky.social 130

Alex @3eeutiful.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Im not familiar with Albany Park but id bet they'd have an easy time doing local errands there.

Alex @3eeutiful.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I dont understand this. Brodway st is extremely pedestrianizable and Lawson would never stick his neck out to fight for its pedestrianization.
