Americans: we live in a fallen state—embroiled by sin, cheating, lying, and evil. You cannot trust anyone, not even those who claim to know you best Canadians: I love my neighbors and my friends!

Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen — the guys who created Axios and Politico — look back on 20 years of their own disruption of political news. www.axios.com/2026/01/13/p... "Politico profited from the intense readership of political professionals, not the large national online audience." Indeed.

People have been trying to talk London down, but the evidence tells a different story. Last year saw: The lowest murder rate per capita since records began The fewest murders of those aged under 25 this century One of the lowest numbers of homicides for almost three decades

On one hand, reducing car use reduces urban pollution. But on the other, everyone likes it and cities become more livable
Average nitrogen dioxide concentration in Paris has fallen significantlyHer proposals have faced pushback — from right-leaning politicians, a car owners’ association and suburban commuters, who say that targeting cars makes their lives more difficult.

But last month, Parisians voted in a referendum to turn an additional 500 streets over to pedestrians. A year earlier, Paris had moved to sharply increase parking fees for SUVs, forcing drivers to pay three times more than they would for smaller cars. The city has also turned a bank of the Seine from a busy artery into a pedestrian zone and banned most car traffic from the shopping boulevard of Rue de Rivoli.

Carlos Moreno, a professor at Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University and a former adviser to the city, said the French capital has developed “an urban policy based on well-being.”

Highly recommend @mjtoma.bsky.social's latest, which tries to locate the place where the New York Times has been weak, while establishing at the outset that it has also been strong ("...the scoops division of the paper is working more or less as it should.") newrepublic.com/article/1987...
