Trump at his desk, slouched backwards. An aide checks his breathing, another looks on. The first one says: "No, I'm afraid not - he's just fallen asleep again"

Electric shock collars for children. If you see them misbehaving in public, dial a number, enter the code on the collar, say what they did. Every 10th complaint they get a shock. At the end of the week, they can review their behaviour.

Listen: I don’t want to minimize the danger of high e-bike speeds. But if the problem here is that stores sell e-bikes that can drive faster than legal limits, then where’s the story about how literally *every car dealership has been doing the same thing for decades*?!?

Of all the things that facebook ruined, it was all the small clubs and events moving their online presence there. No more niche websites or forums. Just the dreary homogony of everything in the one same place - and assumption you were on facebook in the first place.

This tool from @observingthecity.ca is fantastic. It shows the traffic mode share by intersection using City data. Many downtown areas are dominated by pedestrians (in green). Yet *we still give most of the space to cars on almost every street.* www.observingthecity.ca/intersection...
