Looks like my town. Next to no attention to clearing sidewalks, even by businesses, churches, parks, etc.

The title of this photograph is You Don't Matter If You Aren't In A Car, January 2025, Part 1.

A large signalized intersection of a stroad, where the snow has been cleared from the road down to bare asphalt, and the places where people are supposed to walk are piles of slush and ice that people have had to walk through.

Basically it seems the conservative justices will freely cherrypick both history and European laws to support a preferred outcome, but ignore them in all other cases. Which is not a legitimate way to do originalism or comparative legal analysis!

I also can't get over the conservative justices favorably citing European laws about transgender health care when they vociferously refuse to consider other nation's laws and traditions when dealing with issues on which the U.S. is an outlier, like gun violence and the death penalty.

Posting this again because a lot of people said they found it helpful! Guide to ALT text: www.perkins.org/resource/how...

ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

@nerd4cities.bsky.social I've realized that food trucks are basically just latent demand for mixed use zoning with small non-chain restaurants near to where people work, but in the most American form possible - attached to a truck

I remember reading this when the book came out and thinking "Nah, way too pessimistic". Now the incoming US Health Secretary doesn't think HIV causes AIDS.

Years ago we had the mayor bike to school with my 6 year old, within the first :30 seconds they were almost hit by a driver on live TV. Every leader should be required to ride a bike (if able) with a 6 year old before they provide any direction on bike infrastructure.

4 people on bikes riding in a contraflow lane with a driver in a white car about to cross it making a left.

This is how those fresh and fragrant bundled herbs like parsley get to your grocery store. Workers spend 8 hours a day on their knees harvesting this crop that is used in our #Thanksgiving stuffing. #WeFeedYou

People are often surprised when I tell them this: both Twitter and Facebook/insta/threads are now specifically engineered to downgrade, hide, suppress real journalism. If this platform is different, that's a huge change

It's just pure hatred. Meanwhile, Dems are acting like this is about sports. More than 15k active duty troops could be immediately discharged. They could immediately lose all veterans and GI benefits depending on how they're discharged.

Road deaths have been the leading cause of child and young adult traumatic injury and death, by far, for decades. I understand we have to be nice to the people literally signing our death warrants who claim that they need “incentives” to implement known best practices. What approach do you suggest?

Chart showing very high rate of road deaths as a cause of child death.

Chart showing increase of 77% in pedestrian deaths.

Chart showing the US divergence from peer nations with very high pedestrian deaths.

Raised crosswalks demand motorist attention and naturally enforce speed calming, making modal conflict points safer for everyone. Proper design prioritizes safety. No sign alone can achieve that.
