What if rush hour in your city could look like this? 🚴‍♀️ Utrecht is considered one of the world's most bike-friendly city, with about 1/3 of all trips made by bicycles! In the video you can see one of the city's busiest cycling route, with over 33,000 cyclists every single day.

Two years ago today, we turned Upper Highgate Street into a Play Street and remembered four year old Mayar Yahia, tragically killed by a driver. Two years on, the street is still no safer. We hope the council delivers the changes proposed in tribute to Mayar. #WorldCarFreeDay #VisionZero
A street closed to traffic with road closure signs in the rain. People carrying umbrellas gather around gazebos set up in the road.

I ran an experiment, simultaneously posting articles on Bluesky and X, and then testing to see how many people actually clicked and read them. The numbers on Bluesky are higher, both because the X algorithm downranks journalism, and because Bluesky attracts readers, not just shitposters.

Hit by a car cycling home from work today. I’m okay (and very grateful for it), my bike isn’t. My Apple Watch realised I’d had a hard fall and tried to call 999 for me. I was able to tell it in time that I didn’t need help, but I’m still very impressed that the feature worked so well.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024. You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right? Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year. You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

This quote has been on my mind. People say things like “what’s the point of aid, it’s clearly not worked”. People want problems to go away. I get that, it’s human. But we are about to see what will happen when the dull, painstaking work of stopping the worst from happening, suddenly - stops.
