All those visiting Vancouver for the #WorldCup and cheering our public transit, walkable downtown, & vibrant waterfront, might be interested to know that almost everything noteworthy about our city-building began with the turning point rejection of the freeways that lobotomized so many other cities.

Sketch of the proposed waterfront freeway in downtown Vancouver that was rejected in the late 1960s/early 1970s. There are no freeways/highways within Vancouver city limits. The most important decision in Vancouver city-building history. #Vancouver #FIFA

They told us AI was gonna replace jobs, but would bring a lot of benefits. Have you tried to go through a chat bot and always end up having to wait for a human being? Every time: agents are very busy and you'll have to lose all morning waiting.

"Terrorism" used to mean causing terror, causing fear. The UK is banning an organization that tries to sabotage arm sales direclty involved in perpetrating the genocide in Palestine by tagging it as "terrorist". The population isn't afraid of said organization, there are no human targets.

It's interesting to see Parliament legislating *pedicab* regulations in a time when there are so many pressing issues to address. Is it because MPs get to _actually_ see these every day by Parliament Square or maybe because it reminds them of the 'Global South'? 🤔 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A global scale genocide could be Musk's plan for finding an uninhabited planet earth solely for his offspring and cronies. In his dystopia, for sure, other humans would be kept alive as slaves.

The US government has turned into pure evil. It is as if they're trying to provoke both a civil war and a world war, so they can deliver a global scale genocide.

In the 1660s, this French philosopher came up with an invention that solved the problem of urban transport forever. It had nothing to do with Robo-taxis, flying cars, or Tesla Tunnels. 🧵

Budgetary sustainability isn’t about the number of taxpayers or beneficiaries—it’s about balancing total tax revenue against overall expenses.

The best bike plan starts with a good car plan. Instead of grafting cycle lanes onto their streets in a patchwork approach, Dutch planners practice “ontvlechten”—structural disentangling of the bike and car networks by reducing automobile speed, volume, and access. Haarlemmermeerstraat, Amsterdam.

Road rage is real, and it's experienced not only by drivers, but also by cyclists and pedestrians. 🤬🚗🚴🏽🧑🏽‍🦯 But the main reason is traffic, and it comes only from one group -the deadly one. More cycle lanes ease traffic and make more people willing to leave their cars. youtu.be/wmUP8OH50E0?...

I will never get (probably future generations will think like me) why we keep growing and cutting Christmas trees 🎄 in the cusp of a climate emergency. We could do differently and instead of seeing a dead tree decaying in a living room we could be sponsoring a living one out there 🌲🌲🌲🌲

Trump threatens Mexican sovereignty by proposing to label cartels as terrorists, yet the deadly opioid crisis was sparked by consulting firms and Big Pharma. The real terrorists? Domestic corporations entrenched in the neoliberal status quo.

Emergency vehicles using bike lanes has become a common sight in Paris (see video). Moreover, recently, response times have become significantly shorter, which may be linked to this practice (although it's hard to prove it scientifically)

Can you let let Lisa know that cycle infrastructure is a highly cost-effective policy. Average return for every £1 invested is around £5-6. Hundreds of Millions saved by the NHS, promotes local economies, individuals save money. Road tax? Heavy vehicles (getting heavier) damage roads, bikes don't.

This is who Elon Musk has always been. I am really worried about the infrastructure investments we are finally making that Musk now decides are “waste” because they contradict his personal financial interests.
