The fact that in America our kids must be professionally programmed each summer day instead of waking up and roving about with their pals is a tragic result of building the entire nation around cars. Cars have stolen American childhood. Wake up.

Correct….as every first year law student learns, the written part of a contract is just for vibes.

Obviously politics is much more sophisticated than the brutish and simplistic statement that "cars make people evil". And yet it has never once been proven wrong..

....or what if we just think it sucks? Not everything is a culture war, man. Sometimes a hideous picture of a human with six fingers is just a hideous picture of a human with six fingers.

I guess the "technically" there is just code for "I'm committing tax fraud to write off my personal vehicle from my business income"

Planners should have to design cities from behind a Rawlsian veil of ignorance. That is to say: the planner will have to live in the city they design, but they don't know *where* in the city.

First picture, a man complains about congestion in a street with large sidewalk, trees and a lot of pedestrians.
Second picture, the same man happy that the street became a road, not noticing that stores are now closed

In NY and family that spend $20 to cross a bridge a dozen times a week are talking about how $15 congestion pricing is going to be the death of Manhattan. People fucking hate transit and love cars. It sucks.

Balitmore Ravens, welcome to The War on Planes.

Who needs a plane? For away games close to home, Ravens players prefer the train.

Any "avid cyclist" who claims that the solution to road safety for cyclists is simply to be more skilled and assertive should be required to demonstrate that they are more skilled and assertive than Olympic Champion Remco Evenepoel who was, this week, doored.

One of my long held theories is that a bike actually provides the freedom of movement and exhilaration that a car promises in a city at a fraction of the cost and the dissonance there drives the people in cars *completely fucking insane*

Fascinating factoid: Colorado has, for the past 100+ years, always been a state where the majority of people who live here have been born outside of Colorado.
Stacked area chart showing where people living in Colorado were born. The "Born in Colorado" cohort varies from 29% in 1900 to a maximum of 49% in 1960 and back down to 42% in 2012.

In terms of mobility, e-bikes are selling faster & having bigger effects on emissions than EVs, much less self-driving EVs. And yet they get vastly, vastly less attention. www.fastcompany.com/90994141/why...

Why 2023 was the year of the e-bike and not the self-driving car
E-bikes and self-driving cars both entered the year with momentum. Only one maintained it.

If Bob Holden really was really concerned about reckless e-bikes he could hold a hearing tomorrow and just ask for an enforcement plan of the existing laws which prohibit bad behavior. Setting up a registration program with NYCDOT is not only expensive, but also useless. Riders have ID.

The mayor of denver is holding a town hall with DOTI employees. Hearing how he supports the rolling back of protected bike lanes. “we need to balance the needs of safety and parking” BIG YAWN!
