Modal filters discriminate... Between safe human-scale transportation and the destructive and deadly motorists that try to infest every paved city space.

It’s a pretty big deal when this KEY MESSAGE is in Scientific American. It suggests a bigger tipping point. “We Need to Make Cities Less Car-Dependent: Reducing the need for car travel is better for health, the environment and public safety.” Via @sciam scientificamerican.com/article/we-nee…
When you think of transit as a substitution for people who don't have access to a car instead of as a substitute for the car, you will never have a good transit system.
Either the IDF is extremely bad at identifying targets, to the point that it’s dangerous for aid workers and civilians, and the U.S. should stop sending them weapons. OR Netanyahu is lying and the U.S. should stop sending them weapons. Either way—STOP. SENDING. THEM. WEAPONS.

I love how people look at this and go "Nooo don't do this, where will I drive?" and then never drive there anyways.
"Ok bike dork, but how do you expect someone to haul home $200 in groceries?!"
Rather than regulating the design of auto manufacturers, we're shifting over to "One more guardrail, bro".

So, if the size of highways correlates with the growth of a city and region, why is Cincinnati filled with freeways, while Tokyo, which is 22 times bigger, is not?
"In a perfect world and if it were possible, I would like to be able to walk or bike to work every day" Agree: 59% Disagree: 12% Does Not Apply: 29% Ipsos / February 16, 2024 / n=1000 / Online
One of the crazy things to me about Florida is that they could have built a literal utopia by creating the Amsterdam of the tropics. Walkability, great weather, clearwater canals, the whole nine yards. Instead, they chose to build suburbia, but with swamps.
I love how American society has somehow made wanting to make the world a better place for everyone a divisive and controversial issue. It'd be crazy if we started working together as a society rather than against each other as the pawns of the rich and powerful.
"The truck has been seized and will undergo a mechanical inspection" how about a goddamn VISUAL inspection. If you can't drive around in a parking lot without killing someone maybe your truck is TOO LARGE I'm sorry to everyone who is upset by this. cheknews.ca/woman-dies-aft…
The majority of American truck owners are not actively using them in the trades or managing a farm or ranch. They're security blanket commuter vehicles.

32K Followers 40 Following •Realtor @ The Oppenheim Group •Cast of "Selling Sunset" on Netflix@RM_Transit I’m bullish on the Brightline. Cars and highways are still highly integrated in people’s daily lives in the US and Canada. More drivers seeing trains pass by them at high speeds will do a lot to shift people’s transportation preferences.
@RM_Transit What's the technology for this look like? Time for a video!
@RM_Transit I just really wish a government had the state capacity or inspiration to do this.
I think its underrated how powerful Brightline becoming good at slapping down a 125mph, or 186mph rail right of way along a highway could be for the US and Canada. Combine that with new regional rail in cities and you could have a half decent HSR system!

@AgileJebrim @elmaoist @HCLPO No, it doesn’t. There will still be roads and parking lots. Why do you guys make things up to get mad at?
@HCLPO Drive to work. The 15 minute city you live in lets you walk to the store instead of being forced to drive at all times. Nothing is stopping you from driving.
@HCLPO Then you take the job. Nobody is saying we shouldn’t allow people to take jobs with a 30 minute commute
@HCLPO You would think the Libertarian Party would recognize the damage caused by zoning ordinances, which are what have prevented the “15 minute city development pattern”, otherwise known everywhere else in the world as a “city”.
Post a picture YOU took. Just a pic. No description.
Years ago, an active shooter alert was put out on my campus. Risked my life throwing students to into my office and them telling them not to open the door if anything happened to me. It was a false alarm. Here is an administration inviting shooters to rooftops.
Peak Minneapolis: Two group rides cross paths on the Greenway on a chilly Sat morning: -one group w/ speedy road cyclists in full kits -the other going 8mph with a live guitarist on a cargo trailer + a ton of kids …& both groups give high fives as we pass each other. 🚲 ❤️

ISP gratuitously drove over and smashed the plastic bottled water. They knocked students to the ground and kicked them in the head. They can be driven out of Bloomington. There are more of us than there are of them.
