A couple years ago, @henrygrabar.bsky.social wrote about the premium most Americans are willing to pay to live in walkable neighborhoods.

It was, at the time, 35-40% -- so on a half million dollar house, a couple hundred grand.

This is vitally important. 🧵

We Need a Reality Check on Crime, Safety and Transit Despite common assumptions, traveling by bus, subway or train is far safer than driving. How can transit agencies correct misinformation about the real risks?

"...automobile travel has about ten times the death rate as public transit, and transit vehicles also impose less risk on non-occupants like cyclists, pedestrians and other road users. Cars should come with warnings: 'Driving causes painful injuries, disabilities and death.'"

Shoreline Makes Good on Pledge to Stop Mandating Car Parking Citywide » The Urbanist # Shoreline becomes the largest city in King County to let builders decide how much parking makes sense within the specifics of a site, rather than requiring an arbitrary number. The 6-0 city council ...

“We want affordable housing, and reduced hardscape, and trees, and something’s got to give if you’re mandating all those things, and parking is the obvious choice.” -Shoreline Councilmember Keith Scully

No one who is supporting Trump is ever going to be convinced by this shit.

The only convincing needed here is for those of us who are horrified to pull ICE away from these innocent people, forcefully and permanently.

No one else is gonna.

Public Health Experts: Narrow Lanes Should Be the Default on City Streets A recent public health study out of Johns Hopkins has found that narrow lanes reduce crashes on streets, and recommends that lanes as narrow as 9 feet wide be the default.

Make 10' lanes (or narrower) the default for local streets. Require agencies to justify any decision to build wider than that. www.strongtowns.org/journal/2023...

We urge voters in Brooklyn's 39th Council District to re-elect Shahana Hanif. She fought to extend her district's 9th St. protected bike lane in 2023, and worked with colleagues to secure safety upgrades along Atlantic Ave. More on @shahanafrombk.bsky.social here: www.streetspac.org/2025_nyc_pri...

The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

Has any journalist looked into who these men are? Why is this allowed for law enforcement? How do we know this isn't a right-wing assassin? Has ICE filled the ranks with militia members, Proud Boys, 3%s, KKK, and the like? Is that why their identities are being hidden and why they dress like this?

This is bravery and decency. This is what people upset about this administration want. If you really believe this stuff is wrong, and you have a public profile and principles and want to say you're a leader, then get out there and do the damn thing.

I can't think of anyone currently running for office more dangerous than Andrew Cuomo. Not just for NYC but for the nation, because unfortunately NYC disproportionately affects the rest of the states. Bad politicians elsewhere don't have the same structural power. NYC: Do not vote for this man.

“The owner of the car [that gets the device] may not be the person who’s driving the car,” Magnarelli said, summarizing some of the opposition to the bill (S4045/A2299). “Ninety percent of the time they are the same, but they’re not necessarily. Now you’re going to take the car away from the family. This is where due process comes in and [the Assembly lawyers] are looking into how we deal with due process.”

This isn’t even true. The family of the speeding driver wouldn’t lose access to the car. They’d lose the ability to *speed* in that car, which would have a speed governor installed. Meanwhile, it’s the families whose loved ones are killed by egregiously reckless drivers who actually lose something.

This is it! You can't game the system as an individual voter. Your first two choices should be your "I'd love for them to be mayor" picks. Next two should be "I'd be okay with them" picks. Last one should be the "It beats the alternative" pick. In other words, just rank in order of preference.
