This is the future I want for Boston. There are lots of ways to get around in a city that don't involve massive and highway designed SUVs and gargantuan gender-affirming pickup trucks #CarLiteBoston

Watching cars speed down cleared streets while watching pedestrians scramble over three foot high snow banks or having to walk in the street to avoid uncleared walkways has the War on Cars part of my brain very activated

Three takeaways for Boston from NYC’s congestion pricing scheme - The Boston Globe After a year of the first American program of its kind, there’s enough data to recommend the idea.

Congestion pricing in NYC has worked and has become popular. Cities like Boston should follow.

Sadly, I woke up to gunshots at around 4:15am this morning near this spot. Any information about what's happening?

I'm pushing for no right on red at Walnut and Seaver! I had an aggressive driver tell me to get out of his way so he could take a ROR while I was waiting in the bike box the other day. 😡

Ambulance Data Reveals That Boston Drivers Are 4 Times More Likely to Run Over Pedestrians From Black Neighborhoods - Streetsblog Massachusetts "Overall, residents of predominantly Black and Latino neighborhoods are about four times more likely than residents of predominantly white neighborhoods to be struck as a pedestrian."

Sadly this is so obvious (and appalling) analyzing the data isn't really necessary. All you have to do is looks at the road designs and lack of pedestrian infrastructure in these neighborhoods.

Just had this conversation with parents and staff at the Davis A. Ellis Elem School on Walnut Ave in Roxbury this morning! We have some traffic calming measures coming (in '26, '27??). Not soon enough!

Had a blast at @icaboston.bsky.social on #BostonFamilyDays! We love museums and are happy to support them with membership and tickets purchases when we can, but this awesone program allows us and so many other families to explore so much more than we'd otherwise be able to.

Somehow my 6yo's new favorite song is none other than Tears for Fears's 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World.' He wants to listen to it on repeat at bedtime...and I'm totally into it! 👨‍🎤
