@mnolangray I’d be fine with entire residential city blocks in Vancouver being turned into Barcelona-style five or six story apartments with street level shops and restaurants. The apartments would be large, and four and five bedroom floorplans would be common. There would be no parking.
Imagine there were a massive fire in a town.
Between the NASCAR street closures and the POTUS motorcade closures, much of the city is gridlocked and a lot of Chicagoans are thinking of alternative ways to get around. Mobility for all. 🚌 🚊 🚲
If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via @thediscourse study. This isn’t just about choice. It’s about who pays for your choice. #citymakingmath

My advice to people who get cars stolen is, don't leave it outside. If you're concerned about theft during the day, make sure you have a good lock -- I'm pretty happy with Kryptonite -- and you can add a chain for extra security, but always bring it inside with you overnight.

Today, March 13, 2023 marks the 3 year anniversary of “Operation Don’t Get or Give Covid” for our family. While many people have surrendered, our family is still in this fight. Here are 5 things we did today to grieve and celebrate this milestone.
If @SecretaryPete held the auto Industry accountable to the same extent he does Airlines, many lives would be saved. While PB talks about road safety he tolerates deadly vehicle design, sketchy safety standards & irresponsible advertising: he implicitly tolerates road fatalities.

A parent should be able to drive safely with her child and not watch him die because our roads are so dangerous. C'mon @SecretaryPete get your priorities straight. American citizens - American children - are dying violently on our roads and you worry about seat assignments? ?!?
