Another good practice for the New Year would be for all the non-fascists in America who want to opine about politics to really begin believing that urban America is Real America & that its denizens are The Authentic People. Get some self-respect & drop the volkish nationalist view that they're not
And I think liberals should stop taking the bait and ceding ground on immigration.
Immigration is good. Multiculturalism is good. Free trade is good. Stop being embarrassed to say so.

so much of the bike infrastructure debate is shaped by the presupposition that people who drive cars need their cars, whereas people who ride bikes don’t really need them

It’s only a matter of time until his mental deterioration will cross the line of acceptability to his base. All of his speeches prior to November of last year were still considered “eloquent” despite how incoherent he was
I know it sucks they’re airing his speeches and refuse to air ours, but if he’s going to act like a confused, confusing, addled maniac I actually do what that broadcast into as many American homes as is possible

I know this is kind of bad in terms of climate change, but I want my high temps in the 80s. I don’t like cold weather
It looks as though the🔥Heat Miser🔥has taken over the latest outlook for Christmas week (Dec 23-29)! There is a high probability of warmer-than-normal temperatures for most of the US. Alaska, the Pacific Northwest, and New England have a better chance of seeing "classic" Christmas weather.

Remember this picture, & others like it, every time you hear someone in your city say "we're not Amsterdam."
This was #Amsterdam in the 1970s.
Many of the cities we admire made better choices regarding cars in the past. and are still making better choices today.
Better choices instead of excuses.

No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should

We need more legislation like this
Santa Fe is now the first city to tie the minimum wage to the cost of rent.
The Santa Fe City Council voted to raise its minimum wage from $15/hr to $17.50 by 2027 — but they also added another provision.
Future increases will factor in inflation, and the price of housing.

"When we started getting input from residents after committing the city to leaving DART, some pointed to our 'City of Excellence' motto. Like, 'Cities have transit!', and frankly, they have a point," a councilman told Suburbanista.
"We're listening! Rest assured that we'll choose a new motto soon."

I think we need to invest more in alternative transportation instead of subsidizing parking in the densest part of the city. Transit is the greatest wealth accelerator after all. Plus, we can have more spaces to build great places instead of housing for cars
Free parking in downtown Fort Worth garages will be in your rearview mirror next year
