Never forget, car dependency isn’t freedom.
Some might ask “what’s more free than cars?”
Choices.
Choices are more free than car dependency.
It’s not a hard concept.
I’m not pitting cars against any other single mode of transport.
I’m rejecting design that creates dependency on just one mode.

Did someone bury a tiny lemon? Nope, this is an earthworm cocoon!
After mating, both earthworms will produce small cocoons like this, each containing a fertilised egg. Inside, a baby earthworm will grow, before hatching out the end like a tiny pink noodle!

Glass sponges appear in fossil record between about 660 million & 635 million years ago. They play a complex role in ecosystems, providing sanctuary for many animals. Can you count how many animals are taking refuge on this odd-looking sponge? #DiagnosingDeepCoral expedition, 2023

Meanwhile, federal employees and folks like me must decline a gift more than $20 in value.
Actual example in ethics training: if I give a talk at a school or museum and they want to gift me a coffee cup and t-shirt—I must decline one.
So glad our leaders are held to the same ethical standards 🙃

Breaking News: President Trump plans to accept a luxury Boeing 747 from Qatar that he will use as Air Force One and will keep using after he leaves office. The plan — involving possibly the biggest foreign gift ever received by the U.S. government — raises substantial ethical issues.
