San Diego has 2x the population of Helsinki and about 270 people died in traffic related fatalities in 2024
“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas & city center in 2021.”
Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.

We're under the Pharoah, we're in the time of plagues. We're gonna have to make it through the desert, and hope we're navigating well enough to make it to the promised land.

I think some degree of collapse is inevitable at this point.
I just hope that enough of us ride to the occasion and act as leaders and helpers and carry each other through and get to a place where we can at least orient ourselves towards a better path.

I also think/hope that it is coming to a head in many ways, and that the next five to ten years will be a time of reckoning.
Either we make things right, or we collapse in on ourselves.

I will say again that it has been just *beyond* hammered home for me that not only do we not live in a meritocracy, we live in an economic and sociopolitical order that actively rewards avarice, incompetence, unkindness, dishonesty.
And tbh that makes me feel better about my lack of success.

A knock-on effect of Trump suddenly looking weak is people feel emboldened to push back against his flunkies too. Turns out the media knows exactly how to do this when they want to
KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?
HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--
KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

The thing is. Imagine if anyone spoke to you like this in real life. There's approximately a 50% chance you'd punch them in the face. Every day is such an utter fucking disgrace to the presidency.

Welcome to being a woman.
Why do journalists have no apparent solidarity whatsoever? This rancid POS jabs his finger in a woman reporter's face and calls her "piggy" and none of the other journalists there says a word?
