Hearing older folks try to legitimize the idea of video games to each other is one of the weirdest experiences.
They usually cite:
1. Age ("x series has been going since the 80's)
2. Popularity ("millions of people play/love it")
3. Revenue ("x has made so much money-")

Two of the most common climate misconceptions I see, even among knowledgeable folks, are that (1) most people aren't worried about climate change, and (2) if they were, they'd act.
Not true! Data show (1) most people are worried, but (2) they won’t act if they don’t know what to do-and most don’t.

Have never listened to @thewaroncars.bsky.social podcast, but followed them on Bsky because of urbanist mutuals like @nerd4cities.bsky.social , @ohtheurbanity.bsky.social , etc.
After seeing 10,000,000 posts, I have finally broken down and preordered Life After Cars. Very much looking forward to it

The implicit argument here, that pedestrians and cyclists are at fault for their own deaths, is REALLY problematic. So many people are killed in crosswalks and sidewalks, if they even exist! I'm sorry, but wearing a helmet will not save you if a 6,000 lb. SUV blows a red light!
