Posting unverified information makes it harder for everyone. As someone who responds to tips to vet them, posting "white truck going slow don't know if is ice tinted windows" or "ice driving around" (real reports) is incredibly unhelpful. When reporting use S.A.L.U.T.E.

Interesting new paper compares density upzonings in two similar BC cities that had dramatically different effects in terms of construction & value uplift.

Almost twice as many people ride the New York City bus every day as live in Wyoming.

The bus should have two senators
The Senators that voted 'yes' on this disastrous bill represent more than 30 million FEWER Americans than the Senators that voted 'no.'
