Watching us stave off elimination from The Canuck in NYC. They are hamming up the Canadian identity here. They are also blasting Tiger Army on their playlist. Wow clearly winning a way to my heart. #gokingsgo #lakings #hnom @hockey

Here in #sanfrancisco, we burn public money for costly, nit-picky, and obstructionist process in order to preserve the sensibilities of the wealthy home-owning class. This isn't "fighting capitalism," this is capitalism.

HEADLINE: "Concerns grow over safety of e-bikes amid reports of accidents"
We are now entering an era of some amazing pearl clutching over #ebikes.

Of course E-bike accidents are on the rise. More riders=more accidents. Worsened by the fact that drivers are not only used to (but also outright refuse) sharing the road with anyone else, let alone e-bikes.

Any deviation or challenge to car-dominance triggers a super weird victim blaming reflex with headlines like "Teen boy killed in E-bike crash" to describe a teen ebike rider getting hit by a multi-ton cargo van.

ClEArly the BiKe'S FauLT. Fantastic journalism. Call it a day!

daveyk, 8 months ago to transit

Listening to the #NYT #HardFork dudes interview the #safestreetrebel #transit activists putting cones on autonomous vehicles.

I like this podcast, but as "technologists", the hosts are pretty myopic for about the problem of car centrism:

"AVs are safer than humans, so this is a net positive"

Guys! It's about sustainable systems away from car dependency!!

"Public transit is inferior product with cost overruns"

Implying that car dependent infrastructure isn't while treating it as always free and always given

"Well internationally it's easier to take a taxi than to use transit"

You either don't travel internationally or you don't bother to use world class transit when it is sitting right in front you.

The #oilers outplayed the #lakings through 3 periods and should have won if it wasn't for their insane lack of discipline. It's almost as if being an elite talent powerhouse gives license to act like total children. #nhl #playoffs #hnom

Billionaire sports team owners prey on the love that fans have for their favorite teams.

Sadly, they often use it as leverage to extract money from the public for stadium deals.

And if we don’t play ball, they’ll take our favorite teams away.
