mostly the same as this name anywhere — fascinated by earth and related-science. So far this is more of a science account and the sfba one is more of a personal account, but there will always be sloppy overlap.

This concrete crossing facility has already been issued blight tickets and wants to expand. Shouldn't it clean up first?

Cement is environmentally destructive and energy intensive to make, and concrete is polluting to reuse. We need building materials, wood, steel, concrete. But when we tear down buildings to build shinier ones* or we build a bunch of sprawling offices in real estate booms then they sit empty (this was a thing in the San Jose, California area even before covid), we're making it worse, not better.

Serious politics going on to try to disrupt a plan to make Los Angeles safer for pedestrians and cyclists. Quite a bit of car-supporting backlash, highlighting the issues that seem to come up in any plan to attempt to battle fossil fuels usage.

Candidate for City Council:
“We don’t have room for bicycle lanes that one person might ride down once a day,” he said. “We need the mobility, and we need it for cars.”

@ai6yr I use a car and can't ride a bike and still support the huge road changes Fremont is making to support bicyclists.

Just noticed there's no 13th row on this plane. I'd booked 14A, but someone accidentally took my seat so I'm in 12A. Seems like row 14 is actually row 13. This deception cannot be hidden from the gods.

@tsherrygeo there are buildings in NYC without a 13th floor. That's for people who don't want bad luck

    Community members chanted “Classrooms, not courtrooms!,” “Homework, not handcuffs!” “Education, not incarceration!,” and “Free, free Timothy!” as a young resident emerged from Cameron County juvenile court.

    All charges were dropped against 11-year-old Timothy Murray, the boy who, we previously reported, had been placed in confinement. @josephinelee brings us this update: https://www.texasobserver.org/judge-dismisses-charges-against-brownsville-isd-honor-student?utm_campaign=mastodon

    @webuiltthiscity it means I can't make it most days but I'm still glad it's there. The only time it's been, the parks were "closed" because of funding. It was empty except for us and our dogs.

    This conversation has made me curious about why Sen Wiener proposed speed limiting devices as opposed to other forms of controlling speed, like extra stoplights, cameras, traffic cops, etc. I don't know enough about traffic research. Any insight?
