There are two questions these people need to answer: 1. How does a vehicle approaching from behind that is about to hit you sound different from a vehicle approaching from behind that is about to miss you? 2. If it did sound different, what action could a rider take in one second or thereabouts?

Holy shit. No wonder Carney told the US to pound sand.

“Is the national leader talking like someone who would be capable of convincing a bartender that he can handle another drink, y/n?”

A driver hit me with their car today while making a right-turn-on-red. I’m uninjured, and also more angry than usual at how we let car drivers kill us with only the occasional, incremental, reactionary change to the street.

One of the actions #SummerGame players can take for points is to make a public comment at a meeting of the AADL Board of Trustees. This always makes for very rewarding civic engagement, but this young player took it to the next level and displayed a preternatural grasp of parliamentary procedure!

TikTok has incredible moderation team. Our InfoWars video about Multiple Horse Theory — the idea that there are many horses in the world and not just one — has been fully deemed misinformation and lost the formal appeals process. Confirmed by Larry Ellison: There is only one horse on Earth.

Hey Google, why are you pushing 18+ feature updates to my phone?

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

#a2council Also, I'm sorry, but I'm going to need an explanation from @a2publicpower.bsky.social on these scores. Under Rabhi's watch as county commissioner, we have gotten data center projects starting up in Saline Township, Ypsi Township, and Augusta Township

🧵 The 2027 Michigan budget earmarks are out and @bridgemi.com has a good summary. Jumping out at me is a very generous earmark ($790k for water infrastructure) for the wealthiest municipality in the State, the Village of Barton Hills bridgemi.com/michigan-gov...

If vehicles keep swelling, cities “could lose between 8.5-14% of their on-street parking capacity by 2040. London and Berlin alone are each projected to shed around 100K spaces…in dense cities, it’s a major issue worldwide.” #Carspreading pushes out more than parking spots. Tax cars by the inch.

It's funny that the newspapers treat DSA-endorsed candidates like they are Bastille-storming revolutionaries when in reality DSA members are almost comically procedure oriented

my folks live in the service area and they have reps from our stormwater management team on-site today, removing a fallen tree that's blocking a nearby creek. my mom said dad has already supplied the crew with coffee and mini donuts. updates to follow.

@ Ward 4 Ann Arbor City Council Candidate Dave Zeglan, please unblock me on TikTok 🙏 I haven’t even gotten to stitch your video yet.

And as for antisemitism, well, Acker loved to claim that any critique of his behavior was "antisemitism", a move that cheapens a very real threat and makes us all less safe. He's the boy who cried wolf.

1. In devastating news, the Supreme Court just ruled in favor of conversion therapy, a practice the UN calls torture. The ruling could have catastrophic consequences, writes Jackson in her sole dissent. The ruling comes on trans day of visibility. Subscribe to support our journalism.

When people ask us if self-driving cars will make roads safer... maybe?? It's not clear yet. They'll definitely add congestion. But we have existing technologies - like speed limiters - that will DEFINITELY make roads safer and can be implemented today. Let's start with the easy solutions first?

When a car literally kills an entire family, it's just a tragic accident and there's nothing that can be done, because it might inconvenience a driver.

Like listening to otherwise normal people talk about a bike lane or a traffic-calming measure is just nuts. You'd think a speed bump killed their entire family

This @the-independent.com story is such an obvious lift of mine that they didn’t even bother deleting my site’s referral URL. And no, they do not credit me for reporting it first or (intentionally) link to my story. In j-school, rewording someone else’s reporting was called plagiarism. 1/

#a2council nobody knows how anything works and they do not care to learn

Weird to see a historic district advocate arguing against permitting mixed use in historic neighborhoods that were historically mixed use. It’s almost like historic preservation isn’t the actual goal … #a2council

“…disabled people are actually less likely to drive than nondisabled people and more likely to get around by walking and rolling and taking transit. Car-heavy cities are also disproportionately dangerous for disabled folks…”— @nondriver.bsky.social Don’t use accessibility “as a political football.”

Happy International Women's Day. 🏴

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

As the election season ramps up, listen for the candidates who are centering their campaigns on the “Taylor machine” fallacy and consider what else they might be ignorant of or mischaracterizing.

I am not making it up! #a2council is much more contentious than the rest of the country! district.myhamlet.com/articles/ann...

As someone who pays a lot of attention to #a2council politics and knows many of the people involved to varying degrees, the “Mayor Taylor machine” narrative has always been a strong signal of either ignorance or bad faith. These data show this clearly.

🧵 Living in Michigan, if a political issue seems frustratingly impossible to advance, you can almost always find the roots in policies motivated by racial and economic segregation. When you scrape back the "housing theory of everything" you find racism and classism under the hood.

The living alone tax is real. Same chicken two very different prices per pound.
