1h40m of @flightradar24.com NYC-bound traffic sped up by 20,000% down to 30 seconds.

It’s not too often we see all three major airports using the same runway 4 approaches. It’s beautiful.

New article out this month on how doctors become fascists.

50% of German physicians joined the Nazi Party––twice the proportion of any other profession. US doctors today are arguably the most conservative in the world, and we're heading along a similar path.

Damn... This was really brave and perfectly executed. The way you guys planted multiple people all around the room and spoke up one at a time overwhelmed their security. This was brilliant. I respect it.💙👏😎

Making intersections safe for everyone! Another great video from Oh The Urbanity and this topic reinforces my belief that everyone should be required to take a course called "Mobility Education." Think Driver's Ed but taught from multiple perspectives of walking, biking transit and even driving.

“London hits 'historic' clean air milestone 184 years early…a 'truly remarkable turnaround for the city's air quality.”

Quite a leadership achievement for @london.gov.uk’s government! While nations talk, (some) cities act. And get results.

This isn’t fearmongering — it’s reality. Hospital-acquired COVID can delay care or cost you your health — even your life.

Infection control measures — masks, ventilation, testing, and staff/patient protections — should be standard care in every healthcare setting.

Prognostic Chats @PrognosticChats Some day you’ll be in hospital for surgery or chemotherapy or with another illness & a nurse, or doctor or visitor at the next bed, or the patient opposite you will give you a Covid infection & your treatment will get delayed & your life will be put at unnecessary risk. 4:28 AM · Oct 12, 2025 · 5,515 Views

"OWNERS REPEATEDLY COMPLAINED ABOUT TESLAS FAILING TO DETECT ONCOMING TRAINS"

Tesla's Full-Self Driving software is now under federal investigation, including its behavior at train crossings, after an NBC News investigation.

In September, NBC News found that Tesla owners repeatedly complained about Teslas failing to detect oncoming trains.

🚨NEW ANALYSIS: 22 years of evidence confirm what we’ve long known - smart growth (i.e. transit-oriented development) creates more construction jobs, higher wages & stronger unions than suburban sprawl.

Smart growth = good jobs, cleaner air, better cities.

above all LVCVA's mission is to fill hotel rooms so what if environmental laws are scoffed. one could also argue how idiotic running cars thru small tunnels is versus you know an actual public transport system.

Vegas is and always will be corrupt.

Nevada could’ve fined the company more than $3 million, but regulators are seeking a reduced penalty of $242,800, citing an “extraordinary number of violations.”

Three newly published books argue that cars are destroying society as well as the planet.

Is the world finally ready to rein in the automobile?

My essay, in @bloomberg.com (gift link below)
‘Car Brain’ Is Making the US Unhealthy and Dangerous. EVs Won’t Fix It.
A trio of new books argue that we need to confront the full range of costs that car-based living has imposed on our cities, our health and our society.

The skyway system is an incredible asset in MPLS and we have to work together to find creative ways to keep the skyways open later! I’m excited about this new digital map and am working on incentivizes for skyway access, events, signage, and targeted approaches to bottlenecks.
