Yes. It's actually fairly unpleasant to walk in the United States. Cars are everywhere, forget that picturesque walk with a toddler to the neighborhood school, the air is choked with cars. There's literally nowhere besides a hiking trail or a golf course. And golf courses have gatekeepers.
“The biggest reason there aren't more walkable neighborhoods in the U.S. is that they've basically been banned … People feel they need a car, and then we mistake that as people wanting a car, when really they just didn't have an alternative.” – Ryan Johnson, Culdesac founder

Obviously @climateconnections.bsky.social, I think we do really important work (and I have the audience data to prove it). I also subscribe to @tonemadison.bsky.social & @capitalb.bsky.social
Last thing I’ll say about this for now:

What is the _actually existing publication_ that you evangelize for? That you consistently hype when they do good things, urge people to support, and are a sustaining donor or subscriber to?

This isn’t a prompt; it’s a reminder to hold yourself accountable.
