Langebrugsteeg, Amsterdam in 1982 and today, cars removed for a bike and pedestrian only street

In 1982 it is a wide street with a central divide and car parking on both sides of it. Today it has wide footways and a bike lane in the middle of it

PSA: People on bikes aren’t swerving to annoy drivers, they’re just trying not to die or destroy their mode of transportation.
This is generally what the bike portion looks like of our “shared” roads. Glorious.

Trump to generals: "Canada called me a couple weeks ago. They want to be a part of it. To which I said, 'Well, why don't you just join our country. Become the 51st state. And you get it for free!' So I don't know if that made a big impact but it does make a lot of sense."

We regularly see Toronto prosecutors toss cases or police fail to submit disclosure where cyclists have been hit by dangerous motorists, resulting in life altering injuries. This is a travesty. An injustice. Fantastic reporting by the Star's @alyshah.bsky.social:

She was thrown under a streetcar when a car driver knocked her off her bike. Her case was withdrawn — one of thousands tossed each year by a ‘system in shambles’

The mass withdrawal of road safety-related charges has become routine, the result of an overwhelmed court system that is leaving millions in fines on the table and letting dangerous drivers off the ho...

According to the broadcast, #MLB says that there was interference on the Lowe home run, but they could not definitively determine that the ball would not have left the park regardless.

That's pretty weak, I think. #Bluejays

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

Margaret Atwood and others have called on Canada to protect its sovereignty. But is Mark Carney’s minister listening?

Canada’s government appears content to allow our digital lives to be bought and sold by an unaccountable class of foreign tech overlords. #Opinion

Margaret Atwood and others have called on Canada to protect its sovereignty. But is Mark Carney’s minister listening?

Last week, dozens of Canadian public figures wrote a letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney calling on him to do more to protect Canada from external threats.

Impotent statements like these are why Russia feels free to attack us.
This wasn’t an “incursion of drones.” Russia attacked Poland.
We shouldn’t “condemn it.” We should hit Russia with serious, damaging consequences.
We shouldn’t “call on Russia” to stop. We should stop them.

It shows how a once thriving tourism industry has been decimated in one election. The US is suffering from a lack of both International & domestic tourism. That Chipocalypse meme sent out a few days ago doesn't do anything help ramp up tourism on any level. It just makes it clearer the US is unsafe
