If you think Amsterdam managed to avoid being overrun by cars, you’re wrong.

They also surrendered their streets to cars for many decades.

But the people fought back, and forced leaders to see their mistake.

There's nothing magical about #Amsterdam.

They just saw their mistake, and changed it.

Even Hellsite has its moments. 👏🏼

NEW PAPER! I am really so excited the share this brand new paper led by @abifiske.bsky.social. Despite pandemic challenges, we assessed inhibitory control and its neural substrate (using fNIRS) from 10 months to 3.5 years in more than 100 children. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150,000 trees have been planted and 45 hectares of parks created in the city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to and manage summer heatwaves of 50℃ (122F) by 2050.

Plant a lot more urban trees.

Getting older doesn’t mean losing joy. It means redefining it.

The Netherlands 🇳🇱 and its people showed me how urbanism and active transportation can transform life. When possible, choosing movement, walking or cycling, turns even the most mundane tasks into something enriching.

Trudeau: He has said repeatedly, what he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy. Because that will make it easier to annex us. First of all, that's never going to happen. We will never be the 51st state.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

JPMORGAN: “.. Trump seems inclined to impose hefty tariffs .. upending three decades of free trade. .

“.. a nearly 5% tumble in US equity prices in just the past two weeks does not seem to have tempered the administration’s tariff goals. The risk of our ‘extreme US policies’ scenario have risen.” 🇺🇸

Trudeau: "Every country is very aware that if the American government is willing to do this to their own closest ally, neighbor, and friend, everyone is vulnerable to a trade war."

Maybe, just maybe, Americans don’t need to be paid money to hold political leaders accountable for bad policy decisions.

Who knew the difference a staircase makes? US requirements that multifamily buildings have more than one staircase damages cities. Amidst calls for reform, CNU Mid-Atlantic is offering a prize for the best single-stair building design for Baltimore.

This is an opinion piece that evidently meets Jeff Bezos' new test for supporting "personal liberties and free markets."

Support pro-democracy independent media.

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

No matter what happened in the Oval Office, I am proud to be a Ukranian American. Today and everyday.

Watching Trump lose his cool is quite a thing.
