Uber, Lyft and now Waymo are all responsible for the decline in public transportation ridership.

Philadelphians! I want to interview Center City residents who live in the newer apartments that have been built over the last six years.

If you fit that description, or know someone who does, lets talk. I essentially want to hear about what kind of work you do, your commute and if you own a car.

Cool, guess we know what Musk did with that data he pilfered from the feddle gubmint.

Good grief, people, delete those accounts.
NEW: Elon Musk's Grok chatbot will, with minimal prompting, provide residential addresses of everyday Americans.

Prompts as simple as "[name] address" immediately returned accurate home addresses of private citizens — alongside other personal info we didn't ask for.

If tiny cars are too dangerous to be allowed on our streets, think of how it feels to be a pedestrian or cyclist!
Unlike Europe and Asia, NHTSA & Congress have failed to create a regulatory category for minicars. Because they flunk US safety rules for full-sized cars, they’re effectively illegal to sell.

Only “collectable” minicars cars 25+ years old can be legally sold (and they’re quite popular).
What Do US Vehicle Regulators Have Against Tiny Cars?
Super-small urban vehicles have found a place in European and Asian cities. But in the US, federal and state rulemakers seem determined to keep minicars at bay.

Nothing is more ironic than the fact that the party that trumpets itself as defending a "Culture of Life" is actively working to kill as many people as it can.
If new proposals detailed in an FDA memo are put into place, experts told me it would mean the end of annual flu shots. And end of most vaccines for pregnant people. And maybe the end of updates to pneumonia vaccines. And more.

Kyle, I’m so broke anymore, I can’t pay attention
Wait you aren't rich and can easily afford to buy anything since he got back into office?
December 2, 2025 at 7:37 PM
Look, I try to avoid politics on here.
But what about affordability can possibly be called a hoax?
Q: You talk about affordability. Are the American people getting impatient with the reforms you're making?

TRUMP: I think they're getting fake news from guys like you. Look, affordability is a hoax that was started by Democrats.
