Folks are terrified of the NYC subway, think DC is a gang ridden hellscape and have other often irrational fears, but here's the truth, other than disease or an abusive partner with a gun, you're most likely to be killed by a reckless driver, and we barely acknowledge it's a problem.

refusing to consume AI slop by definition could not have any effect on the amount of art i see in the future. this is like saying that refusing to chew styrofoam means i will not get to eat many lima beans in the future. if it is styrofoam, then it is not a lima bean.

My least popular (and most correct) view is that cars should be automatically limited to the local speed limit. Put the pedal to the floor and you still can't go over 25mph in a residential area.

There is no possible justification for limiting e-bikes to 15mph but not cars.

apropos of nothing: my favourite biking statistic is from the 18 year scottish longitudinal study which found that over the study period, compared to non-active commuters (ie cars and transit), cyclist commuters were half as likely to die for any reason.

Só até novembro de 2024 a cidade de São Paulo ultrapassou a marca de 1000 mortes acumuladas no trânsito - 1009 exatamente.
E ainda tem dezembro.
Esse número não era tão grande desde 2015.
É um aumento sem precedentes na história recente.
O responsável, Ricardo Nunes, foi reeleito com tranquilidade.

One of my long held theories is that a bike actually provides the freedom of movement and exhilaration that a car promises in a city at a fraction of the cost and the dissonance there drives the people in cars *completely fucking insane*
every commenter on the internet who complains about bike lanes once saw a cyclist pedal through a red light and now uses it as justification for why they should be allowed to run over anyone else on the road
