“It's not my duty as Mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me it's the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you're going to put them.” — Mayor of Pontevedra, Spain (re-elected 6 times)

We Think We Love Driving (But We Don’t)
Studies show we overestimate how much we enjoy driving. In truth, most of us would prefer to use that time for something else.

The Kash Patel hearing is a unique opportunity to grill him on stuff but it feels like every other question from Democrats is about January 6. Maybe focus on something else?

“One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.”
“Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath

Copenhagen, the bicycle-friendliest place on the planet, publishes a biannual Bicycle Account, and buried in its pages is a rather astonishing fact.

Congestion pricing works.
“MTA Chair Janno Lieber said the reduction in traffic has allowed some of the agency’s buses to move faster than their schedules account for. Lieber said he’s considering boosting bus service as a result.”

Manhattan traffic moves way faster since congestion pricing launched, MTA says
The MTA says faster travel times should ease the pain drivers feel from the $9 toll.

We paid a significant amount for two e-cargo bikes to replace car trips for local errands. These bikes cover over 90% of our needs, reducing pollution and infrastructure wear. Yet, clean vehicle tax credits bypass options like ours, favoring the auto industry and car ownership instead.

At the Bart Lundy Basketball Show in the Gasthaus of the Union and maybe 10 non-employees here. Are they trying to get people excited for Panther Basketball? This is a good show and I hate that the crowd is so small.

SAG-AFTRA strike is on. Sandman has stopped shooting completely, along with everything else that was squeaking by without writers. I hope that the AMPTP sees reason and gets back to the table with the actors and the writers. I have no reason at this point to think they will see reason.
