Want to change the world?
Get out of your car.
That is, avoid seeing and analysing the world around you through the windscreen of your vehicle.

Human rights are everyday essentials, including our right to work, education, healthcare and community.
For disabled people, that depends on being able to get there. This Human Rights Day, we're asking for a transport system that makes our rights a reality.

Recommendation to allow bikes on footpath is a cop out. Cramping walkers and riders together is dangerous especially for mobility challenged people. Our 30kmh main st would be safer if bikes/cars shared traffic lanes. My ob is that motorists drive slower when road design does not prioritise them.
"Car speed limits should be dropped to 30km/h in city centres and bikes be allowed on footpaths, a [NSW] parliamentary report into electric bikes and scooters has recommended… [And] while fat bikes are of particular safety concern, e-bikes generally are a legitimate method of transport."

The move to drop Sydney speed limits to 30km/h and allow cyclists on footpaths
Reducing car speed limits to 30km/h and forcing e-bike riders to get insurance are among the recommendations of a months-long state parliamentary inquiry.

3 things that stood out from a 1984 reread.
1. Doublespeak etc sounded like lotta today’s corporate spin.
2. Snooping of the ‘telescreens’…how many voice activated devices are currently listening in on you? Give a shout out to the muskrats?
3. Gambling key to keeping the ‘prols’ distracted.

Um… public transit is regularly marginalised by being tacked onto networks designed to prioritise car travel. As such it is often less convenient, less connected and unsafe. Open your eyes as there are plenty of examples of good integrated design where PT is appreciated and used.
Like every transit planner, I hate cutting transit service. But sometimes we have to.
There are two ways to do it: planned cuts or random cuts.
If your leaders don't have the courage to do planned cuts, they'll get random cuts.
Here's why that's worse.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.
Opportunities are everywhere.
Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
