The sun is in my eyes... I could just buy and install blinds, or I can use my design thinking and UX tools to solve the problem creatively

I just realized the reason we have Jordan Peterson, Joe Rogan & the whole manosphere movement is b/c they're plugging the cultural hole that Red Green left behind.

If walking costs you $1, we all pay $0.01. If biking costs you $1, we all pay $0.08. If bussing costs you $1, we all pay $1.50. If driving costs you $1, we all pay $9.20. Via study that still underestimates climate cost. This isn’t about choice. It’s about who pays for your choice. #citymakingmath

“It’s not that I am trying to do social engineering around people using bikes, walking & transit. I am trying to undo the 60+ years of social engineering around the complete reliance on the automobile.” — well said @gabeklein.bsky.social. #cardependency

My semi-regular reminder of a really important reality about cities, density, services and taxes. Any questions? Recently cleaned up by @kathrynmathias.bsky.social. #CityMakingMath

Just a reminder that in 2019, RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine misinformation campaign helped cause a measles outbreak in Samoa that killed 83 people, mostly kids. Do you really want him to lead the Department of Health and Human Services?

This is also my bike origin story. I’m cheap AF.

Never forget, a 13-year study found that protected bike-lanes led to a drastic decline in fatalities for all road users. ALL ROAD USERS. And painted bike-lanes? No safety improvement at all. For sharrows, it’s actually safer to NOT have them. Via @usa.streetsblog.org @nyc.streetsblog.org

They died because they were women. Today is the 35th anniversary of the Dec. 6, 1989 Polytechnique Massacre. 14 women, most engineering students, were murdered by a misogynist gunman. December 6 is now the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. www.cbc.ca/montreal/fea...

Opposing overdose prevention centers/supervised consumption sites does not eliminate or even reduce drug use. It just eliminates or reduces safety. The alternative to safe use is not less drug use, it’s just unsafe drug use. Unsafe consumption sites exist all around you whether you know it or not.

My Christmas cards might come late this year (they always do anyway lol) and I might have to changes my Christmas shopping habits. I am okay with that because I support Canada 🇨🇦 Post.

Canada posts prices are unbeatable. If the whole system was private the businesses that use private shipping would jack up their prices or go out of business. Maybe instead of cutting Canada Post down we should be praising this subsidized service that allows small businesses to succeed.

Great post about why cities don’t need more parking in downtown areas. Regina has ample parking and yet its businesses aren’t thriving. Let’s make cities more pedestrian and cycling friendly. Let’s get people interested in exploring their communities.

Bike infrastructure is good economics on so many levels. People are healthier, the wear on roads is less, decreased parking infrastructure. The list goes on…

World Remembrance Day for victims of traffic violence: 59 ghost bikes for 59 New Zealand cyclists dead on our roads in the past 5 years. Slower speeds would most certainly have made a difference. 🚲

My 8 year old decided he wanted to go pick up litter in the neighbourhood. I took the dog and joined him on a walk. He was having a blast picking up garbage, while simultaneously muttering how upset he is that people litter🥹, until… He stepped into some tall grass and the dog peed on his leg. 🫤

Apparently despite being in Poilievre’s platform the collapse of Canadian media after being defunded is a “huge hypothetical” to this Conservative pundit. To me it’s a scary probability.

Thank god we killed bin Laden. At this point, it feels like Trump might appoint him to lead the national counterterrorism center if not.
