In many ways it's fitting that the showdown between monarchy and democracy ends up being over NYC congestion pricing. Cities are where the power of kings were first challenged, and few things are more fundamental to government than control of public space. The cameras are staying on!

one thing that really infuriates me about Gen Z is their constant use of acronyms and niche slang, often assuming everyone understands what they mean. i see it all the time on tiktok and ofc the top search on the comments is the acronym/phrase

@npr.org Hey NPR, TikTok seems to be increasing censorship ahead of Trump’s inauguration. I can’t go live anymore, and some users report that comments criticizing Trump require approval. Even simple phrases like “free Luigi” are being removed. Here’s a screenshot showing what’s happening.

Climate change is real, if it weren’t, insurance companies wouldn’t be pulling out. They’ve studied the data and made smart business decisions. Meanwhile, Republicans waste time attacking LGBT rights instead of addressing the crisis, leaving us to deal with the consequences. ✅

Conservatives on Twitter are desperately trying to spin the narrative that LA Democrats have neglected their fire departments. We're facing record-breaking drought and hurricane-force winds. No amount of 'readiness' can prepare for this level of climate change catastrophe.

This IS the Republican playbook. Take something so minuscule and make it controversial, meanwhile the whole country argues, the politicians set laws to enrich themselves. Divide and conquer.

The modern obsession with 'celebrating life' instead of mourning the dead is utterly disgusting. Funerals are for grieving, not partying. I don't want to be remembered with Martha throwing up in the backyard from too many patron shots while I'm six feet under. It's disrespectful af

It’s funny how one homicide on the NYC subway has everyone yelling about how dangerous public transit is, yet when a vehicle causes mass casualties at an open streets event, nobody’s talking about how dangerous cars are.

My average walking step length according to Apple Health is 2.55 ft. I then asked Siri how many steps did I take last year. With that into and my annual steps, I walked a distance of 1,442 miles or 2,321 km

It’s actually insane that a bus fare is more expensive at $2.50 given the fact that buses mainly serve the financially constrained demographic. Perfect example of how the rich influences fiscal policy to their favor.

It’s frustrating that, throughout history, there have always been immigrants who benefit from progressive policies only to turn around and betray liberal politicians, siding with conservatives and embracing harmful ideologies like xenophobia, homophobia, and misogyny. It’s an exhausting cycle.

In all seriousness this is bad news for walkable cities. Since it’s clear elites control the government they’re going to refuse to allow cars to be banned, because they want ultimate protection now. Meaning everyone is going to have to pay the price for shitty transit to protect the 1%

Donald Trump's cabinet is the wealthiest in history with at least 6 billionaires. Do tell me how MAGA is the "anti-elite" party of the "working class." 🙄
