it's so funny that no police budget on earth has prayer of containing Philly after a Superbowl win

Josh Kraft outlined his policy proposals, and they include (1) increasing the number of deaths in the city and (2) cutting taxes for large property owners.

Emptying a bin in the Netherlands. Having these large bins on residential streets ensures there is no "bin day", residents are free to put their rubbish out whenever they please, which leads to less litter in the street. A sensor tells the local authority when it's full, meaning fewer truck journeys

Boston is the 1st city in the country to embed net zero carbon emissions standards into our zoning code. 👏 to climate advocates & forward-looking developers supporting our greenest, healthiest future.

hello, my name is sam altman with an important transmission. you may be familiar with my product, mega-plagiarizer 9000. i have compelling evidence that the chinese have plagiarized the mega-plagiarizer 9000 in creating their rival mega-plagiarizer. this is unacceptable and will teach me nothing

Would anyone build parking if it wasn’t legally mandated? I sort of think they would. So why do some people think arbitrary minimums are in the public interest?

I luckily got to visit the Milwaukee Road Pacific Extension So cool, but incredibly sad to see some of the catenary poles for electrification still standing, reminding us of what could have been

You like apples? Well this is how many times I've listened to Fetch the Boltcutters. How about Fiona Apple?

having succeeded in purchasing positions of influence inside the White House, the billionaires and tech VCs have now set their sights back on Wikipedia

We couldn’t build the places we fight so hard to protect. Made up of a mix of single-family & multi-family buildings, Salem’s historic Chestnut Street dates back to the 1800s and sits in a protected historic district. Nearly every lot substantially violates current zoning.

This is fantastic. We need all cities to do this. Don't we all want clean air and a livable planet?

these people really are the biggest piss babies on the planet

the two things I believe most strongly in this world are that public services should be wholly replaced by the private sector and that the government should intervene instantly the second I personally feel a little bit scared

One of these is the rugged, do-everything #EV of the future. The other is eligible for climate subsidies

“It’s a slap in the face. And frankly, it’s just another reason for folks to say, ‘Wow, Milton really doesn’t want affordable housing or care about anybody that can’t afford to live there.’ I’m starting to feel that way, too.” www.bostonglobe.com/2024/12/25/b...

incredibly difficult week for me, a guy who loves funding government programs but hates kids with cancer

A white guy saw a non-white person, followed him to a stoplight and began harassing him about Trump, followed him to his work and continued the harassment, then when the victim tried to run inside, he tackled him and started choking him, and was only stopped by others running out to save him.

This is the one time I can't dunk on the ravens

I appreciate the warning and will make haste

Soft costs are such a systemic problem in all of North America that the FTA literally tells project applicant to expect up to 43% of total budget in soft costs (professional services/contingency) railroads.dot.gov/sites/fra.do...

Better than before but it's a little absurd that NYC can't seem to get rid of minimum parking mandates while cities like Minneapolis and St. Paul, which are not notoriously the most walkable or transit-rich, did pretty easily, years ago.

The Boston City Council has twice overwhelmingly passed two home rule petitions, the last with a near unanimous 12-1 vote. These home rule petitions were both sent to the State House to provide tax relief for our residents and protect small businesses.

That is a record high for Amtrak ridership, besting the last record set in 2019 with 32 million riders.

It’s VERY important that #Vancouver’s Downtown Business Association, who were originally against downtown bike-lanes, are now among their most vigourous supporters, because of the evidence that they are better for downtown business than any street parking they replaced. Bike-lanes mean business.

BOS actually has a pretty solid transit connection with the blue line / Silver line. Other good US airport connections: ORD via the Blue Line, CLE via the Red Line, PHL via the airport line, JFK via the Air train -> E line ... Any other good ones I'm missing?

life is a highway I’m going to add lanes to it to relieve congestion and it’s not going to work

It's called cryptocurrency, but new FDIC data shows that most Americans don't use it as currency—they mainly hold on to it for price gains, not for transfers or purchases. www.fdic.gov/household-su...

Damn and now Drake is going to have to pay a 25 percent tariff on that beef?

If it doesn’t exist on this app, someone should make a thread of all the European plazas that used to be filled with parked cars

@el-p.bsky.social when are we going to get RTJ and Kendrick in a gnx together?

learning that Oprah's real name is Orpah is one of those wedge factoids that will permanently destroy your ability to speak normally about her ever again. it alters your brain chemistry. "Do you mean Orpah?" you'll say, every time. if you're reading this it's already too late
