A homeless shelter you can only drive to? I investigate and get into trouble. https://t.co/tzy092eBjn @Car_Free_USA @Boenau @RM_Transit @humantransit @betterDCregion @CityLab @clmarohn @berkie1 @alpert @UriahKiser @InsideNoVA @jahorne @Streetfilms

No way to reach this new homeless shelter except by car. I walked the route anyway. Read my piece out today in @ggwash:

@TommyYesItsMe @CompletedStreet I heard on the War On Cars podcast that it should not be called 'parking' but instead 'car storage'

The real libertarian case for bikes is strong, novel, and completely unused — so unused that the Washington Post picked it up. My column, published today in print. @JoshInEncinitasb @Boenau @AventonBikes @WAbikes @pfbpolicy @ebikesinternatl @NickDeshais

@TimHendersonSL @jraindc @clmarohn It is possible that I am more attracted to this idea because I just don't like the idea that since covid everyone is worse, that the popular nihilistic believe that society is spiraling inexorably down with everyone increasingly awful is true. I don't want to believe it.

@TimHendersonSL This details an explanation for increased traffic death I find convincing(and was not mentioned in your article) https://t.co/uqkaq7h9KD

[Kevin Parker @Parker_]

@TimHendersonSL @jraindc @clmarohn Ok so the argument is because of less driving during covid and less concentrated peak driving because of work from home folks are more often driving faster on wide roads. It was already a problem but the change to less congestion made it more deadly. That's the suddenly part.

[Kevin Parker @Parker_]

@TimHendersonSL @jraindc Btw I read your piece when it appeared in the Prince William Times (just in case you are curious to know)

[Kevin Parker @Parker_]

@TimHendersonSL @jraindc There is an short different explanation. https://t.co/XuZJ3JKKPB
I think that this could be argued either way but it does deserve to be in the mix in an article where the lawmakers are sad to be puzzled.

@redpillb0t "for most of you that don't know Antarctica is on a mountaintop" this dude seems very confused

@nealasher This article mentions what is known for sure to be killing whales That's collisions Collisions are likely to finish off the last few hundred northern right whales. The answer is for ships to slow down. Wind industry ships and freight ships should slow down to save whales.

Listened to Mountain in the Sea by Ray Nayler @raynayler Loved this book! Up my ally w/my interest in nature and AI. Also while reading I thought "what if the evil AI slave ship was only fictional about the AI" Then I read news about actual modern slave ships..for cat food! wtf

@saucy_sin @karishma__m__ If you read the article you will understand it is not just about twitter but also censorship of google and facebook/meta among other tech companies.
