Trigger warning. “In crashes, SUVs are more likely to strike vital organs in the core of adults’ bodies & heads of children. Hitting pedestrians above their center of gravity means they’re more likely to be knocked forward & down and then be driven over.” Plus more likely to hit in the 1st place.
Way to go Norway 🇳🇴 🫶🏼✊🏼💙💟☮️
6. “Elections are won from the centre” is a mantra used to try to block challenges from the left. It says “you can’t win if you want to change the system”. It ignores the fact that first the neoliberals and now the far right have completely transformed – in some respects replaced - the system.
If the Israelis lay down their arms, a genocide ends immediately. If Hamas lays down their arms, Israel’s planned ethnic cleansing of Gaza happens quickly and without resistance.
A man on the streets of the UK is asked about the “problem of immigration” and dismantles talking points with ease.
Anathema. There are few people worse than these people.
I’m with @brenttoderian.bsky.social in wanting to boost Bluesky as a platform for great urbanism conversations, just as Twitter used to be before it got Musked. So if you’re interested in cities, I’d encourage you to use this platform for these conversations!
Nobel Prize worthy 🔥👏🏽🙌🏽 www.instagram.com/reel/DOC7KBw...
MY FIRST OG STARTER PACK on cities, urbanism and better city-building! Some excellent folks have joined since I first filled this one up, but everyone here is still worth following & have been part of growing the community here on @bsky.app! Please check it out & share with your audiences. Thanks!
The fascist will complain when you tell them to fuck off. They will say you are being disrespectful. They will do these things regardless of how you treat them, so you treat them like the worthless pathetic losers they are.
Big congrats @zackpolanski.bsky.social - really gracious in victory & hugely ambitious for party. As he said in his acceptance speech, the Greens aren’t here to be disappointed by Labour - we’re here to replace them & to challenge power & wealth in this country. Join us! join.greenparty.org.uk

Dear liberals - please read.
Worse still are the people who fight pedestrianization because they want to preserve their ability to drive THROUGH a place over the ability of others to be IN a place
#HandsOffVenezuela Is Venezuela ‘Flooding’ the US With Drugs? According to the latest UN World Drug Report, Venezuela is neither a major drug producer nor a key trafficking corridor to the US, effectively debunking the "narco-state" narrative promoted by the Trump admin. Via venezuelanalysis.com
The stupidity of right wingers knows no bounds
Oh, absolutely. The fact that it works at such a scale is unsettling. Same thing with the "accuse your enemies of what you're actually doing" move. It's such obvious BS, yet evidently works on a lot of people.
I get that it’s not a bug, it’s a feature, but goddamn I am still going to be extremely pissed off that the feature *works*. It makes me think “holy fuck a whole lot of my fellow American is *extremely fucking stupid*, so fucking gullible and stupid that we fucking deserve this hell.”
I liked Chicago back in the day. What stops me returning? The moron in charge of the US currently.
It's not too late to make a difference! This school year I'm starting a bike bus with a few other families who live nearby, hoping to coordinate more soon.
“As Israel continues its genocidal war against the people of Gaza, we will not forget that Boeing is among the largest manufacturers of munitions and military equipment to the IDF, including F-15 Fighter Jets and Apache Attack Helicopters.”
A fortuneteller says: “You will die on a national holiday.” The tyrant asks: “How do you know?”

In our new book, we highlight the groundbreaking work of female mayors, planners, and policymakers in reshaping cities for the better. From Paris to Montreal, these leaders are reclaiming streets, reimagining mobility, and redesigning public spaces. PRE-ORDER: www.modacitylife.com/women-changi...
This is real
Turkiye says that it will completely sever economic and trade ties with Israel and has closed its airspace to its aircraft, amid tensions over Israel's war on Gaza. Turkish FM Hakan Fidan said that Israel’s aggressive policies threatened to engulf the region in conflict.
Lots of right-wing political pastors and charlatans about to get rich from FEMA money.
Hey Schumer you useless pile of shit, Noem should be forced to testify in front of Congress about the criminal threats she’s referring to.
Yes. They ache to control.
Who needs gun control, we just need to build forts to worship in. This Jesus doesn’t turn the cheek, he shoots back. We are the land of the free, godamnit.

The time for such cynical collusion and evasion from governments, including that of the UK, was over before the genocide in Gaza even began, but the IPC iron-clad declaration of famine strips them of whatever remained of any excuses morningstaronline.co.uk/article/neta...

📢 On 26 August in #Brussels we will honour the 200+ journalists killed in #Gaza and demand: Israel, stop killing journalists! A public reading of all journalists killed in Gaza will pay tribute to their courage, condemn their murder and call for justice. Join us!
We will celebrate trumps death, may it come soon

Final. He has done something good. Shop lifters of the world, come together and raid Walmart.
We need a movement of small-scale, artisanal/craft knowledge production and consumption that absolutely rejects the pitiful slop of today's mass culture: the AI hallucinated slop articles, the brainless slop of bro-podcasts, the bot-driven AI slop that dominates twitter. Enough!!
Israel is in charge of the UK. Does Israel also own the US?
Rise.
What about this fat fuck sitting telling make-believe stories while all these sycophants stand.
“Protest beyond the law is not a departure from democracy; it is absolutely essential to it.” Howard Zinn was born August 24, 1922 in Brooklyn
Glad that mainstream news is starting to be a little more aggressive about connecting the dots and recognizing white supremacy in this administration. But phrases like "right-wing activists" still hide the ball. This is a story about the White House welcoming open Nazis and antisemites. Say that.
Actual human communication is dramatically more complicated that. Democrats have, without exaggeration, driven American democracy into a wall by outsourcing their brains to this class of hucksters, who pretend to insight but who have never successfully changed the public narrative on anything.
It is illegal for ICE to arrest citizens Of course, ICE gets around this by 1) claiming the person obstructed their operations, and/or MOST IMPORTANTLY 2) not allow Due Process, so that citizenship is never determined, & just assumed by ICE to be non-existent Then they disappear you FASCISM !
Dummy
WATCH & SHARE: This is very good. A prominent youtuber is actually giddy (but also very thorough in covering the joys, advantages, issues and challenges) about how trying biking for transportation in London has changed his life. Easy to watch & more convincing probably than 99% of public campaigns.
Not baffling at all. They do not work for their constituents they are owned by big business. They are traitors, it is how they climb the ladder in this system. Broken system must be smashed. Strong candidates like Mamdani can help to dismantle this corruption and build something other.
If the fossil fuel industry didn’t have our president and corporate America by the throat, we could have nice things like this too.

A great review from this reader. Succinct, to the point and unforgiving, just like my book. If you haven’t read THE UNHAPPINESS MACHINE yet, put it on your list!

Being a centrist on the issue of genocide and acting like it's the respectable position is truly insane
Trump’s attack on American cities (Jnr has slammed them as “crapholes”) is often portrayed as a battle for the “real” America and a fight to save for the majority. How true is that? Rural population of US is just 14% of total. ers.usda.gov/sites/defaul...

As Republi-fascists reach new heights of depravity – taking the Nov 5 call to the Texas Capitol
Cheers to the people of DC! Take inspiration from this, growing a culture of noncompliance with the Trump fascist regime, building toward tens of thousands flooding DC beginning November 5 to drive this regime out of power with unrelenting nonviolent protest demanding Trump Must Go Now!
🇺🇸 National Guard soldier speaks out: “I swore an oath to defend our constitution… seeking refuge is not an act of violence. Locking people up for it is.”
Israel is stealing money from Americans to fund their ethno supremacist land theft and Congress is totally complicit. Capitalists always spend everyone else’s money & that’s why there’s so much poverty because we can’t take care of ourselves when Israel is robbing us. www.threads.com/@carolineann...

The future should rule, not suck, to live in
Everything tested on the Palestinians is coming home. Just wait until these drones have weapons on them like in Gaza.
Fuck Israel. Which side are you on! The future will judge us.
The purge continues. This is going to create a lot of distrust as folks will suspect that any generals and admirals left and especially those promoted since Pete the Freak became SecDef are Trumpers. A lot of talent going out the door and a lot of cohesion being destroyed. So much lethality.
