Skeeting from the edge of life-saving infectious diseases research. Here for science, but will shamelessly repost advocacy for safe sustainable systems and practices- #bancars https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z99ajcyaeyo
Fun fact: My proposed headline for this one was "The Road Safety Metric That Needs to Die."
I'm really, really tired of traffic engineers sealioning about US crash deaths being (slightly) less horrific if you divide them by VMT instead of population.
Cities will never be compatible with the car. You can change their design, their fuel source, and their model names, but their problems still remain.
The future of mobility is human-scaled and it's already here.
They had names. They had beautiful faces. And they had the same dreams as your kids - crushed when American "precision" bombs slammed into their Minab elementary school, killing 175
Don't blame AI for this. Blame the sick humans who see war as a game

Weird that Izoita is the one with the least coaching from him.
mmmmm. ok
Not really attacking as a team, not defending as team when it matters. Shape falls apart under pressure. Isolated and stranded. #RCTID
This post reveals a very sloppy approach to legislating. I don't think you have made a reasonable effort to understand the issue that you are trying to address.
This is a horrible idea.
To Trump? Yes. Yes you do.
What Lionel Messi's arrival in Baltimore really sounded like 🔉🆙
Crank the volume up for the full experience. DC United moved their game vs. Messi's Inter Miami to Baltimore's M&T Bank Stadium, home of the Ravens, so more people could attend 😯

When multiple companies have driverless cars on the road, they will compete by "time to pick up," which will incentivize them to deploy as many empty cars as possible. They will lobby for anti-pedestrian laws and penalties, and they will fight for every inch of road and tax dollar. Easily ≥ 100% VMT
The lack of media coverage about the bombing of the girls elementary schools is shocking.
Russian oil?
Too bad we got rid of the DoD.
New meta-analysis of 26 published studies concludes that AVs will lead people to use cars a lot more — which would thicken congestion and worsen pollution (even if AVs are electric).
"AV deployment is anticipated to lead to an overall increase in Vehicle Miles Traveled."

Too many people have been scared, injured, and killed by truck drivers in the Central City over the years. There's no reason for big trucks and vans to make last mile deliveries - not just for safety, but environmental and system maintenance reasons as well. Hoping PBOT permits these things soon.
Rubin: "There is at least one witness for whom 3 interviews with the FBI in in 2019 are missing [from the Epstein files]. What's the big deal? We can also confirm she is the same person who in a 2025 FBI presentation is identified as accusing Trump of a sexual assault when she was between 13 and 15"
“If you think AI is bad, have you seen humans?” should not be an applause line.
Counterpoint: No.
ICE doesn’t need reform. Abolition and prosecution is the bare minimum.
So she can shoot people?
Would anyone be surprised if the Epstein files revealed that Trump dabbled in cannibalism?
Maybe she should have said how much she likes beer to pull off a full Kavanaugh.
This is regulatory failure. Blame NHTSA and Congress.
Tesla never should've been allowed to sell driver assistance systems misleadingly called Autopilot or Full-Self Driving. Of course people got confused!
Competitors like Ford would be far more cautious Tesla had paid a price for its deception.
I guess we're doing this without the hotdog costume now!?
Thanks for reporting on this in depth. I am waiting for the breathless Oregonian piece on how all of our problems will be solved by robot taxis, and anyone who says otherwise is a luddite freak.
New York Times headline: Libertarians: We Told You So With an image of a big black boot stomping a snake
this is a subject that's near and dear to my heart
1. no you didn't, you retconning fucks
2. your decades of anti-governance "free market" "government never functions" propaganda paved the way for the complete authoritarian decimation of labor, consumer, environmental protections
Reminiscent of his previous self-serving, harmful opportunism. 🐍
Maybe he can pull out the stethoscope and remind us he is a nurse again for damage control.
MAGA hates seeing other people happy.
U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.
Demand that FIFA retract the first FIFA Peace Prize from Donald Trump as a part of its "Global Stand Against Racism."
