Denmark responded to 1973 oil crisis by reducing car-dependency. Let's do that now. - Streetsblog Chicago "The government had to introduce car-free Sundays. And then people realized that the car-free Sunday was the best day of the week."

FYI the 1970s oil crisis was the impetus for Copenhagen turning into a cycling city

A colorful oil painting on canvas showing tall, stylized white lilies rising against a bright blue background. The flowers grow from deep purple and dark earthy tones at the bottom, with soft pink outlines and green stems. Thick, expressive brushstrokes create texture and movement, making the flowers appear as if they are emerging upward toward the sky.

Putin arranged it for Trump. That’s what Putin has on him. It’s the only thing that makes sense.

It is horriying to think that an entire generation is coming of age knowing nothing but Donald Trump and the nastiness that is our political culture. I shutter to think about what the implications of this will be for an already weakened democracy.

No, AI is not coming for your developer job, regardless of the nonsense the hype mongers are pushing. (I'm talking just about developer jobsβ€”it obviously impacts other areas.) That's not to say the layoffs aren't real, but rather that the corporations are hiding normal corporate behavior behind

I don't think a lot of Trump's voters were expecting a war. In fact, he explicitly promised them the opposite.

I really hope Spain win the World Cup. That would piss Trump off nicely.

So presumably this Daily Mail campaign against "foreign-born" voters will quickly be applied to their foreign-born star columnist, Boris Johnson, and their own France-based for tax purposes non-dom owner?

Iran's indication that they were willing to do a deal is what preempted the war. Trump and Netanyahu wanted a war and they were in danger of losing their excuse.
