Whenever I talk to my real estate agent I feel like I'm talking to the wallet inspector

An electorate of dull, incurious chuds

It's also such a stupid and outdated culture war reference. He may as well be railing against political correctness or women's lib. It's a bullshit strawman pulled straight from the 90s

NYC has demonstrated conclusively (again) that congestion pricing is THE way to "solve" mobility in a dense urban environment.

You're going to get the same fight on small things that you will on transformational things. Light your powder on transformational things.

From the toronto community on Reddit: No single ‘magic bullet’ will fix Toronto’s gridlock, new congestion officer says Explore this post and more from the toronto community

Toronto's new traffic czar has one job: build the political coalition that will get congestion pricing passed long enough for everyone to realize how much they can't live without it. That's it. Time spent on tinkering is time wasted

Small above and below ground sections at either end, but mostly at grade in a dedicated transit median along a stroad

It promises slower transit, actually

Professor Know-It-All is such a good name for an AI chatbot that I'm having a hard time believing none of these nerds have come to it yet

Did SportNet+ just crash in the middle of the fucking World Series?

American Chopper argument meme mustache guy: We're automatically enforcing safe speeds in school zones hat guy: It's unfair to fine me for speeding outside school hours m: The signs are really clear. You don't have to break the speed limit h: We've been conditioned to drive fast. Everyone drives faster than the limit! m: That's why we're enforcing it

Repeat this over and over. Doug Ford will kill people.

We'll do anything to support our children, unless we can save a bit of money. If that's the case, we'll do that instead

John Street Corridor Improvements The City of Toronto is working to transform John Street into a cultural corridor by redesigning the streetscape between Front Street and Stephanie Street. The John Street Corridor Improvements project...

We have spent 13 years trying to figure out how to resurface 800 metres of John Street, and the obvious answer (it should be pedestrianized) isn't even on the table.

A construction timeline has yet to be announced.

Two true things about Toronto's graduation into its cycling adolescence:

1. It is not reasonable to expect that you can travel everywhere as fast as you can without any regard for what is happening around you

2. There is a speed at which cycling on the sidewalk is safer/preferred

"Lose Yourself" from 8 Mile still goes incredibly hard

Authors will save the world. Always this, and ever shall be.

Ontario's provincial parliament is smack dab in the middle of downtown Toronto and it absolutely hates urban Toronto

I was in a bikejam on College this morning that was so long I missed an entire green light cycle. Maybe this is the common ground riders and drivers can finally land on?

It's wild to have that many skyscrapers and no urbanism

💀

What is this worth to you, Toronto? You wanna whine about a “tax grab?” Or you wanna celebrate a public safety measure that saves people’s lives, including children’s?

Has anybody else noticed a precipitous decline in bike parking recently, especially along major routes that have been recently rebuilt (even when the rebuild installed bike lanes)?

I know more people are riding, but it also feels like there are just many fewer places to park.

This is the face you make when you've been told your entire life you've never had a bad idea and then you realize the only idea you've ever had is the worst one

A marker of many great cities is that their residents are all assholes. Toronto is really growing into its own on this, but whereas it's essential in places like New York and London, in Toronto it's insufferable because it's not undergirded by an equally intense pride in the city

You're being a real silly billy

1. You were responding to a post advocating for more and better cycling infrastructure, the construction of which keeps cyclists out of traffic.
2. You noted the "wear and tear" of cycling as unsustainable, which seems very distinct from immediate concerns for the safety of cycling in mixed traffic.

There are a million dumb reasons to oppose cycling, but "exercise is bad for you, actually" surely takes the cake

I am pleased to hear this announcement

It's not an excuse for not releasing it, it's an admission that it's going to be leaked and Trump is in there and this is the foundation of his cover when that happens

Make this fucking imbecile answer questions about this for the rest of his life
