The entrance to the 3-storey bike parking garage at Utrecht Central holding 12,500 bicycles. It’s free for the first 24 hours, linked to the station, and used by tens of thousands every day. This is what happens when a country treats bikes as real transport infrastructure, not an afterthought.

On this day in 2003, DMB performed a historic concert at the Central Park in NYC. The show was later released as the now classic The Central Park Concert. Raise your πŸ– if you were you there! #DMBHistory

There’s a TON of evidence that bigger, higher vehicles are far more likely to kill somone they hit, crushing vital organs & pushing victims under.

But never forget, their weight, height & sightlines also make it far more likely that they’ll hit someone in the first place.

Graphic showing how vehicle front design affects pedestrian deaths.

β€œVehicles with higher, more vertical front ends pose greater risk to pedestrians. Vehicles with especially tall front ends are most dangerous to pedestrians, but a blunt profile makes medium-height vehicles deadly too.”

Deadly by design. And they know it.

Bluesky is collegial and interesting, the way Twitter used to be. Bonus: most people can spell.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions - rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking steps to make sure students can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope others follow suit.

I was early 50's when I had to use crutches for the first time. Being 6'4" and always no so graceful, that was an interesting time.
