The cost of a single Patriot missile would cover all my living expenses comfortably and with money to spare for 400 years.

Here's to a future where budgeting for missiles is forever banished to the context of sci-fi.

NJ's new restrictions on e-bikes are raising serious concerns for riders across the state. We joined @bikejc.org on @biketalk.bsky.social to unpack what the law does, the situation that led us here, and where we go next.

Don't miss the end where we share some hopeful news on #Hoboken Vision Zero!

The bikes-for-transportation community is absolutely charging their cameras to capture video riding past the forthcoming gas station lines.

while everyone’s wishcasting into the unknown:
bring back the 55mph limit

Amazon seems to only have copies starting at $50. Barnes and Noble is $29

welcome to eastern time with all its delights! don't forget to put your clocks forward another hour tonight

do you think a guy at the CIA ever played off his eye makeup as spyliner?

This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.

100,000 Homes: Housing the homeless saves money? Giving apartments to the chronically homeless can save taxpayer dollars, advocates say

Anderson Cooper: “So it's more expensive to have a chronically homeless person living on the streets than it is to actually subsidize an apartment for them?”

Answer: “Yes, we’re paying more as taxpayers to walk past that person on the street and do nothing.” #HousingFirst #UrbanTruth

$3.7 Billion: Estimated Cost of Epic Fury’s First 100 Hours Operation Epic Fury costs nearly $900 million per day, driven by the large expenditure of munitions. Because most of this is not in the budget, the Pentagon will soon need to ask for more money.

Never forget that the U.S. can always find money for war, but not for education, health care, or to help those in need. This is 100% a choice. And it is 100% the wrong one. www.csis.org/analysis/37-...

The Netherlands is flat and has bike infrastructure that kids can ride independently on safely. They also have way more transit coverage & more density in cities, which makes the need to bike on both ends of the trip less of a requisit.

Queens is the Chicago of the East Coast

2008 -> sensible family car pipeline

Study: How Car Ownership is Keeping Americans From Financial Stability — Streetsblog USA As car costs continue to surge, American drivers are taking drastic measures to stay on the road — with troubling societal implications.

Don't let a bunch of oil barons, conspiracy theorists and murderers have the leverage to hold your family hostage and demand you tithe to their false gods:

As a person who lives car-free, the effect this has on me is negligible.

And I hope this spurs more people to demand walkable, bikable, transit-friendly places to live. Fossil fuels have always been a threat to national security and our pocketbooks

We could do $12,000 every year, or better yet, $1,000 every month (or better yet $1,300/mo per person instead of per household of four). And we could do it for everyone instead of only households under $150,000 in annual income and call it universal basic income instead of direct payments.

Nuremberg 1.0 - at the setting of the largest Nazi rally: Nuremburg

Nuremberg 2.0 - at the setting of the largest MAGA rally: Wildwood, NJ

Thinking of the criminals being hung from Morey's Piers.

i spent all summer organizing for dedicated transit lanes against typical toronto nimbys who claimed that "emergency vehicles would get stuck in traffic and more people would die"

anyways, here's real life:

The tshirt shop owners are gonna eat good on Nuremberg 2.0.

No, Mar A Largo

"Wildwood" is like 100x cooler as a name for "place we put fascists on trial" so we are obligated to host it there

exactly that
