It’s been a rough few years for street safety and transit/bike advocates in NYC. Very excited for next year.

No one will ever sum up Bari Weiss's career more succinctly than "what's the point of standards"

On Veterans Day, we honor those who served and commit to serving them in return — not just in words, but in actions. Affordability and a real commitment to mental health are essential to ensure that every veteran can build a future here in New York City.

“the city we live in: Pointless enforcement of bikes, no enforcement of cars, and weak design of the bike network” @nyc.streetsblog.org nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/11/11/d...

America's political elite has decided that climate change is no longer that important or worth talking about, but rest assured, it's still happening, it's extremely bad, and yes, it is going to affect you here in America.

One thing the NYC mayoral race underscored for me is how easily the phrase "I don't feel safe" can be weaponized. It's an argument I would hesitate ever to use again, even for a good cause. I hope we can all agree that we have the right to BE safe. Maybe we should leave it at that.

Joyce Carol Oates owned Elon so hard he's spent the last day posting about movies he hasn't seen in 15 years

Northstar was doomed from the start. It should be used as a lesson in what not to do when building out commuter rail. It was half-assed from the start and in response to low ridership from half-assing it they made it worse by constantly cutting frequency, guaranteeing its demise.

Schumer & Co waiting until after election day to sell out their base is such filthy business

The Dem leadership is all going to vote no because they are trying to "keep their hands clean." We told you how ridiculous this was yesterday. prospect.org/2025/11/08/w...

Schumer isn't afraid of Dem voters. People can yell *primary* all they want as the Federal government becomes more fascist over time. There is no organized movement against the Democratic party. There's the fascists and their enablers (the Democratic party). Perhaps this would be the final straw.

basically every 2024 truism is dead. Trump did not build a lasting multiracial coalition or turn young men into committed Republicans. You don’t need to cave on trans rights to win. The pundits have nothing left to tell you.

Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani has the chance to revolutionize the city’s streetscape, as other ambitious mayors did across the globe. Here’s how nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/11/05/a...

I think a thing we'll learn tonight is that people fucking hate what is going on and they will straight ticket vote against anyone involved in starving people while pillaging the country and kidnapping their neighbors. I don't think it matters at all who that person is.

Offended by this because not only do I shop at Aldi I tell anyone who will listen how much I love Aldi

This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

Closing Indian Point has led to New York State emitting even more CO2 as climate change accelerates

after zohran has officially been elected mayor, we are going to see the media class close ranks in a way that you normally only see in uk media

what I love about e-bikes and the world of small electric mobility is that it is a full scale transportation revolution no one saw coming but that nonetheless has the power to address air pollution death & illness, climate change, traffic violence, affordability, and also social isolation & anxiety

Took Anna and Elsa to vote early for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social obvi ❄️

If you're in the Bronx, some ways to directly help people who are impacted by SNAP cuts, including a way to volunteer. mailchi.mp/8d0436e83e70...

I love this and need a few dozen

It's not that every individual driver is a murderous asshole (I'm not!). It's that car dependency as a whole is dangerous. It's that cars are deadly when they hit people. It's that our society prioritizes drivers above all else. It's about a system that is dangerous for anyone not in a car.

Good morning! Last night, Illinois’ legislature passed a law, SB2111, which will fund a major expansion of service for the Chicago region’s transit systems, thanks to new revenue sources. The law also takes a major step forward in coordination between agencies.

[email protected] has voted to approve the Kingsbridge Armory redevelopment plan for a historic $375 M investment through private and public funding and a $2.6 B economic impact. 🌟 Today's vote is deeply personal and a long-time coming. 🌟

I say this in good faith: when you primarily walk or bike as transportation you encounter motorists multiple times a day who have no regard for other people or for the responsibility of safely operating a motor vehicle. It very quickly colors your perception of motorists for the worse.

How this has always worked: Boss: you should exclude non white people from your unions Union: ok. Now can we get better pay and benefits? Boss: no i’m gonna hire the workers you excluded for have the price while you starve lol

This "Deciding To Win" study is pretty compelling, say what you will about the participants but you can't argue the stats

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice. This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

A new low for this mayoral race, maybe for NYC politics in general in a long time

We don’t actually have to spread around infographics put out by the AEI by the way, you can just ignore it

Cuomo hates New York. Mamdani loves it.

Bari Weiss' most underappreciated quality is that she is dumb.

why didn’t the left celebrate the ceasefire???!!

A controversy that can only be considered a controversy because it was entirely dreamed up and spread on X

if an assessment of the dems' problems ignores or downplays the decision to run a demented unpopular incumbent until a last minute switch forced an untested and unprepared replacement into the race OR their horrible israel policy, you can ignore the rest of the thing as nonserious

Voted early for Mamdani and got the good early voting sticker

Ignore the opinions of Ross Douthat the same way you would ignore the opinions of a contrarian 12 year old boy

declare bankruptcy, the bank eats it and sorts it out and someone will buy it at a corrected valuation. That's the risk of real estate. Why are we, as a city policy, socializing investment losses from people's bad investments?

The fact he is doing this through gritted teeth makes it all the more significant

This looks so good. My favorite part is when he shoots a guy in the leg, and then he shoots two air conditioners for some reason, and then the guy he shot in the leg is also an ally

NEW: In 11 days, Andrew Cuomo's political career will come to an end. In a last gasp for power, Cuomo has resorted to fear mongering about Zohran Mamdani. Such tactics were once used against his Italian ancestors; now, Cuomo employs them against Muslims: www.michaellange.nyc/p/the-end-of...

The best evidence that it's a Nazi dog whistle from DHS? People who post overt Nazi propaganda understand the video as a Nazi dog whistle.

DHS posted a disturbing video today featuring a song that’s popular with Nazi creators

What really stuck with me after reading “Movement” was that the politicians who worked hard to dismantle the NYC trolley system (which was still popular) in the 1930s promised that the bus system would be an upgrade over it. Then they nickel-and-dimed the buses for decades.
