Never thought I’d see BeamNG videos on cable tv before

lol these bike lanes lanes in ATX don’t accommodate trash day. still glad it’s there—it’s still usable with low volume of traffic here

ok this one actually seemed earnest though.

if the elevator is thyssen-krupp the building owner knows what's up but if otis be the accursed brand know that thee and thine are damned

stop scrolling and listen to her advice

casio made an ai rat

ok but the rule the city is pushing is for 15 mph ANYWHERE not just in bike lanes. Sorry, but nobody taking the lane with a car behind them is gonna stick to 15

Sunnysiders are so incredibly blessed to have programmed public spaces at our Subway stops

Perfection.

Gotta be H. It contains the Special Clinton District, a lot of shorter buildings south of Midtown, and a lot of IBZ+lowrise residential in Western Queens. Best transit, too.

New Haven’s fascinating parkitecture, part 2

It has net-zero energy use too! Used to be manufacturing and administrative offices for a tire company. Too bad it’s in a moat of parking

I am a parking hater but I can’t deny that New Haven has some good-looking parking structures

"You say you value free speech and oppose social penalties for bad speech, but your actions show that you don’t. You value free speech for you and people who agree with you and oppose social penalties for expressing things you agree with." I wrote that over 5 years ago. Had these figures clocked.

This site does have a problem with pile-ons and bad-faith intolerance of certain takes. But when someone uses Jamelle as their example of “Blueskyism”, the jig is up. They just feel bad about valid criticisms and feel like a victim because someone said something that makes them uncomfortable.

New York City calls itself a refuge for queer and trans Americans, but that promise is at risk if we don't take on the housing crisis head on. Read my op-ed about the need to build more housing to reduce rents, in this case, via the OneLIC project: gaycitynews.com/new-york-rem...

The thing that's really striking about the city council here is the amount of main character energy. The power balance between the mayor and council is just not that important! What actually matters is the outcome of policies that get passed in the real world.

Republicans on the Board of Elections are trying to steal your vote and raise your rent. 🚫🗳️ Here's how we can stop this illegal backroom deal:

There are real policy discussions to have around making the immigration system better (and more humane), for everyone But the problem with framing that discussion around the need to, somehow, address the "democratic backlash" to immigration, is the backlash is being driven by xenophobia and racism

In 2021, PS110 teacher Matthew Jensen was killed in a hit-and-run on McGuinness Blvd, the site of countless injuries and deaths. Led by @emilyassembly.bsky.social + Make Mcguinness Safe, Greenpointers thought they had won a street redesign — until Adams admin corruption halted work.

LET’S GOOO

There's a increasingly wide gulf between what you might call "local abundance"—which largely consists of liberal and progressive activists and local electeds trying to do YIMBY-type things—and "DC abundance," which hosts conferences where Oren Cass is a speaker for some reason.

When I share the stat that about 1 in 4 Washingtonians don’t have drivers licenses, people balk when they find out that children are included. It highlights that we don’t actually value children’s mobility. This Harris poll shows 62% of 8-12 yo have never walked or biked anywhere alone.

(1/5) Thinking about how much great music we must have lost during major human tragedies of decades past.

At this point I hope The Power Broker never comes out as an e-book because carrying around the tome is an essential part of the rite of passage

maybe he’s overburdened with mitochondrial challenges

excited to see the popularism guys come around on this!

one of the wildest bits of discourse, is the idea that we can just ban ai we cannot ban ai. code is speech and you can run these models on a 4080. there's no putting this genie back in the bottle.

At this rate everyone is gonna be subscribing to VPN services

Their memorials are history. Ours are political. Because as always, there are two sexualities - straight, and political. Two genders - male, and political. Two religions - Christian, and political. Two races - white, and political.

I prefer induction cooking personally

TBH this seems like the right kind of use-case for this kind of tooling. Having it review drafts and offer suggestions that real humans have the agency to take or leave seems fine! When people start using AI tooling to outsource their own thinking, it becomes problematic.

“The charges involving the Argento siblings are expected to relate at least in part to a strange, prolonged saga surrounding” safety improvements to deadly McGuinness Boulevard. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/20/n...

LMAO they’re in a Shake Shack

PIN THIS TWEET: - Rent control ≠ rent stablization - Neither rent control or rent stabilization have ever been means tested - Literally every apartment built before 1974 is subjected to either rent control or rent stabilization, unless it was deregulated in the 1990s I AM LOSING MY MIND

living in new york rocks because you’re not allowed to like it for some reason according to many online weirdos. “a bodega is the same thing as a gas station minimart” okay i’m literally just hanging out

Remember "facts don't care about your feelings"? Turns out that, too, was pure projection. The entire Republican governing project at the moment is devoted to addressing the baseless fears of conservative cowards.

Lemme graph what he's trying to say: P | \ AS2 = AS1 + tariff | \ /←/AS = marginal cost | \/ / ↑ | /\ / | / /\ | / / \AD: Y=MV/P ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾Output Notice that P rises. Inflation is rising P.

strange but true: while new york struggled to build the erie canal to bring western grains and produce to market, farmers flocked to chicago to put their wares on boats, where the captains would then head out into lake michigan to sail around in circles yelling "weeeeeeeee!"

Here's a map of Long Island. Guess which parts had old trolley lines or electric service on the LIRR pre-war and which parts came with the construction of the LIE. It's not a perfect rule of thumb, but it's a pretty good one.

(1/5) The whole “is sprawl bad” discourse discusses the wrong question and misses forest for the trees. In an area with high housing demand, sprawl WILL happen (yes, even with urban growth boundaries). Given that reality, there are better questions we could be asking ourselves:

Trump ❤️ Cuomo

Enough with the goddamn horses. Ban this.

also, “so woke you have walked backwards into supporting segregation” is definitely a thing online
