Wealthy NIMBYs scamming their neighborhoods onto the National Register of Historic Places in order to prevent any building ... is the best reason to eat the rich I've come across in at least the last several minutes. https://www.wweek.com/news/city/2022/12/14/after-years-of-attempts-eastmoreland-neighborhood-makes-it-into-the-national-register-of-historic-places/

We KNOW that MOBILITY IN CITIES IS ABOUT SPACE, and we’ve seen lots of great images from global cities reinforcing the point. This one might be my favourite, from #Santiago, because it ALSO shows the fundamental inequality/inefficiency of making buses run in mixed traffic.

COVID deniers/minimizers often use the CDC's misleading Community Levels map, which is mostly green, to trick people into thinking there isn't much COVID spread (which is happening in dense population centers). This is the exact same trick that election deniers use!

HOW TO TELL CRYPTO’S A SCAM:

1. FTX crashed and it didn’t wreck the real economy even a little. Unlike, say, Lehman Brothers.
