It likes to pretend to be a purely technical discipline, but traffic engineering is deeply political. Don't be fooled! (graphic by @copenhagenizers)

The stark differences in city planning philosophy: @CityOfCarmelIn: Bike path, raised crosswalk, beautiful, close, inviting. Opened 2024. @CityofReno: 8ft tall 2000-ft long prison fence, narrow sidewalk, "NO TRESSPASSING" signs, foreboding, unwelcoming presence. Opened 2024.

@elonmusk @DOGE Everyone supports doge, the idea is great. Everyone agrees to cut frivolous spending, and reduce waste. Where people are fighting you is how it's being done.

It's crazy that just because I ask a simple question, all the TERFs and MAGAs come out of the woodwork, assuming my position on the matter. Boy, are they barking up the wrong tree!

What insidious times in which we live. People can now once again be investigated and surveilled by the FBI solely for being gay. This feels like... like the last 40 years of progress has suddenly flushed down the drain.

The DHS quietly updated its policy manual earlier this month, removing LGBTQ+ identities from the section prohibiting surveillance based solely on immutable characteristics.

Here's a quick hour-long sketch to convert Plumb & McCarran into a roundabout with shared-use paths the way the rest of Caughlin Ranch is. Very easy to do, copying Carmel, Indiana: https://t.co/fFSsdtEO6E @MayorSchieve @AlbrightLCB @PlanItReno @UNRBikes @votereese @NaomiDuerr

Reno Mayor Hillary Schieve said she wants to annex McCarran Blvd. into the city's jurisdiction after a rash of deadly crashes including several near the intersection with Plumb Lane. @BenMargiott has the story.

@realDonaldTrump @POTUS, you said yesterday that you ended the War on Crypto. Please consider releasing my husband, Ian Freeman, who is a hostage from that war. He is in prison for 8 years for selling Bitcoin. Here you see the judge who oversaw his trial and sentenced him Clearly

Doug Burgum knows zoning reform is as much a MAGA movement as anyone else's. "And then people will go on a vacation, and they'll say, 'Wow, that was the most amazing vacation I ever had.' Why? Well, because they went to some place where they could walk, and everything was right
