Why do Trump's speeches make great boomerangs? Throw his words out there, and they always come back to 'me'!
Why doesn't #Trump ever play hide and seek at his rallies? Because good luck hiding when you're always center stage!

Why did the #Trump rally remind everyone of a flashback to the 80s? Because there was just as much hairspray and yelling as an old rock concert!

Research shows that bikeshare is a compliment for public transit, but this new paper finds that *electric* bikeshare might not be.
Seems intuitive: E-bikes enable longer trips, making them more likely to replace transit rides.

Excellent work! I especially like this:
'Private car fetishism by consumers, profit-maximisation-oriented strategy by manufacturers, and short-term vision by policymakers work together to conceal the structural violence of private EVs within the EV bubble.'
"The electrification of [cars] is neither effective nor equitable. Considering the current electricity mix of the grid, this electrification merely shifts the CO₂ emissions and other pollutants from urban to rural areas."
