Unreal aerial shot of downtown Salt Lake in 1936.
This photo captures the city in its last years as a thoroughly walkable, transit-oriented urban center.

Republicans are so flabbergasted over their inability to connect with young voters it’s almost comical. You wanna know why they hate you and upwards of 90% of them will never vote for you @GOP? I’ll break it down for you (Thread)

A high speed rail system like this could easily be built within the next 10 years if there was the political will. Instead it seems like the American government is focused on building electric charging stations along highways...

I keep doing a quick mental audit and being, like "Why do I have this ambient sense of dread and anxiety?" and then I'm like, "Oh right the pandemic that's killed 400,000 people and destroyed normal daily life and American democracy barely escaping an assasination attempt."

Just to be clear: there is nothing “pro-life” about denying people comprehensive sexual education, making birth control harder to access, forcing others to give birth against their will, and stripping them of healthcare and food assistance afterwards.

The answer to car-dependant “retail sprawl” can’t just be green tech on buildings in the fundamentally wrong place — & “better cars” isn’t the answer either. It’s to rethink the land-use, the mobility, the whole thing. Otherwise you’re just doing the wrong thing better. HT Singer

the police aren't just rioting against accountability, they are rejecting the right of the people to hold them accountable outright. nytimes.com/2020/06/05/opini…
