I listened to the @99piorg episode “De Fiets is Niets” and I am inspired by how Dutch cyclists used their bikes as a form of resistance. They spent decades using civil disobedience to better their community—even during Nazi occupation. Highly recommend if you heard it yet.
this illustrates why the argument of “a few bad apples” is a fundamentally bad frame to explain police brutality. there’s no individual enacting violence here. what we see are powerful institutions manufacturing a (non-existent) threat to rationalize mass violence on its own ppl.

Instead of vilifying anti-war protesters, our elected officials should stop sending our tax dollars to fund a genocide. We have very real issues here in the U.S. that need to be addressed, like homelessness, the affordability of housing, healthcare, and so many other things.
If taxpayers are going to pay to build a stadium, then the taxpayers should own the stadium. You can’t socialize the cost, then privatize the profits.
Elected officials who take money from Big Oil and do the bidding of companies like Exxon are acknowledging #EarthDay today. If only they acknowledged our planet by rejecting that money and voted the way they’re speaking today. Green New Deal NOW.
I think it should be more normal for companies to offer Earth Day off every year. It would reduce carbon emissions from commuting, encourage more people to volunteer that day, and give additional awareness around planet-friendly initiatives.
I’m taking my parents on their first @Metrolink trip for Earth Day! Free rides all day.
God speed to all the music journalists today out there writing valid critics of a boring Taylor Swift album who will face the wrath of Swifties (a ravenous fanbase akin to MAGA loyalists, I fear) in their comments.
The cities with the highest light rail ridership in the United States are in Southern California. The demand for public transit in our region is growing. The status quo of traffic and sprawl must end. Vote for candidates that will fund, build, and expand our mass transit systems

It’s that time of spending time with my Republican parents that they flip on FOX News after dinner and I have to find an excuse not to be in the room so I don’t throw a chair out the window.
EXCLUSIVE: Participant, the 20-year-old film and television production company whose mission was to inspire social justice and humanitarian action, is shutting down. Established in 2004, Participant co-produced or co-financed a number of notable movies including best picture…
This is really disappointing news.
We just want universal healthcare. And maybe some high-speed trains.
Hey uh what the fuck is this
It would not be a stretch to describe the California Coastal Commission as the official greenwashing agency of the car industry. They mandate parking lots. They ban walkable housing. And they let shit like this happen.

Notice how Palestinian flags are always paired with Irish flags, while Israeli flags are paired with UK flags.
Failure to distinguish between e-bikes and other types of moped, motorized scooter and motorcycle results in both danger to people on foot and bikes and galvanizes anti-bike sentiment against ALL bikes. Heavy, fast, power-assisted vehicles do not belong in bike ones or sidewalks.

When I hear Christians scoff at environmental concern, I first think that God created this earth so why wouldn’t we want to care for his creation? Secondly, Earth Day was founded by Christians. According to Lectio365:

Happy #EarthDay2024 “Transportation” (automobiles) is California’s single biggest contributor—by far—to GHG emissions (40%). Tires+roads are also tied for 1st as a source of microplastics in oceans and rivers (35%). Cars are also used to kill ~350million animals a year in the US.

California NIMBYs have been voting for automobile dependent sprawl for decades. Now the risks associated with this development type are being priced. Telling California the truth about where and how it’s safe to build is essential for our state’s survival but may not be popular.
Nearly every carrier has exited the CA marketplace, has a moratorium on new business, or is nonrenewing homeowners and property policies en masse and no one is holding @RicardoLara4CA to account. We are in an unprecedented crisis and it is only getting worse.
I don’t blame anyone for driving. Most people don’t have the bandwidth or inclination to try and disrupt the status quo. What I do blame them for is resisting changes which would keep all road users safe on the grounds it may inconvenience them in the slightest. That’s a choice.
Like individuals in all dysfunctional systems, drivers can choose to be an active part of the solution - demanding smart infrastructure that protects and serves all road users - or a passive part of the problem.
