The impacts and design of social media often lead to destructive behaviors. anxiousgeneration.com/ Life is beautiful. Seek out honest ways of knowing and honest relationships. Learn from nature. Humanity has much to learn to repair relationships with each other and nature.

Fantastic clip from @NotJustBikes on how prioritizing cars actually hurts Main Street businesses and communities.
It includes a nice quote from the local Board of Trade who thought prioritizing cars would help the town centre.
Guess what actually happened?

Happy Indigenous Peoples Day! Just a reminder that Native Americans are not a historical people, that we are still here, and that the biggest injustice in U.S. history—the dispossession of land from Indigenous nations largely by fraudulent treaties—remains ongoing

The Economist just published a deeply-researched story about car bloat, and it's very, very damning:
"For every life that the heaviest 1% of SUVs and trucks save, there are more than a dozen lives lost in other vehicles."
Well worth your time: economist.com/interactive/un…
