@IntractableLion @QuiltstarCo Interesting, I bought them once because of a post of yours that mentioned them but didn't know what to expect. They were bland and mushy.

@QuiltstarCo I ate three straight off the tree today, dude needs to try having teeth made of something other than marshmallows. Tastes like pomegranate & vanilla, easily in my top 5 fav apples

@jorilallo @signulll Emergency vehicles are insanely loud in @AmsterdamNL despite most of the traffic being bikes. They just malignantly cause hearing damage to most of the residents for no reason.
English
@signulll One of the reasons European cities are superior is the lower noise levels in general; less and quieter emergency vehicles, smaller cars, higher penetration of EVs and hybrids…
Noise is a tax on society

the worst part of manhattan isn’t the rent or the crowds, it’s the constant shriek of ambulance / fire trucks sirens slicing through your head at all hours.
every 2 minutes you get a piercing dopamine interrupt just so someone can move through traffic 5% faster. no city that fancies itself advanced should tolerate that kind of acoustic violence.
collective humanity makes such shitty decisions & then usually doubles down on them.

@pfvibes @BarBayeux I'm already planning on going to Berlin Nov 1, but do you have other dates planned?

Flags were ordered to be lowered by the President of the United States. Lower. Your. Flags.

the obvious elephant in the room is that if Tyler Robinson had shot a dozen random students in the crowd Republicans wouldn't even pretend to give a fuck

@MVJohnson So good and it's been so long since I put in on. Need to fix that

@AlexanderPayton @Rafa_Mangual What, taking over the streets from cars? Who gives a shit. Drivers of cars want to cry about other people acting like they own the road? The streets have long been owned by drivers instead of people. Doesn't matter if it's cars or ATVs.

As I’ve said before: Engagement in blatantly antisocial behavior in public spaces—like smoking on the subway—is an expression of power backed by a very credible threat of violence. It’s a win/win for the perps. If you hold your tongue, they get off on your silence insofar as it reinforces their self-perception as a tough guy; and if you speak up, it gives them an excuse to be violent.
Those arguing that such antisocial behavior shouldn’t be policed are inviting the decay of our shared spaces. We must never surrender our subways to the thugs who act out to assert dominance over them and other public spaces.

One thing that always strikes me is how much focus there is on crime and personal safety for obvious reasons, yet Americans just seem to accept that over 40,000 people die in traffic accidents every year and never really talk about trying to bring that number down

Property taxes are the most efficient and equitable tax humans have devised. They could only be improved by shifting more of the tax to the value of the unimproved land rather than the structures.
Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸@FmrRepMTG
Hi. We need to completely abolish property taxes. It forces us to pay “rent” to the government on property that we own, but if we don’t pay property taxes, the property that we own gets taken away from us. That should never happen in a free country. Secondly, health insurance is a giant scam that has become completely unaffordable. And it doesn’t make any sense and I don’t know anyone, and I mean anyone, that supports the current healthcare system in the United States. These are American Only issues and such significant problems that we should be addressing them the same way we would if our house was on fire. America Only!!!!!

@x_spinoza @leonardaisfunE Really? What about all the immigrants recently? All the H1Bs? All the Palestinians who will likely be relocated there. Will they suddenly be American?

@ds00za @big_pedestrian All you hear in a suburban enclave is cars. All you hear in shitty cities is cars. In proper cities you hear people.
English
@big_pedestrian if all you're hearing is the din of cutlery — you're walking through residential neighbourhoods, not urban areas of large international cities.
It's ok to want a quiet life! but i don't think making downtowns into quiet suburban enclaves is that exciting!
English
These people really want a walkable suburb — not so much a city. "soft hum of bicycles, conversation, tinkling of dinnerware" that's just a restaurant patio, not a city.
big_pedestrian@big_pedestrian
I’ve been to multiple cities in Europe in low/no traffic neighborhoods. The loudest sound was laughter (children in the day and people at sidewalk restaurants at night). The background noises were the soft hum of bicycles going by, conversation and the tinkling of dinnerware.😌
