The California DMV routinely allows dangerous drivers with horrifying histories to continue to operate on our roadways. Too often they go on to kill. Many keep driving even after they kill. Some go on to kill again.

A new community where people can just vent about or actually do coordinate action against the pest of ultra bright LEDs.

What analog photography feeds do you have? I'm currently only subscribed to Emulsive, which seems to have stopped being updated, and parts of 35mmc

Not quite as bad for the environment, and often just worse when it comes to all of the other reasons why cars are terrible.

High top speeds isn't the reason that HS2 is costing so much, there's a lot of overbuilding of things like tunnelling under rural areas to keep certain voters happy. Also, the UK absolutely can afford to finish it, it's a political choice not to.

We have that in the UK, the parties all publish manifestos before elections. I think it helps to get the message across and to be clear about what they are and aren't promising to do. They aren't, however, legally enforceable so parties aren't obliged to actually follow up on their promises.

It looks like a hand coloured photo to me, which were apparently popular in Japan for a while

Timeguessr is very similar to whentaken, but I prefer the former.

In two years presumably. It's been two years away since 2015.

What's the difference?

Anti car doesn't mean completely banning cars. Nobody is saying to replace ambulances with bus trips. There's obviously a need and cars would be much more effective for those things if the roads weren't clogged with people who don't have a need.

Fast & frequent public transport, safe cycling infrastructure, footpaths, just putting things closer together to reduce the need for transport
