The great thing about getting married in a city is everyone can walk from the wedding to the reception.

- Doesn't bode well for as a civilization that a lot of people think environmentalism means "being able to see grass".
- Sports prove over and over again that upper middle class and even rich Americans will willingly ride transit when it's the most convenient way to get around.
- The way some young dudes destroy their lives to buy toy trucks is truly heartbreaking. In an update we find out the dude is paying $1,966 for 72 months (at 14%) for this $95 THOUSAND truck. Would have been better off getting hooked on sports betting!
- Next time someone laughs at the idea of environmental racism or classism, show them this picture.
- I know a lot of fellow progressives don't want to hear this, but if we want more middle class families to ride transit we're going to have to address anti-social behavior on trains and buses.The unholy trinity of the LA Metro: -Dude smoking a cigarette -Music from a headphoneless jackass -Crackhead smoking meth
00:00 - Our urban canyons should be for happy hours, not car sewers
- How this bro is going to feel in a few months when they repossess his truck *and* he's still deeply in debt:
GIF - I know structural racism can seem pretty abstract, but Kathy Hochul canceling the subway extension to Harlem to appease wealthy suburban business owners is a pretty clear cut case of structural racism.
- A dude wearing a $1,250 Balenciaga sweatshirt complaining about the city selling out by building affordable housing for seniors is just perfect.
- Call me a "carceral urbanist" all you want; this driver belongs in prison and should never be allowed to drive again for the rest of his life.
- The American urban planner cannot grasp how cool it would be to walk down a narrow pedestrian street with a bunch of lit up signs
