inspiring: this rubbish isn't even for a bluecheck payout 💗
No city is walkable if it is built on stolen land. "Walkable city" is an ableist capitalistic term often used for stolen land. Walk to your local educators & beg them for material about ableism, to get serious about your criteria for critical thinking skills.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
In urban planning, "walkability" means how easily people can get around on foot, and is commonly defined to include wheelchair users. Research treats walkable design as improving disability access. The attached definition of ableism doesn't mention walkability.

Watching this man run committee hearings is excruciating. Everyone is about to get to see a lot of a truly terrible person. He makes Mike Johnson seem like a nice, reasonable guy.

Mass transit is absolutely critical for all 67 counties across our Commonwealth. It’s not just SEPTA in Philly or PRT in Pittsburgh — it’s also the buses and shared ride services in our suburbs and rural communities that get folks where they need to go every single day.
With a Democratic trifecta, we will FINALLY deliver mass transit funding for the nearly 1 million Pennsylvanians who rely on it every single day.

south asians with low spice tolerance should be a protected minority. you see just how “tolerant” white leftists are when they find out they can eat spicier food than you…
lived in big walkable cities car-free for all of my childhood and it works so. much. better. for everyone

getting your children on a bus or train is pretty easy, and certainly easier than driving them around in a car to everything for 16 years. perhaps transit requires a tricky couple first trips, but it is far from hard when you do it hundreds of times xitter.gq/zanyfen/status/2119542…

This might be the funniest tweet of all time because Amtrak's clientele is on average far more civilized, ruly, and orderly than those on airlines.

It would be a good bit to run for positions that I wholeheartedly believe should not be elected and my platform being that I will entrust the bureaucrats who already run the place and push for the position to be made a executive appointment, I actually support worker democracy!

Half a million workers in Pennsylvania still make less than $15 an hour — you can’t live off of that in 2026.
Now, we’re finally able to change that.
The very first bill that I will sign into law with our new Democratic majority this January will be to raise our minimum wage — and make sure every Pennsylvania worker has a livable wage. It’s long overdue.

🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS -- REP. JIM JORDAN will announce this morning that he's running for House minority leader.
The Ohio Republican is the first person in the minority leader race.
JORDAN will make the case that the leadership needs new blood, investigations are his specialty.
MIKE JOHNSON and STEVE SCALISE have not said what they will do yet.
(@PunchbowlNews text subscribers had it first)
