We’re in an era where the fight against fascism and authoritarianism is on almost every ballot. Voting has always been important, but never more than now. Vote like your rights, your future, your vote itself, and even your life, are all on the line. Because there’s a very good chance they are.

Marr absolutely bossing it again 👏👏👏
he donated it all to two charities, Guide Dogs for the Blind & The National Autistic Society

as big a piece of shit as Morrissey is, that's how awsome Johnny Marr is
The Smith's Johnny Marr's guitars sell for almost £4m at auction
One instrument was used on the The Smiths' debut album and also appeared on the cover of Oasis's debut single.

“Copenhagen reported that 62% of its residents are now commuting to work or school by bike — an increase from 52% in 2015 & 36% in 2012, when the City Council launched a 14-year-plan to improve the quality, safety & comfort of cycling.”

#Copenhagen chose. They keep choosing even better every year.

“Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million/year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bicycle, even in winter. That’s $300/person each year.”

Safe bike infrastructure saves lives, AND money.

Here’s the source @grist.org article
One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss
Copenhagen, the bicycle-friendliest place on the planet, publishes a biannual Bicycle Account, and buried in its pages is a rather astonishing fact.

“As Aydin jumps a scooter over ramps set up in the middle of the road, children around him are drawing with chalk, blowing bubbles and kicking a football in a spot where cars are usually driving through.”

Good job Leeds. More children should have the chance to play in their neighbourhood like this.
Leeds: The city closing down streets so children can play
In Leeds, streets are being temporarily closed to traffic so kids have more space to safely play - an initiative proving beneficial to both children and adults.

Temperatures are well above 30°C, but people keep cycling.

Evening rush hour in Utrecht is as busy as usual. It is just that everyone is dressed a little more lightly.
