Really interesting post on why we’ve moved away from climate-sensitive design around the world and why we all have the same ugly glass boxes in our cities.

A major axis in Lyon, rue Garibaldi was built in the 1960s as an eight-lane urban highway to facilitate car traffic in the center.

In 2010, it began a metamorphasis into a lush and leafy multi-modal corridor, with dedicated bus and cycle lanes, and space for walking and seating.

Helena Bibowa, the oldest and only surviving native speaker of a tiny language called Wymysiöeryś is turning 102 today.
In honor of that, let me take you along on the story of Wymysiöeryś.
It's of death and resurrection, and a hefty deal of random, but I promise it's a happy one.

Years ago, when I was in my 20s, a bold and artistically daring older friend who has since passed on gave me what I often think was the best advice I have ever gotten. I was worrying what 'people would think' of a decision I had made, and she said, 'Amanda, There is no audience.'

EDIT: The Edmonton Police Service is investigating after a pedestrian was taken to hospital with serious injuries after being hit by a driver who then left the scene.

When it comes to drivers crashing into vulnerable road users, it isn’t an accident.
