STARTER PACKS from credible sources are still a key way to find great accounts to follow, and also to BUILD GREAT COMMUNITIES here on Bluesky. They’ve been key for the Urbanist community here. This one supported global urbanists from OUTSIDE North America. I hope you’ll follow them, and SHARE IT.

School Streets are transformational! Great School Streets make me so happy & ready to believe again in a livable future. Want to feel happy too? Share this clip about NYC's 34th Ave from @streetfilms.bsky.social Yes to streets as places of joy & fun! Yes! to places to hang out with your friends❤️

Enthusiastic Deputy Mayor of Ghent, @filipwatteeuw.bsky.social, was the visionary behind Gent's circulation plan. With a 6-year term and just €6 million, he implemented a circulation plan focused on people rather than cars. He got it done + has been re-elected 2x since. Here's his story at #CRBAM26

The start of the Dutch Cycle Messenger Championships! About 100 contestants on either fixies or human-powered cargo bikes racing to pick up their trip manifests and start the 3-hour race.

WELKER: Should Americans be bracing for the price of oil to go over $200 a barrel? CHRIS WRIGHT: So Iran calls us the 'great Satan.' I don't think we are the great Satan. In fact, clearly, we're not. WELKER: So that's a no? WRIGHT: It's a, uh, I would pay no attention to what Iran says, but ...

The rich and powerful have sunk trillions into concrete, steel & fossil fuels that benefit them, not us. Our lives and our bodies are on the line. Car culture kills & maims millions of us every year, especially our children & people who are poor or old or disabled. We must win this #WARonWALKING

Wishing you all a sweet new year.

Paris is a city that's been WINNING the WAR ON WALKING. In the past decade city leaders built 300+ School Streets, launched a 15-minute city and reclaimed their downtown waterfront. It's a place people can enjoy an evening outside on what used to be a car freeway. This is what every city deserves.

Biking builds trust. Great bike streets build friendships. In another city, this cluster of middle-aged guys might each be driving their own SUV to the pub or the grocery store. On bikes in #Utrecht NL these guys can relax, talk, and get to know each other.

I make clay pigeons.

#BirdOfTheDay theme is #Pigeons Pigeons used to flock to Venice. Now they're just an occasional tourist.

By definition, cities are places for people. The best cities are walking cities. The WAR ON WALKING is anti-city, and an attack on our future life on earth.

Seven Must-Read Books by Gloria Steinem w/ brief descriptions of them in @msmagazine.com, the feminist magazine she co-founded. Her memory is a blessing.

"When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds." Wendell Berry 1934-2026

Hetty asked me to design the cover of her 80th birthday photo album. She wanted me to paint her first ride she ever took with her husband, sitting in front of him on his bike because she didn't have the balance to sit behind him on a bike. www.cathytuttle.nl/store/p/w3sr...

In his first long English-language interview, 39-year-old Dutch Prime Minister @robjetten.bsky.social speaks @ tolerance, trust, work-life balance, rights for women, black, gay, trans people, human rights, climate action, and delivering basic human needs. The future of The Netherlands looks bright.

Bike infrastructure gets a tiny fraction of all transportation space and money. This is true in Portland as well as other US cities. Of the 68 paved lanes between I-405 and the Willamette, 6 are dedicated to transit, 4 to bikes, 58 to cars.

DOLLY is the third most popular family cargo bike in the Netherlands, after Urban Arrow and Bakfiets.nl.

Cities aren't loud. Cars are loud. Your city doesn't have too much traffic. Your city has too many cars. #Utrecht rush hour 🚲❤️ Steden maken geen lawaai. Auto's maken lawaai. Er is niet te veel verkeer in jouw stad. Er zijn te veel auto's in jouw stad. #Utrecht spits 🚲❤️

Morning rush hour. Safe routes to school. Streets designed for people to fully live their lives. Not a city (or a country) at war with its own people. ❤️ #cargobike #Utrecht

Not every pedestrian street will work year-round, at least not yet. Some need to be strengthened/revitalized first. The street has to already be reasonably successful as a sustainable summer people-magnet. Vancouver’s Granville Street isn’t ready yet. Seattle’s Pike Place IS ready to be year-round.

This mashup from @brenttoderian.bsky.social + @katharinehayhoe.com makes sense. Cities have always been resilient, diverse, amalgamations of humanity, where proximity breeds creativity & tolerance. We need that creativity & tolerance on hyperdrive to demand an achievable climate future.
