Opinion | I’ve Seen a Future Without Cars, and It’s Amazing

Why do American cities waste so much space on cars?

“Given how completely automobiles rule most cities, calling for their outright banishment can sound almost ludicrous. (We can’t even get some people to agree to wear masks to stop the spread of a devastating pandemic.)”

“Instead of fighting a war on cars, Toderian told me, urbanists should fight a war on car dependency — on cities that leave residents with few choices other than cars. Alleviating car dependency can improve commutes for everyone in a city.”

This is so important! I never know what to ask and end up looking like a fool cause I don’t have a question prepared. Don’t be me.

The weird thing about this post is that it ALWAYS shows up when I have an interview

I have been here, multiple times!  By referring to the order as a “Little Rosa”, you don’t have to make as big a deal out of the fact that you’re seeking help.

And believe it or not, it gets better. Rosa’s also gives out sweatshirts to the homeless (or sells them to the general public) that has information on local soup kitchens and even computer training in the area, on an insert sewn inside the sweatshirt.

(Details)

[jessicalprice]

Reblogged again for these excellent details.

[aviouslyy]

Also you can buy slices for the homeless through their online store, from anywhere, not just PA!

[royaleomens]

here is the link for anyone who wants to buy slices for the homeless

[pardonmewhileipanic]

thank you for the comment about buying online! I am in canada but would love to help

PLEASE SIGNAL BOOST

[clatterbane]

The URL has changed for their donations page. As of November 2019, this link should work.

$1 will get a slice for someone who needs it.

These are surprisingly easy to make and amazing-not-amazing how white evangelicals never seem to mention the huge amount of biblical passages about how the white supremacist capitalist police state they worship is so thoroughly anti-christian

HUGE NEWS!! THE SUPREME COURT JUST HAD A MASSIVELY IMPORTANT RULING THAT RESULTED IN NEARLY HALF OF OKLAHOMA BEING RETURNED TO THE NATIVES!

HERES AN ARTICLE ABOUT IT

[tsitsho]

So! I see a lot of the notes saying weird shit about how this is "misleading" or that it's not "actually being given back" and I want to say:

Those takes are incorrect.

This is, at its very core, the basis of land being returned to us. We don't want to make all white people/non native people leave the land or whatever. This is just step one, but it's also important to recognize that this is fundamentally what the LandBack movement has been trying to achieve. As far as I can tell? This is the first step to granting Indigenous people autonomous control over our own nations and land once more. I don't know much about how US law works, but I'm intimately aware of the aim and goals of the Indigenous (read: my) community.

So: please listen to actual native people on this. So so many of us have been sobbing tears of joy over this, crying and being in shock, because we can barely believe that we got SUCH an incredible and major win. This is what we want. Do not write over that with your white misinterpretations of what it is we mean by Land Back.

Niá:wen, listen to natives, have a nice day.

Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)

For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here

[shoyowo]

Remember when NYT mocked India for this very thing and an TOI (a major indian newspaper) responded with this? :)

They were being racist asf and we were till respectful literally fuck you if you think ‘third world counties’ can’t be better than you

[shoyowo]

white people can and should reblog this

[seriesofnonsequiturs]

and shout out to the women engineers integral to the launch

“Indian staff from the Indian Space Research Organisation celebrate after the Mars Orbiter Spacecraft entered Mars’s orbit.

On November 5, 2013, a rocket launched toward Mars. It was India’s first interplanetary mission, Mangalyaan, and a terrific gamble. Only 40 percent of missions sent to Mars by major space organizations—NASA, Russia’s, Japan’s, or China’s—had ever been a success. No space organization had succeeded on its first attempt. What’s more, India’s space organization, ISRO, had very little funding: while NASA’s Mars probe, Maven, cost $651 million, the budget for this mission was $74 million. 

This was not the only success of the mission. An image of the scientists celebrating in the mission control room went viral. Girls in India and beyond gained new heroes: the kind that wear sarees and tie flowers in their hair, and send rockets into space.”

[ambrosiadarling]

there’s a movie adaptation of this! it’s obviously more dramatized/they use different names but i really really loved the movie! it’s called mission mangal and it was the first time i had heard of this and i was so surprised that literally? no one talked about it??? what they accomplished is incredible.

[lastbenchpapers]

ALSO, Mangalyaan launched in 2013 and was meant to be a 6 month mission. It’s been in orbit around Mars now for more than 5 years and has enough propellant to keep going for even longer.

“The kind that wear sarees and tie flowers in their hair, and send rockets into space.”
