I am angry that the #VisionZero lesson being taken from Hoboken NJ is "daylight intersections," and not "daylight intersections on single-lane one-way streets, and not don't too many cars in dense cities."

You're not frogs, you know the water's warming up.

The twitter API change will likely kill free tools that find Mastodon accounts for your POCs here.

If you ever thought, "Maybe I'll get a mastodon spot sometime," it's time. Get an account and run this: https://debirdify.pruvisto.org/

I'm going to run it once more, but more importantly... now is the time to dust off your old twitter account, make sure your friends and colleagues still on twitter know about these tools, and make one last push to get them to establish a mastodon account.
