The original Pebble Round was probably the coolest device I have ever owned. This is going to be the best smartwatch of all time, hands down. I have already preordered one in addition to my incoming Pebble Time 2.
So thrilled that @repebble.com is back (thank you @ericmigi.com)!

The big problem with NEPA reform -- which I'd like to see NEPA reformers grapple with a bit more -- is that if you open the thing up, most of the legislators doing the "reforming" are hostile to it & just want to get rid of env. review entirely. It's not a good-faith process.

What if the United States had high-speed rail?
High-speed rail is a proven alternative to gridlocked highways and overcrowded airports. CNN has reimagined a faster, more connected future for US commuters.

Ensor St is a six lane arterial, and was supposed to have a separated bike lane installed by 2021.

We have to start taking the crises of biodiversity loss and ecological destruction seriously.
Yesterday was National Prairie Day so this is my annual reminder that Illinois calls itself "The Prairie State."
But a more honest name would be “We Destroyed The Prairie State."
