This is a painful read. I mean seriously painful. But it’s also a must-read, and must-share, for everyone.
Maybe Rex Tillerson Was Right. Maybe Trump Really Is Just A Moron.
His lying and temper tantrums aside, evidence abounds that the president's most important, and dangerous, feature is his ignorance.

“Walkable cities allow you to access more amenities on foot for daily life, like going to school or work, buying ingredients for dinner…But that's not available to everyone, given many cities and suburbs in Canada and the U.S. have been designed to emphasize transport by car, urban planners say.”

It was inevitable for things to come to this.
Having visited Barcelona twice (both times in the off-season) I'm thrilled to have been fortunate enough to go but cannot help but feel complicit in the exacerbation of the scourge of over-tourism.

My wife complains that our Ford Escape is “too big”. After spending a few weeks vacationing in the south of France, I agree.
However, in the Costco parking lot…
Fuck I *hate* North American car culture and endless suburbs and exurbs and stroads and F-150s everywhere.
