Finally get lost in the small streets with my friendly guide.

Was haltet Ihr davon ?

#Bike #NoCar #FreieInnenstadt

Es muss nicht immer das Lastenrad sein. Manchmal tut es auch der Kinderwagen, wenn der Kaufrausch mit einem durchgeht... (und das Baby hatte Spaß auf Mamas Schultern)

Ich besitze ein KFZ, versuche aber die Nutzung so gut wie möglich zu vermeiden. Alles in der Stadt geht eigentlich ohne.

Hey if you're in the Puget Sound area, and a Python enthusiast, a transit enthusiast, or both, I have a great event for you!

I managed to book Anna Zivarts, author of "When Driving Is Not an Option: Steering Away from Car Dependence" for the September PuPPy Meetup!

We'll be giving away three copies of her book at the meetup, you can RSVP here: https://www.meetup.com/psppython/events/302518897/?eventOrigin=group_events_list

Are modern SUVs really "as big as a Sherman tank?" Not yet, but getting there.

Die Autos hielten erstaunlicherweise mal den #Abstand ein.

@rmateu Yeah, true. – In my case: I have #nocar and not wanting to sync everything makes #airshow about perfect for me.

Welcome. It's not that I am #NewToMastodon, but I am rather #neuhier with regards to the server I am on, so please allow to introduce myself, politely:

This is a rather private profile, with occasional toots around German #politics, #football and my personal life decisions (they’ll bring me to hell, I bet, if you believe in such stuff).

I'm #antifascist, and a #nocar person, and from that I think it is easy to conclude on the rest of my political views. If in doubt, please ask. Be prepared that most of my views are leaning towards what has been called #leftHegelianism.

Having worked in #ops and considering myself as #philosophy nerd for years, I am currently working as project lead for #BuildingAutomation and #EnergyManagementSystems. I am sure that humankind needs to change in that regards, and these four have to play a major role in that change.

Living in #Leipzig, #Germany I am happy to answer all questions around topics taking place in mid Europe, as I consider myself as European rather than German.

Heute mit @senfglas einen Gartenzaun gebaut. Ich finde wir können stolz sein.

Material haben wir ganz ohne Auto rangeschafft.

Buses have gotten more democratic. Nowadays aisle seats also get a window. #roadtrip #nocar

Indeed "Blaming voters is not a strategy for success."

"lazy voters"

"why couldn't *they just take 5 mins & go vote"

*they - #Disabled, #NoCar #Senior #SingleParent #ESL #NightShift #MentalHealth #Ill and more.

Its advantageous for some parties to retain the WAY we actually cast our ballot, but it suppresses voting. In our tech world, the electorate (young & old) is increasing rejecting in-person voting & staying home.

Make voting more convenient= more engagement?
