Today #Amsterdam starts a transition experiment of 6 weeks that reclaims a car dominated street as public space.

The Weesperstraat has been seen as important link for car traffic to get in and out central Amsterdam for four decades.
Businesses fear for their accessibility & refer to the street as 'an artery'. Invoking the classic metaphor of cities as bodies, car traffic as blood . 2/🧵

This blinds us to why and how cities have always functioned as places for human interaction.
Instead of continuous pumping, a good city street constantly entices you to slow down, stop and linger to enjoy the public life around you.

¿Estuvo a la altura el final?
En lo personal, creo que no.
Creo que #TedLasso mantuvo su encanto, pero perdió la elegancia en su escritura. En el trato y desarrollo de sus personajes.
Entiendo que muchos creen que es porque Ted mismo es "ninguneado", pero discrepo.
El Lassismo es una filosofía que se arraiga.

Y por eso los personajes que mejor funcionan son aquellos a los que esa forma de ver el mundo los cambió. Kent, Crimm, y el maravilloso desarrollo de Jamie Tartt.

As Richard Poe says, 'George Washington referred to the original 13 states as an empire... New YORK is called the empire state'
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empire_St…
George Washington in a 1785 letter to James Duane, NYC Mayor, called New York "the Seat of the Empire". Washington is said to have used the phrase"Pathway to Empire"when referring to the state in conversation w/ George Clinton, the NY Governor in the 1790s

Estas "manos orando" fueron dibujadas con tinta negra y blaco de plomo, sobre papel azul. Las podéis ver en el Museo "Graphische Sammlung Albertina", #Viena (#Austria).

This sign was covered by a small billboard for many years, that's probably why it was still legible in 1986, as you can see on this photo: archief.amsterdam/beeldbank/deta…

I'll start with a couple of curious updates from stories which broke yesterday...
First the case of one of #Russia's richest men who gave up his citizenship saying he couldn't be a part of a fascist country.
But Oleg Tinkov, who now lives in London, has since deleted this post

Buses are the superstars of the energy transition.
They make up 0.2% of vehicles in Europe, but deliver 10% of passenger kilometres. They even have a higher share of zero-emission vehicles than cars.
Our new paper looks out what's driving the change

Our new paper looks out what's driving the change
(1/5)
Buses don't have CO2 standards yet, so demand-side measures are largely driving this trend. Sales shares vary wildly across Member States. In some, electric buses make up close to half of their sales (FI🇫🇮 NL🇳🇱 DK🇩🇰). In others, nearly none are sold (GR🇬🇷, IE🇮🇪, PT🇵🇹).
(2/5)
(2/5)
Cities are showing the most impressive commitment. Over half of Europes' capital cities plan for a fully zero-emission bus fleet by 2040. #Amsterdam and #Copenhagen are leading by example with a 2025 phase-out date.

🛏️ Im Liegewagen wird es klassische 4er-Abteile geben sowie die "Mini Cabins", die einem Kapselhotel nachempfunden sind.
🛌 Im Schlafwagen gibt es grundsätzlich nur 2er-Abteile und zwar in den Kategorien "Comfort" und "Comfort plus". In beiden Kategorien gibt es ein WC am Abteil, eine eigene Dusche nur bei "Comfort plus".

Una de las cosas que tenía pendientes antes de mudarme de Países Bajos era visitar Micropia, uno de los pocos museos del mundo dedicados exclusivamente a la microbiología. Va hilo sobre la visita
Lo primero que hay que decir es que la visita está totalmente recomendada. Es un museo anejo al zoológico de Amsterdam, se ve en 60-90 minutos y la musealización es sencillamente espectacular. Aunque algo caro (17.50 euros adultos) merece totalmente la pena.
¿Qué podemos encontrar en Micropia? Pues el museo se divide claramente en 2 ámbitos. La planta de arriba está dedicada enteramente a biodiversidad y ecología. La planta de abajo está más relacionada con las aplicaciones, beneficios, plagas o enfermedades de los microorganismos.
On July 17, 2014, Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777-200ER on flight #MH17 from #Amsterdam to #KualaLumpur was shot down over #Ukraine. There is a competent technical analysis of the events surrounding the crash that strip away the fakes around the technical part of the crash.

The analysis was conducted by Mark Solonin on his YouTube channel, disproving almost all the main fabrications about the technical part of the crime. His three videos take up over four hours of airtime, but it's worth spending that time if you want to know the truth.

On the delivery of the Buk surface-to-air missile (SAM) system to the launch site, there was also a remarkable investigation by both the Joint Investigation Team (JIT ) and several teams of investigative journalists.

Ich hab mir das mal angeschaut. Ein Datenanalyse-🧵
🤓 Zur Methodik. Für einen Zeitraum von 30 Tagen (ab heute) habe ich 13 Strecken des @unsereOEBB Nightjet auf freie Liege- und Schlafwagenplätze untersucht. Dabei habe ich mich auf *tägliche* Züge und *eine Richtung* pro Strecke beschränkt. Insgesamt sind das 390 Zugverbindungen.
📊 Und hier seht ihr das Hauptergebnis, aufgeschlüsselt nach Wagenkategorie.
Wichtig: Der graue Balken zeigt an, wann es *überhaupt* noch freie Schlafplätze gibt, egal in welcher Kategorie. Manchmal gibt es nur noch #Liegewagen, manchmal nur noch #Schlafwagen, machmal beides.

In the 1980s there was a major cultural shift in the #Stonewall Riot commemorations.
The previous more loosely organized, grassroots marches and parades were taken over by more organized and less radical elements of the gay community.
The previous more loosely organized, grassroots marches and parades were taken over by more organized and less radical elements of the gay community.
The marches began dropping "Liberation" and "Freedom" from their names under pressure from more conservative members of the community, replacing them with the philosophy of "Gay Pride".

The Malaysia Airlines Boeing 777-200ER #MH17 flying from #Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur on 17 July 2014 was shot down by a Buk surface-to-air missile system over the eastern #Ukraine
The JIT and several groups of journalists have conducted a remarkable investigation. How, from where and by whom the Buk was delivered to the launch site and even the names of people involved in the launch are known. We won't go into these details. Anyone can find the materials
However, so far there has been no clear answer as to who the mastermind of the crime was and what his motives were. It's clear that it was #Putin, although the international institutions involved in the investigation are shamefully silent on the matter. But what are the motives?
