Jake Gotta@jakegotta.bsky.social · 6d ago“Cars are the most absurd means of transport in a city,” [says Jean-Louis Missika, Paris’s deputy mayor for urbanisation]. “They are parked 95% of the time. It takes two tonnes to move someone who weighs 70kg. And the denser the city, the more absurd it is.” www.ft.com/content/882e...

Anyone ask Jay Cashman for comment on Louisa Gag’s death?
There’s a deeper issue this misses: the coercively individualistic nature of AI. Unquestioned is everyone in r’ship w AI individually. We need intentional social engagement with AI to defeat the divide/conquer/control agenda programmed by its corporate masters. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/07/15/m...

This study on the prevalence of low-level gas leaks is consistent with important research from the @eeb.org @davidesabbadin.bsky.social that showed 40% of gas stoves in UK, NL and IT were leaking and that the leaking methane contained benzene.

"May" means IT DOES GO BEYOND YOUR STOVE bc gas systems are built to emit or they explode, from extraction to end use.

Natural gas naturally leaks—from the wellhead to the kitchen stove and from every point in between. This isn’t a design flaw or a plumbing problem. Leaks are baked into the engineering. Without methane venting, shit blows up. Natural gas is a potent climate killer. It’s time to stop burning it.
