- Reposted by Perry KingToday I learned about the Worldwide Sidewalk Joy map. (worldwidesidewalkjoy.com). It’s locations around the globe where you can exchange or pick up free trinkets, puzzles, mugs, toys or books. Or even visit curated free little installations. What a lovely little concept!
- Reposted by Perry KingI'm surprised we don't yet have announced boycotts of the World Cup, but unless the World Cup goes off totally implausibly and improbably smoothly for international athletes and fans alike, it's hard for me to imagine that the '28 Olympics in LA won't get hit hard with boycotts.

- Reposted by Perry KingNever forget, if you design a city for cars, it fails for everyone, including drivers. If you design a multi-modal city that makes walking, biking & public transit attractive options, it works better for everyone, including drivers. INCLUDING DRIVERS. The “war on cars” has always been a lie.
