As terrified as some are about the transgender menace and #erasure of certain bodies i can't believe everyone getting upset about Secretary Pete Buttigieg .
PS also daily travel patterns and exposure to different risks vary partly for gender reasons. It's that science stuff. #MoveEquity
From Seattle to São Paulo, University of Washington #UWAllen ’s TCAT at UWCSE is working with G3ict, Microsoft's #AI for #accessibility program and local partners to make cities—and their sidewalks—smarter and safer for everyone: news.cs.washington.edu/2023/03/30/fro… OpenSidewalks UW Engineering #a11y #CSforGood

.@PKoonce notes that MUTCD doesn't require accessible signals. My comment: Shouldn't a federal manual support a federal law? Americans with Disabilities Act passed in 1990, people. 1990. #accessibility #MobilityJustice #MoveEquity #RoadSafety #nondrivers #transportation #MUTCD

Rep. Lauren Boebert Okay. I lied. I was going to try to leave #LandslideLauren alone today but people in #CO03 need good transportation and #MoveEquity just as much as people in #wa09 so maybe take a break from dissing Secretary Pete Buttigieg and pay attention when #OpenThePaths gets people to those jobs

I'm making this a walking meeting and just encountered an ADA sidewalk violation. No advance notice of this abrupt closure of a sidewalk with no ramp to the bike lane that I guess is the temporary space I'm to use. #sidewalks #MoveEquity #MobilityJustice #accessibility #ADA
Anthony Chen Working on design of the Washington State program later this year! Funded in 23-25 budget. We expect it won't meet all the demand. Hoping local and regional agencies also jump in. #EBikes #MoveEquity #WSDOTActive #BicyclesChangeLives #Bikes4Climate #Bikes4Health

Here's the craziest part: This example comes from Bill Bengen's original 'determining safe withdrawal rates' 1994 analysis, and it makes the case that staying invested in stocks has — historically — been the right move.
