I realised I've never done an #introduction either here or on birb app. The TL;DR is my handle and the emoji in my display name.
I'm Max, in Somerville, MA.
Common posting topics include #bikes #somerpoli (mostly in the form of note taking* and infra) #transit #yimby #urbanism
*Posted notes tend to be summaries, rather than live observations
As for the other emoji's, I'm a queer enby who likes sailing.
I also volunteer for things, the big ones this year were the Boston Marathon and HOCR.
Proposing to keep the #YIMBY 2022 platform as the 2023 platform:
* Ban new motorways & the widening of existing ones
* Ban car parking minimums
* Barcelona blocks & 15k ppl / km² as minimum zoning
* All areas mixed use
* Copenhagen street design
* E-bikes included in all new build housing
* Step-free transit stations
* Parks for all
What say you, fellow urbanism nerds?

NIMBYism And Red Tape Both Fall Into The Hole
Time for another #introduction I think 🤔
My name is Trey. 👋 I help developers sharpen their Python skills. I mostly teach core #Python, #Django, and #pytest. 🐍
I run a Python team training company and made PythonMorsels.com to help individuals and small teams level-up their skills.
I love #audiobooks, I'm into #vegetarian/#vegan cooking, I'm interested in Python on #WebAssembly, & I'm a #YIMBY. I've also acquired a habit of posting daily-ish #projects on Mastodon (thanks @simon).

Hey all!
I'm Steven.
On the bird site I spent a lot of time being angry about the BC government's terrible COVID response and equally terrible zoning laws.
Things that make me happy are my fish and peppers and Linux and tiny, impractical computers.
