In America, mass transit is widely considered to be an alternative of last resort for the extremely poor rather than a safer, cheaper, cleaner and more efficient means of moving people around a metropolitan area.

When I see "Waymo saves lives" op-eds, I always do a quick search to see what the author has written extolling protected bike lanes. Or automatic speed cameras. Or road diets. The results are always the same: Nope. Nada. Zilch.

urban conservatives often conflate antisocial behavior with violent behavior on transit systems while simultaneously overstating the overall prevalence of both, and both of those types of things are bad when they do happen

Lindsey Graham spent the last decade of his life in public service as a US Senator, trying hard to be remembered as an enemy of the Constitution who worked to destroy American democracy and exhibited occasional signs that he knew why that was bad but kept doing it anyway. I will honor his choice.

fixing the court is table stakes for any Dem running for national office, you are not a serious candidate if you can’t get on board with this and refusing to do so is disqualifying in a primary because it doesn’t matter what your policy positions are if SCOTUS will just overrule them

When gas costs surged this yr, @wsdot.wa.gov maintenance staff ditched cars to start a scooter crew. They meet up on light rail & coast to work on protected bike lanes. Those lanes used to annoy them. But now? “The bike lanes are actually pretty good,” one told me. “We are on board. We want more.”
