Giving away tons of city land for free is fine with Mendo though, as long as it's used for parking.

Per a report for this week's WMATA board meeting, @purplelinemd.bsky.social passengers will be able to pay fares by tapping phones or credit cards like they do on Metro; SmarTrip cards will also work. There will be support for transfers, but that document says @mta.maryland.gov will set those rules.

Elon Musk is an unstable right-wing grifter with more power than any one else in the world. But my liberal neighbor has convinced my city council to put in bike lanes on the road I use to commute to work. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Absolutely devastated to learn that Chicago is getting TODmogged by Tempe, AZ. Unironically embarrassing.
A Whole Foods in Tempe, AZ with five floors of apartments built on top. On the street in front of the development is a light rail station and a bike lane.

This kind of mid-rise, native planting urbanism is banned in most places.
Looking down sidewalk past four-story brick apartments on either side of a street. Most of the area directly in front of the building is devoted to a native prairie planting, with a small 8x10 patch of lawn remaining.

Fine to disagree on tax policy, but not fine to work with GOP to significantly limit DC home rule. If DoorDash thinks DC will accept them intervening in our tax code, they don't deserve our business. I've deleted my DoorDash account and encourage others to do the same.

I’ve been to this spot in Delft so many times over the years & it continues to inspire. The area around the first woonerf tells a story of people pushing back for slower & safer streets, but it also tells a story of the beauty that comes when you open up places for people. Quiet, calm, and lovely

Sad to see it go. Midnight movies here used to be one my favorite things in the world. Louisville really needs to figure out a way to grow and add new residents and businesses to the highlands. The steadfast refusal to change really feels like it has left the highlands a shell of what it used to be.

I do need the record to reflect that no one in DC wants this. No one in DC has asked for this. I live in DC. I work in DC. I go out in DC. I feel safe, I don’t feel threatened by crime. I will feel threatened by Trump’s troops.
