This is something I wish more transit systems (besides Boston--they're really good at it) emphasized down here in the US. Even the most desolate station on a map can pull good patronage if people can conveniently access it via a surface transit transfer

This type of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in most of the United States. Yes, that *is* former Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin playing Minecraft. Why do you ask?

I’ve never been in denial about it but I do think today was the first day I truly realized how much antisemitism is spreading and being normalized in online far-left circles. It’s scary and frightening and is only going to get worse if the left insists it’s not a problem.

What my DMs look like right now. Why? Because a woman is suing the 7 men at Cornell who drugged, trafficked, and raped her—and I wrote an article addressing all men and condemning rapists. And predictably—weak men are offended. Here’s my article upsetting them: www.qasimrashid.com/p/cornell-un...

On the *same day* the Cornell Seven drugged and raped Jane Doe, Cornell banned four students (including the President of Cornell JVP) from campus for three years for nonviolent, pro-Palestine protests. The same Cornell officials let the rapists off with apology essays.

This is the 8th major profile of Emanuel since December 2024 that failed to mention Laquan McDonald. Here’s what he told the Senate, about the teen’s murder, during his Senate confirmation hearing in 2021. “That tragedy sits with me, as it has, every day and every week for the last seven years.”

People want to talk about trains but are missing out on the transformative power of a well-organized bus network. Colorado's Bustang has knocked intercity bus service out of the park and added 18 new routes since launching Bustang in 2015. Illinois should directly copy Colorado's success.

NJ Transit route 551 might be the most relaxing transit ride this region has to offer. Two hours at a relatively constant 60-65 mph clip between Philadelphia and Atlantic City, perfect ride to unwind or get some reading in

Kind of amazing how underappreciated “make the buses go faster” would save service hours, free up bus availability, and actually sell more fares, all of which are positives on a transit agency’s balance sheet

SEPTA needs to be properly funded but I also really like how their Reimagining Regional Rail vision stair steps from basically today’s system to the full buildout incrementally at logical steps. Post-pandemic, more agencies should take a service-first, sweat-your-assets approach to capital planning.

reading through the Reimagining Regional Rail report. it is so funny how all of the bottlenecks are written like "we know this is a huge problem but uhhh we'll figure out a specific solution later" 16th Street Junction by itself will probably be a billion dollars and several years of disruption

This is tragic. It's even more tragic knowing JTA has spent the last decade lavishly spending on a dysfunctional autonomous vehicle program of questionable value, that the public has shown little interest in using. For its troubles, Jacksonville gets to watch CEO Nat Ford pack his bags for Dallas.
