Word! I also read it as kind of a bizzaro counter to the attached comic, which I do think has merit in the conversation. I do agree with Professor Bender as I think this vague posting can apply "hit dogs holler" to both the response and the claim. Maybe not helpful/relevant, even aside the reality
4 panel comic meme of a derogatory critic of critics
of systems that are users or participants of said system.

Ends with a peasant stating "We should improve society somewhat" and the strawman character emergening for a well with gleeful look on their face replying "yet you participate in society. Curious! I am very intelligent."

Both the WSP and Cambridge reports relied on ST's dramatic fare evasion numbers to for ROI estimates but it seems like they weren't running manual checks to their own standards and the APC methods weren't safe to abstract? Seems like it's stabilized since December.
Screenshot of ST report showing:

Prior to October 2025 (January-October), approximately 71% of trips reporting APC data produced
invalid records (29% valid). After the removal of the trip matching flag, the proportion of invalid records
decreased to 61% for the full year (January-December 2025) (39% valid). Month to month data is
detailed below demonstrating the improved data retention following the adjustment in October:

Table
Month % of invalid data
September 2025 73.3%
October 2025 78.5%
November 2025 28.6%
December 2025 6.6%

For 2026, the percentage of invalid APC records has maintained the observed 10% (January-June),
corresponding to a 90% validity rate. After the flag for imbalance between boardings and alightings was
discontinued in April 2026, a minor improvement in data validity was seen.

You may find this map helpful. Before the fire and subsequent regrade, Duwaish water way was extension of Elliot Bay. SODO neighborhood is relocated fill dirt. Nothing existed there before this including what I-5 is built on.
Old photo of Seattle pre regrade/filling of duwaish water ways in elliot bay. Shows all of SODO is artificial.

I live in Seattle.
USPS tracking information for a package due to be delivered 7/25 (3 days before this post). History shows it was in the area 7/24 and then suddenly received in Wisconsin, then moved back to California, having just departed Sam Francisco this morning.

I finally did it. Only A9 complete for everyone. Still need Necro, Silent, and Regent on A10 but the A9 barrier is over. I still don’t understand the A9/10 Silent. I watched a lot of streamers run poison and just couldn’t cope act 2. Shivs carries me after figuring out how lean to run them.

And if you're curious, here's the same removing the totals but adding in how much Biden beat Trump by in each swing state in 2020. Numbers imply Trump just found more votes. For example, PA saw R.Diff increase by 165634. R.Diff - (2020.Diff + |D.Diff|) = 49892 votes.
More of the same from the previous post around presidential election numbers. You can run these yourself as info is public.

For clarity, here's the numbers I'm working with. 2024.Diff is Harris Votes - Trump Votes Totals are explanatory. 2024.Per and 2020.Per are just 2024.Diff / Respective Total R.Diff is Trump 2024 votes - Trump 2020 votes D.Diff is Harris 2024 votes - Biden 2020 votes Please notice R.Diff > |D.Diff|
Statistics for each swing state voting trends in 2020 and 2024 presidential elections.

You don’t need to admit you were trying to hijack the thread for yourself. It’s obvious.

Oh shuck. Forgot people can only do one thing at a time!
Classic meme comic of 4 panels of the same thing escalating, culminating in the last which one peasant holding a bundle of sticks saying “We should improve society somewhat” and the repeated character emerging from a well to say “Yet you participate in society. Curious! I am very intelligent.”

Toying around a little more from mobile though, it seems pretty buggy. Here’s it trying to suggest routes for Seattle, Emeryville (SF but it doesn’t say that), and Chicago. Seems like a lot of extra stops going places that definitely aren’t on the form like Eastern Canada.

And our market isn’t even that small. We have fans from Alaska to middle of Oregon and Montana. It’s a sports desert but 3 good sized metros root for the Seahawks consistently. It was more tolerable when Arizona was good and rich conservative people who live in Seattle and hate it wouldn’t shut up.

PNW, Montana, and provinces North of Montana favors Seahawks with concentration in Western WA. Rest of the map favors 49ers with concentration around the Northern half of California and Western half of Nevada.

I have an emotional support animal. She sets the standard for aspiration on automated self care. Try to take her for walks regularly and getting better on non-transit days. Have to keep trash in the can and bin and belongings put away or she shreds it. Guilt factor is strong motivation.

The largest immigrant group pre-rail road was Scandinavians. By the time the frontier opened up via rail, Ballard was two new generations deep. Other groups increased but Scandinavian influence remained large until the Klondike gold rush and eventually war. Anyway, here’s Nords at a bus stop.

They dumped all the fill dirt from those into Elliot Bay, leveled it, and called it SODO. Beacon Hill was the coast line.
