Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 20/08/2026Unfortunately had to stop evangelizing @trmnl.com to people since this is its founder. 140
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 19/08/2026This puking squirrel gravy boat has been at our family's thanksgiving table for 15 years now 0233
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 18/08/2026Yes, it appears the police dept is not involved in Chicago. The data from the speed cameras is transmitted to the Dept of Finance and they adjudicate whether it is a violation and send the citation. 010
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 12/08/2026@the48thward.bsky.social does this film production need (and have) a permit to completely block the sidewalk and force pedestrians into the street? 010
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 25/07/2026Ok yeah they weren’t kidding about Nollendorfplatz. It just took 3 hours for the parade to get here 010
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 12/06/2026I was genuinely shocked at the distances between crosswalks in some of Toronto's very dense pedestrian-heavy areas. This stretch in Kensington Market on a streetcar line is 1100+ feet (~350m) without a crosswalk. 010
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 10/06/2026Hey there Dr Oz you can work 8 hours and watch 6 hours of TV in a day, hope this helps. 100
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 26/05/2026Guess the #andersonville Taco Bell no longer has a patio. Should have known that was too good to be true. 010
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 17/05/2026I see your bizarre Indiana tourist center and raise you this unnecessarily complex Indiana rest stop. 170
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 16/05/2026Also crazy: the lack of crosswalks. In this area packed with retail on both sides of the street, the next pedestrian crossing is barely visible in this photo. 000
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 30/04/2026Some of the signage that inspired mine. I did want to avoid the angled text on the strip map and increase legibility from afair and I think luckily CTA stop names are generally short so it works pretty well. 020
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 30/04/2026I focused on removing redundant info (not listing the next stop twice) and making the most important info as big as possible for viewing at a distance. I also display the map while in motion but swap to a separate arrival screen with very large info when pulling into a station. 120
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 30/04/2026I have... issues with the current UX of the passenger info displays on the new @chicagocta.bsky.social trains. Took a stab at what I think would be a better solution, inspired by the new Paris Metro trains and NYC Subway. 180
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 29/04/2026It's interesting that they see this product for children and think it is what adults have always wanted but just rendered more realistically 050
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 25/04/2026Seems like the headlines are paraphrasing a much more specific quote from the publisher in a way that makes it untrue 1120
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 25/04/2026They could have at least looked up the plot summaries of his books on Wikipedia lol 050
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 22/04/2026WIP #shinkansen map. Not 100% sure how I want the final to look but want it just to be made of station names. Playing with the idea of overlapping two misregistered inks for transfer stations. 031
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 19/04/2026I’d say go all in. Zero per zero did some really great brown transit maps 110
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 15/04/2026Played the hell out of SimTown (which we rented on CD-ROM from the public library) 010
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 08/03/2026Made a new poster of the Yamanote Line in Tokyo. Prints available in my etsy! www.etsy.com/listing/4468... 030
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 17/02/2026The way Marta shows evening service is odd too. Both styles feel like they’re putting an “asterisk” on this part of the line, implying it’s only partial service here. But this is actually the part of the line that is always served. The rest of the line is not served at off hours. 010
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 17/02/2026So many strange choices on Marta. They devote so much real estate on the in car maps to repeating the same evacuation information three times for tunnel, grade, and elevated. The top two diagrams seem to be actually identical. The bottom is slightly visually different but doesn’t provide new info. 000
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 15/02/2026The bulk of this screen is showing instructions for using an escalator 120
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 15/02/2026Strange that Marta shows all arrivals on both platforms. Got excited my train was arriving but it was on the other side. 421
Michael Tyznik @tyznik.com · 01/02/2026I have always wondered the same about this sign in Indiana 0160
