I often think about this similar to how computer networks operate -- even just 1 or 2% packet loss means performance is in the toilet. We often deal with much worse ratios when it comes to sidewalks

Winter makes our transportation priorities so clear: Street: perfectly clear Taxpayer subsidized (“free”) on street car storage: almost perfectly clear Bikeway: doesn’t exist here Sidewalk: covered in snow w/ hundreds of footprints almost 2 weeks after the last snowfall. #PlowMPLSsidewalks

Now HERE is an extra foamy railfan shot back when the SN was still under wire at West Pittsburg, Calif. in 1956. Love the hastily repurposed railfan gondola.

It's a month old and has 7 million views, so you may have seen it, but James Bruton made a pretty amazing ball-wheeled electric bike. The demo at the end shows it wouldn't be a good real-world transportation option, but definitely a fun gadget in controlled spaces youtu.be/ZVFB2g25OkM

With 3 of 6 bike bridges set to be closed simultaneously this summer, + the completion of Hennepin/1st bikeways on the east side of the river, there’s never been a better time for the County to plop down some jersey barriers to protect riders in the dangerous Hennepin/1st bridge bike lanes!

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Legit beef about Stone Arch Bridge & Bridge #9 (U-area) both being closed this summer - as a biker I love them like family - but the 3rd Avenue & 10th Avenue bridges have had bike lanes dramatically upgraded in recent years & while not perfect replacements, do exist.

Another scoop from @peard33.bsky.social: DOGE installed Tom Krause at the Treasury Department. He's keeping his job as the CEO of a software company that has millions of dollars in federal contracts, including with the Treasury Department www.wired.com/story/krause...

Here are the March Metro Transit service changes! The big story is the Gold Line's opening. Between that and the need to add resources ahead of the construction season, the service adds are very limited. metrocouncil.org/Council-Meet...

Don’t panic folks, we have multiple proposals for additional demand subsidies in the California state legislature this year. One more round of down payment assistance will surely end the housing crisis.

I'm honestly not sure how to spell it, since I've only heard people say it aloud, but surely "bassist attack" is incorrect -- "basist attack" gives zero search results, though? (from "base" / "debase")

This was a really great episode, looking at a big contributor to the hollowing-out of rural economies along with the dearth of retail in many urban areas too

Incredible. Rail fans at LA Union Station heckle and boo Duffy’s remarks at the press conference where he has announced an FRA investigation into CA High Speed Rail. They yell “Cowards!” “Build the Rail!” and “We Pay Taxes, We Want the Train!” #IWillRide
