Thank you.

(I have stealth ways to do the same while driving the bus.)

We likely are working. Getting to or from the bus we’re driving.

It’s such a surreal experience riding a bus after unlocking a new skill: operating a bus. I appreciate it much more and at the same time am harder and more annoyed by the idiotic shit.

Will try to make note of this tomorrow.

Uhhh. Did they not learn from executable code in office files? Or the whole ActiveX in Internet Explorer?

Funny thing is… the artics in most situations are more maneuverable.

A transit information sign showing information for the dates of November 18 to 20.

Hey @sound-transit.bsky.social if anyone ever accuses you of being incompetent. It’s because of shit like this.

This sign has been out at Stadium station since at least yesterday, even though it’s expired.

Reasons #17,654–17,661 that I love riding transit: I can chill/vibe and not have to focus on driving safely, I don't have to deal with asshole drivers, I can people-watch and city-watch, I can read, I can close my eyes.

It never ceases to amaze me the number of people who live in cities and hate everything about living in a city.

Senate Dems right now....

The stores agreed to those conditions to take SNAP…

Tbh, I wonder how quickly they can leave then rejoin SNAP…

Hey @crankyflier.com maybe Spirit needs to sell these to make some money?

Too much light.

Three persons in inflatable frog costumes. One of them is holding a nicely painted sign with two little cartoon frogs holding hands, below the text "FROGS TOGETHER STRONG"

Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

Other way around after the SOC. Hawaiian Airlines operated by Alaska Airlines.

Those are donor coaches for the new ESS upgrade. They’ve been there for a long time without the electrical box on the roof. They’re having to rebuild the electrical switching system, so they’ve taken those out of service to have electrical units to rotate through rebuilding.

Now I just need to do poke around getting the old school 14 back for Pi Day, since it'll now be a 3 interlined to a 14.

Seattle 2025

COMMENTARY: If this was happening in another nation, we'd call it by name. It's authoritarianism.

A much younger me riding one.
(Probably route 49.)

They were crappy buses!

I only rode em after they lost the diesel part.

It’s Labor Day tomorrow. It’s best to avoid the hospital since there will be lots of babies born there tomorrow.

Ya know the original tunnel buses had poles.

Or this one: a monolingual Anglophone nurse hears a patient speaking unintelligibly, assume it's delirium, until an L2 English speaking nurse recognises the language. The dying person isn't babbling; they've reverted to a mother tongue at the end of life.

Why I do what I do: met a former palliative care nurse & was describing how devout Muslims can hold up a single finger to represent the Shahadah if they're unable to speak. She'd never heard of this.

"I wonder how many times nurses see this, think someone is agitated, and drug them."

Shahada - Wikipedia

Since I had to look it up, from: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shahada

The Shahada (Arabic: الشَّهَادَةُ aš-šahādatu; Arabic pronunciation: [aʃʃahaːdatʊ], 'the testimony'),also transliterated as Shahadah, is an Islamic oath and creed, and one of the Five Pillars of Islam and part of the Adhan.

Seattleites love their summers, but it’s a little more complicated for parents. What if we had universal summer care for all children in Seattle? This isn’t a pie in the sky idea. We can make Seattle a great place for working families.

It’s missing its poles.

Buying a domain isn’t really going overboard. They’re pretty cheap now a days.

(Uhh don’t look at my @namecheap.com dashboard.)
