I think they'll just find out for themselves.

I'm looking forward to watching Zohran "test" the free buses specifically during a massive demand spike. No notes.

This deserves more likes. This is so grimly funny.

Okay, that is an awesome parody job.

Hi Alexander, on a 1-10 scale, where 1 is very unfavorable and 10 is very favorable, what is your opinion of the Democratic Party? -Titus Surveys. 10

No problem. This is a great illustration of why fiscal conservatives wanting to "rightsize transit to make it more efficient" is completely self-defeating. Cutting service by X% will cause ridership to drop by even more than X%, making bus service even less financially efficient than before.

Wait, Kezi, are you sure there has been a 44% reduction in bus service hours since 2019? I'm getting 37% reduction. Still bad ofc!

(Yes, I'm aware that the law splits them into speed classes but even that part is has been designed for maximum stupidity.)

Wow, take the sponsorship! Huge improvement over slinging Better Help subscriptions. That thing looks kinda rad. Can't wait to ride it in bike lanes in New Jersey since legally, it's the same as e-bikes!

Second one is great. Serious face. Silly sweater.

Ding, ding, ding! You beat me to it.

Like, I swear that somewhere back in the recesses of the maga mind, it must occur that federal officers covering up their license plates and faces will cause bad things to happen.

Saw this ICE vehicle drive by me in Baldwin Village at 1pm. (People over Papers understandably rejected my report because there wasn't enough info.)

But look at that license plate! Totally covered up. In my America, cops only do this to avoid parking tickets and turnpike tolls.

5 versatile debate tactics to win every time:

1. "You're putting words in my mouth."

2. "I never said that."

3. "You're completely mischaracterizing my argument."

4. "That's a strawman!!"

5. "You're clearly not understanding my point."

Here at Wilshire/Western, long, darkened test trains are pulling into the station from the west, reversing and hard accelerating back toward Beverly Hills.

It's so tantalizing.

Wow! That is just the delusional shred of hope that I needed. Thank you!

Is there, like, another option after you take war crimes back off the table?

🔖 Just gonna save this for later.

Yeah will be doing in the future for important stuff.

Psychologically, I would be willing to pay up to $300 to force the USPS to pay me back for sticking my package in a random other building and now refusing to tell me which building.

The package is only $70.

Enforce the Fares According to LA Metro's internal estimates, 46% of boardings are unpaid. That's 12 million unpaid boardings a month.

Did someone mention fares on LA Metro?? Just dropping this in here for vibes enhancement purposes.

OpEd: How High-Speed Rail Could Reach LA by 2039...Without Waiting for the Mountains - Streetsblog California California high-speed rail’s biggest unresolved problem is not in the Central Valley. It is south of Palmdale. Under current plans, high-speed trains are expected to reach San Francisco by 2039 while ...

Guest opinion: Electrify the Metrolink Antelope Valley Line (L.A. to Palmdale at least) for an initial relatively cheap high-speed rail connection. cal.streetsblog.org/2026/01/29/o...

Wealthy New Yorkers Who Take Th... 17h X Why make buses free for poor and working class New Yorkers when you could instead earmark it for projects that will never happen, that might come online twenty years from now? Big brained urbanists! (not to mention the figures in the article are fantastical) sam @sam_d_1995•1d free buses are a nice perk but we should think bigger about how a billion dollars a year in new transit funding could truly transform the fabric of the city Paris is already doing it with the "Grand Paris Express", no reason we can't do it here in NYC too x.com/ericgoldwyn/st...

it’s kind of remarkable that we’ve reached a point where free buses (a tweak that will provide a marginal value to our overall transit network) is viewed as more progressive than a sustained investment in expanding mass transit in underserved areas across the city

What happened to Punxsutawney Phil’s Philly wife? A tail of love, greed, and burrowed secrets. When Phil appears on Gobbler’s Knob Sunday to predict if we’ll have an early spring, he’ll leave behind a dark secret buried in his burrow.

Wish I could've been back in PA again for Groundhog Day.

On this Transit Equity Day, let's remember that LA Metro's predominantly low-income riders overwhelmingly support fare checks and CoC enforcement, which have been suspended since the pandemic. @metrolosangeles.bsky.social could honor Transit Equity Day by finally listening.
