Whut. I can’t believe that somebody who is theoretically a serious candidate is publicly talking about going back to that bonkers way of doing things.

Back then, did people just make piles of leaves in the street that stayed there for days until the vacuum truck came by? Doesn’t seem like a good way to do things, even ignoring the financial costs

I hope that’s playing on an endless loop in JAC’s “terminal”, just like at DTW

“O’becalp’s”

Basque space program

It’s car-brain all the way down

I saw him harshly reprove someone who criticized ElNel because they were “attacking a fellow Democrat”, as if the author of Prop C deserves anyone’s party solidarity

A street-legal kei truck would be so awesome

If your camera has manual time-setting I guess you could set it to UTC and just leave it there

I knew you’re my CM, but I didn’t realize that we’re practically neighbors! Just donated :)

He’s a complete crackpot, but at least he’s not a grifter

There are a lot of slowly dying towns in NYS once you get north of Rockland or maybe Orange Cointy. Calling them fly-infested seems a bit unfair tho

When he started complaining about car-centric land use it kinda won me over because it was so incongruous that it had to be genuine.

Wait until I tell my new neighbor with a “pause the plan” sign that she’s part of the problem! I bet that would go over well

Which CM are they whining about?

“Why’d you mention Taft twice?” *Blazing Saddles voice* “I like Taft”

Not to mention taking your agèd grandmother to a medical visit while also carrying 200 pounds of concrete in the trunk. Totally something people need to do on a regular basis!

Without the CSB I never would’ve learned about importance of safety precautions when doing hot work!

Long Island crashing into New Jersey is a nice touch. Can’t wait for the Jersey Himalayas!

They once made a whole PowerPoint presentation about fixing up the flowerbeds in the parking lot 💀

Yeah, it’s totally bonkers. I also think it’s gross to salivate over the prospect of the U and/or the city coming under severe hardship, but that kind of misanthropy seems to be pretty on-brand for the heavy duty NIMBYs

Based on some of his other comments, he seems to think that UM and/or the national economy are going to take a huge hit due to federal policy changes, which would then allow A2 NIMBYs to live out their pastoralist dreams or something.

Even worse than that, he wants the money for weird prefab sheds!

Woohoo, party in the Decadome! Glad you’re my CM :)

I’m so glad the Observer doesn’t have the resources to make a Results Needle

It’s wild how many of those boxes around the edge could be summarized as “rich, well-connected dipshits”

Judging by the date this looks more like whining/making excuses for her crushing defeat lol

Wait, who’s that? I only moved here a couple of years ago and (un)fortunately I’m not familiar with the deep lore on the local NIMBYs

I’d want one for “truck stuff“ – carrying 8 foot boards, picking up bulk orders of mulch, stuff like that. It would absolutely need to have a low hood and excellent visibility.

I have a Crosstrek and commute by bike, but I would definitely be tempted by something like this or a street legal Kei truck. How does the Outback and trailer combo handle when the trailer is loaded? What size loads can you put on the trailer?
