The Washington Post just laid off its entire award-winning photo team. They were our eyes in places we'll never see. It's a horrifying loss at a time when lying governments, propaganda and AI slop are on the rise.

there were paper transfers with the token system. as I write in my article an unlimited ride MetroCard could not be shared; you had to wait 18 minutes between swipes

Inside the Room Where MetroCard Will Take Its Last Ride The floppy plastic fare card is retiring this month, after three decades of production at this high-security facility in Queens.

ALSO! @stefanoschen.bsky.social went inside the high security facility where he witnessed the last ever batch of MetroCards being printed 👀 www.nytimes.com/card/2025/12...

The token had heft and weight, and, like an ancient Roman coin, carried with it millennia-old human understanding of what currency means: this for that.

The MetroCard was slippery, hard to share, full of secrets.
