Chasing the shiny bits in the dark. Punishing my legs for not being rocket packs. Passionate about density, transit, walkability, and cycling infrastructure. Recovered “avid cyclist”. Big YIMBY. Capitol Hill but I’m not cool and only have one tattoo.

You might need to rethink that…

One more after that and they’ll reinvent the train.
We’re going to need a bigger meme.

What a sad, power hungry, small minded man.
Ah, yeah, that info isn’t something I recall anymore.
I can say that living there now car-free or car-light would be more of pain, as I’d have to walk ten+ minutes over to the 62.
I definitely think something like the non-x 26 should come back.
That’s a big transit hole.
Not an authority, but I regularly used the 26 from 2010 to 2018 between Tangletown and Downtown.
I can likely answer some questions on its route.
Looks like a teenager in 1997 who would get followed around a Kroger by security.
Except he’s a middle aged man. In 2025.
I can’t believe our fascist takeover is from such dorks.
If I was writing a satirical news story about a bunch of NIMBYs at a community design meeting, I wouldn’t write a character this rote.
Amazing that we let people with so little to say have so much power.
Drivers will never stop being takers unless we make them pay what car infrastructure actually costs.

Drivers crash into shit constantly. Why would we not put something down that had the weight to not get pushed around so easily?
Are these things bolted down in some way?

I live in an apartment. I do not own garden tools like shovels and rakes. I do not have a place to store them if I did own them.
This post is so incredibly SFH coded 😅 I would be happy to contribute my labor, but you need to supply the tools.

Are we really giving him credit for NOT killing or watering down some projects?
