William Go, Irvine City Councilmember, has just been voted in as the next OCTA Board Member.
NEWS: Mike Carroll has resigned from the OCTA Board. Mayor Larry Agran will now have the opportunity to select the next OCTA Board member at next Thursday's City Selection Committee meeting.

Yesterday, my friends and I crashed the Great Park (Irvine) celebration by adding some chalk art to draw attention to a current problem lingering in our city. In summary, we need to add ground public transportation routes in an area that completely lacks that infrastructure. We don’t need gondolas.

But would I have preferred OCTA accepting TAP cards...yeah. Having a fully unified SoCal Transit payment system would be amazing.

It has been a profoundly depressing few months for governance in Los Angeles, but Councilmember Raman has really stepped up to the plate with principled and common sense proposals.
An awesome quote by Nithya:

I introduced legislation to strengthen CA’s protections for trans people who are targeted by other states, the feds or bad actors for prosecution or abuse of health info.

The bill also protects trans folks’ families, teachers & health providers, all of whom are being threatened by Trump & company.🧵

When I say I dislike living in South Orange County I mean to criticize the NIMBYs, extremely sprawled suburban neighborhoods, class exclusion & diluted personality of shopping centers due to the Irvine Company taking over them. I recognize my privilege living here but South OC needs more criticism.

I'm deeply saddened to share that Donald Shoup passed away last night. He was the ideal academic—curious, methodical, and concerned with turning ideas into real-world change. TAing his parking course these past few years has one of the greatest honors of my life. Rest in peace, Shoup Dogg.

For those unfamiliar with LA and how this could happen, the brilliant Mike Davis explained and predicted all this decades ago. It’s a painfully exquisite example of human folly versus nature.

The Case for Letting Malibu Burn - Longreads
Many of California's native ecosystems evolved to burn. Modern fire suppression creates fuels that lead to catastrophic fires. So why do people insist on rebuilding in the firebelt?

Why is that sometimes the minor that I’m studying is slightly more motivating than my actual major?

Guys mild take but there should be more mobility workshop events especially with kids.

Walk to school way was a great event in IUSD but it should have been more in depth to provide education about alternative mobility options.
