People say there has never been a truly perfect Star Wars experience and that's how you know they never played the Ladder Map in Jedi Outcast.
Yes, it is scored to Prodigy's Smack My Bitch Up, and the song starts when you ignite your lightsaber and begin to move.

They keep adding more things as excuses not to plow. They could do half of the path and there'd be more snow for winter and the walkers and runners and cyclists could still use it, alongside the snow people.
One guess is maybe they just don't want to plow all 60+ miles

At the heart of every well used US transit system is a piece of infrastructure that was built over 100 years ago that you simply could not build today under any circumstances.

They've managed to do decades of damage in less time than it's taken me to finish painting my kitchen
In 2025, departures of govt scientists outnumbered new hires by a ratio of 11 to 1. This reduction in STEM PhDs translates to 106k yrs of federal work experience across 10,000 employees. These talents will take their expertise elsewhere. Experience is indispensable.

While many small businesses and residents have done their part to clear their sidewalks, there are large businesses ignoring the law.
When I’m Mayor, we’re going to hold these large businesses accountable!
It’s a shame our current Mayor has been too busy at an out-of-state conference to care.

RI knows this song: "entrenched government contractors like Deloitte had charged millions to build error–prone systems that state governments had no capacity to fix. Billing by the hour, growing the complexity and incomprehensibility of these systems proved profitable."
New at Can We Still Govern: Here is one thing I wish more people understood about government. There is a lot of rent-seeking by private vendors in our social safety net. Trump's policies will make this worse.

For all the fearmongering about capital flight from New York City, there’s an exodus few want to talk about: working people.
Sky-high rents and outrageous child care costs are already pushing families out of the city they keep running.
That’s what we have to change.
