Look, we all agree this is amazing. But we used to live comfortable in the understanding that you had to invite Chotiner in, like a vampire.
Now we know that Chotiner might strike at any time, like a velociraptor.

🎶 this is my Fight Club 🎶
Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

The only reason I can live car-free is that I live ONE (1) block from a subway stop in one of the more extensive transit systems IN THE COUNTRY. (And the oldest. And it SHOWS, they’re shutting down a big chunk of the core rail next month for infrastructure upgrades, gonna be a clusterfuck)
All of this thread. I love public transit. I'd use it more, except that there literally is no public transit where I live. I could not go anywhere, never mind do my job, without a car. It's simply not possible.
I am super-pro-public transit, and use it way more than the average American, but I live near a light rail station with very, very stable and predictable scheduling, and even then I would not use it for many things I use a car for because the cost of transit is time.
