I need a @nerd4cities.bsky.social city ranking for this so badly

embarrassing. I want to believe this is an error from COTA's public records team (even after the recheck), but frankly I don't think the results would be much different anyway
Public records show COTA’s 12-member Board of Trustees took a whopping four (4) bus rides in 2025, according to public records obtained by The Rooster.

I thought COTA made a mistake when they processed the records request the first time.

Sometimes all you can do is make the world 0.0000000000001% less awful by being a good person and it feels very meaningless but it’s also the only thing that really matters

I like that this is framed as an online obsession not slowing down and not, like, framing it around the actual cars crashing into buildings
Central Ohio’s online obsession with cars crashing into buildings shows no sign of slowing down. https://nbc4i.co/49vjbe1?utm_medium=social&utm_source=bluesky_

Having only ever lived in Ohio and Maine, it didn’t occur to me until just now that there are so many states without a single lighthouse. Kansas must be littered with crashed boats on its shores.
here’s a lighthouse map for reference

100 Meters is very easily comparable to Look Back. But I think it touches on something more universal—not just for athletes, but for anyone with the courage to pick themselves up from success and failure and try again.
