I've never gotten diagnosed but have strong suspicions, dad and brother are both medicated for it. My undergrad experience was just struggling to move from one self inflicted catastrophe to the next.

🙏 I gotta get in there so all the House Sacramento folks can convince me to move there

We need to be AMP-maxxing. Get SMUD-pilled even

I sometimes forget enjoying trains and public transit more generally is esoteric. I know I have a handful of interests that would be considered odd to people but my friends and family bubble all kinda get what I'm about to the point I forget what's weird.

What is this supposed to mean? Does the west coast have a different conception of afternoon than everywhere else?

I don't remember the exact details but I'm fairly certain the SNCF goals were cast aside for legitimate reasons. The central valley has a lot of people, needs cleaner transportation options, and buy-in from across the state was needed to get the project approved with even minimal funding.

I for some reason have a spot in my brain dedicated to reminding me everytime I've seen a restaurant in the chronicle before

Coming back to this now that steyer has announced. I know he came out in favor of sb79, apart from that and his new campaign materials, I'm not super familiar with his positions. What, in your mind, makes him a solid choice?

I guess now that I've thought about it for a second I'm just asking them to open baypass up to the public and allow for short term passes

This would be awesome, I would love if they would implement something like this all the time. I would jump at the opportunity to sign up for a week long all agency pass whenever I'm in town visiting family.

I've been told they can have issues if they're held open too frequently or too long incorrectly, like putting your arm in before the doors shut rather than using the button.

One step removed from going after Conner o'malley. I eagerly await the day those in the white house start subjecting themselves to the trauma of his YouTube channel

God DDOT sucks sometimes. I feel like Bowser, especially since installing Kershbaum as director, has been on a tear with these car brained decisions

I recognize it's a very different system, mostly I'm just thinking about how much service has improved over the last handful of years. I don't expect the same frequency as my current station, I just don't want to feel I have to plan out when to leave my apartment like I did here much of 2020-2021

This is a concern of mine as my plans likely take me away from DC in the next couple years. The chance I end up making living car free much more difficult weighs on me.

WMATA runs great service, especially since the depths of COVID. BART riders deserve the same kinds of service improvements.

Surprisingly, at least to me, my library holds this book. Based almost exclusively on how many times you've referenced it, I checked it out today. Having semi-recenrly read The Browns of California, I'm curious to see if it scratches a similar itch

Former staff member of a closely related org. My time there pre 10/7 was very much general Jewish life activities, post 10/7 things rapidly degraded, nearly everyone there quickly lost it. Seperately, the overall vibe from senior leadership wavered between confusion and disdain toward the unfamiliar

Coming back to this later just to note, knowing the high probability you've already seen it, they just announced that the construction contract for the Healdsburg extension has been awarded

For that you gotta take the bus 10 minutes north of the zoo to the neighborhood around UDC. Walking around there is terrifying, forced to watch people at the Saturday morning farmers market with their $10 loaves of sourdough and their oatmilk taro boba, makes you shiver
