🚨100TH POST ALERT!!🚨 (for reals this time)
5/10 This tie is like one of those stop signs that has the flashing red lights to get blind drivers' attention or whatever the hell the point is. It's kinda pedestrian, but at the same time Drip cannot look away. It burns!

From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Shoutout to DOT for pushing for mandatory full refunds in the event of cancellations or significant delays on flights. Sad that the next administration won’t have the same priorities.
This weekend is expected to be the busiest air travel weekend in U.S. history.
If you're traveling, be kind to those around you.
And remember that flying sucks so much these days because of the greed of the airlines.

I, for one, think the new USPS truck is beautiful. Functional and worker-friendly is aesthetically pleasing.

Yes, It ‘Looks Like a Duck,’ but Carriers Like the New Mail Truck
The electric trucks have a side cargo door, more space and, critically, air conditioning, promising some long-overdue relief for carriers, who haven’t had an upgrade since the 1980s.

After a near strike by Philly area transit workers, PA Gov. Shapiro has secured an additional $153 million from federal highway funds for public transportation.
These funds avoid a nearly 30% fare hike.
Instead a 7.5% fare increase for SEPTA riders will go into effect on Dec. 1.
