Hey, I'm Zombie! Welcome to my page! :)

I'm a big nerd for urbanism and public transit advocacy, which is what I mostly post about. I live in Los Angeles and curate a number of feeds that pick up chatter about the city:
- 🌴Los Angeles Metro Area
- 🚉Urbanism - Los Angeles
- 🧊LA vs. ICE

Caltrans District 7 has a proposal to add protected bike lanes to PCH in Long Beach—if you want to learn more or share your thoughts, join their workshop next week on Oct. 29.

Disappointing that the G Line's got a lil decline 😭 last few years the Valley generally has had good ridership increases YoY

having lived in Burbank & taken public transit there for a meaningful amount of time, I cannot stress enough how badly it needs better bus transit. the one time I actually took the bus there (vs. just driving 5-10 min to a metro stop) it was delayed for over a half-hour lmao
Working in the environmental field but opposing a bus rapid transit project and new apartments in your neighborhood should frankly get you blacklisted until the end of time
It's such a shame, I really want to love Burbank. It's got some decent bones being an older suburb.

I will say it's decently bike-able tho! Generally pretty well maintained roads, Chandler Bike Path, good residential streets w/ rows of signalized intersections to use as safer bike routes.
Take the DASH shuttle up to the Griffith Observatory. All the museums around Expo Park are good: Natural History Museum, CA Science Center, CA African-American Museum (also all conveniently next to LA Metro rail stations), just walking around Little Tokyo's Japanese Village Plaza is fun too

US downtowns are covered with car parking.

According to this new study, off-street parking takes up:
🔹 20.5% of downtown Dallas
🔹 22.3% of downtown Los Angeles
🔹 31.7% of downtown Tulsa
🚨 FEED USERS 🚨
Due to a bug with a node that detects NSFW images, post volume across all feeds has substantially dropped. I have temporarily removed the node, but in the meantime a higher volume of 🔞 content *might* appear in the feed. If you scroll at work: be advised!
Thanks for covering Charter Reform! It's such an important city process and it's not getting a whole lot of coverage imo

(We briefly chatted, I was the guy sitting behind the person from FairRepLA that records the meetings [I think Ross is his name?])
I made the mistake of opening Twitter. Saw a post from an LA developer (who’s also involved in a lot of YIMBY politics) talking about the “dark side of health care for all,” referring to a story about a drug addict receiving medical care. Just evil shit…

This was my fave from the Studio City, CA rally.
Some of these super annoying conservative-libertarian YIMBYs are gonna turn my very pro-housing ass into an anti-developer crusader...
United Neighbors presentation was really short and they were asked no questions by the commission
At the LA City Charter Reform Committee meeting about planning and infrastructure. Speakers include reps from LADOT, City Planning, Board of Public Works, United Neighbors, UCLA, and Streets for All.

Not looking forward to hearing from the uber-NIMBY group United Neighbors…
Words cannot express the disdain I have for United Neighbors
Council Member Monica Rodriguez is speaking now and wow I really dislike her. Not only is she a NIMBY on housing, she also carries that “no-oriented energy” about the activities of the Charter Reform Commission
Streets for All is giving a presentation at some point if you wanna come

I need to get a passport too but mostly cause I wanna go to CDMX

The cost for LinkUS has more than tripled in 3 years. Now, this critical project isn't fully funded and won't be done by 2028. This is what happens when you fund at 0% design- it gives 3rd parties, like BNSF and Vernon, opportunity to demand costly design changes. calelectricrail.org/against-patc...
This is like one of the most important transit projects in the LA area and every time I hear news about it, it's cause it got watered down, more expensive, and/or delayed even further 😭
