honestly the fact that the only bus stop signage in the MUTCD (or: “how to lay out a road”) puts more focus on saying “No Parking” as opposed to giving transit riders useful info says quite a lot about our priorities as a country

it is vitally important to actually know what's in an article you post before using it as a gotcha. (is dropping citations too much for a twitter argument?)

because of a scheduling mishap, I have to attend a doctor’s appointment in my hometown in order to restock some meds I need, and of course that involves walking to Lincoln Creek because the first 80X doesn’t connect to anything from my neck of the woods. let’s see what other shenanigans I get into!

I've been working on a total rewrite of Pantograph.
I expect to ship by the end of the year, but I wrote up some (mostly technical) details as a preview: www.goroundtrip.co/posts/2025/n...

because Pierce has a fleet shortage on the Sound Transit side, ST decided to transfer two LFRs that were surplus from CT. however, this LFR is in PT’s dead/retired line. this is because CT subcontracts its ST ops, and the op barely maintained them and ran them ragged. PT is now stuck with rehab duty

Someone made this observation on Twitter re: Bluesky that I think is quite accurate, and is why I use both sites; I stay on Twitter because there’s nowhere else like it, both /pos and /neg; but Bluesky is where I actually post more since sometimes I need to “head back to the locker room” iyk

hey seattle, maybe it’d be a good idea to put a flight of stairs between this road and this bridge by the northern terminus of the 28 so we don’t have to walk all the way around to the nearest intersections

East Base’s fleet manager decided to do a big funny and deployed RapidRide coaches across a lot of its routes, as well as deploying standard coaches on the B Line. While most were trippers, only doing one or two runs in the morning, there were several that are staying on all-day, like this on rt 255

I rode RapidRide G and the Swift Blue extension to Shoreline before the sun rose on their first days. Unlike my early start that day, the video documenting the journey was fashionably late.

now that’s a unique way to send off your old system. I woulda kept the funeral, but I would have either removed the fire entirely or set fire to a car that’s been stripped for parts
