It also just makes you look craven, voters do not believe you and they shouldn’t. You cannot actually beat Republicans at their own game and at a time when we have almost everything on our side heading into the midterms

The idea that we shouldn’t tax middle class and even rich people coming from Democratic politicians and interests groups this week is alarming and gross frankly. We should be a party trying to use government resources to help power our economy and lift people out of poverty not a race to the bottom

I don’t get Baldwin or Hirono here. The rest just kind of suck

This should be NYC (or CTA), especially given the numbers moved, but it just frankly isn’t

Seattle has the best and most serious bus operation in the US and I don’t think it is close

This line is very good. Would be even better as a trolleybus though

Single-handedly going to drive KCM G Line ridership to an all time high with my 8th trip of the day on it so far as I do the bus version of pacing about today

Enjoying my favorite pastime, multiple deicing baths on the tarmac in Juneau as we sit 🫠

Straight into my veins and make it even higher

New London saw one Acela round trip well into the 2010’s and it was useful. The cancellation of 2151 remains shitty frankly

Not for Acela ridership for sure. Regional at BWI does get some real usage to/from the airport mostly because MARC’s service is bad and the prices are often comparable

I would be a little skeptical of the 128 numbers tbh. I always book to/from BOS no matter what but often got on/off at 128 depending on changing plans

When that sub-fleet is dedicated to a line that serves more than half the riders and should arguably be an even larger % it starts to make a lot more sense πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Someone make them in N Scale already ffs

Ah alright I forgot they had released it in HO at one point

Yes, have for a few years! (This will hopefully not be true that much longer)

Lmao I get 1,138 hours of sunshine on average here in Sitka

Seeing it πŸ˜‚. It’s also really cheap on miles since it is intra-Alaska travel for us

Really Utqiagvik these days, but the airport hasn’t changed the name. Planning on being there for 40 hours, seeing midnight sun, the museum there and the northernmost point in the US

RIP UK travel plans that already had to die an unceremonious death when a funeral was moved to a different date

The AI part is so fucking weird and honestly feels like a non-sequitur

Also the tariffs really are having an impact. I’ve seen it both personally and at work in a way that is driving stuff down (along with general inflation of consumer goods in particular)

It’s not catastrophic but the revisions are going to take us slightly negative imho at this point. (Revising last year down a million jobs in the report earlier this week was frankly staggering)

We quite literally are in a recession right now (you watch when the next jobs report comes out)
