Great to see this crucial project rolling ahead! Better public transit makes life better for everyone, and adding car lanes makes traffic worse and increases carbon pollution. Where do you want public funds to go?

โIn Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.โ IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

i feel like the viral bus thread resonates because at every step of the way you're like "ok surely this will be resolved shortly, any second now," which seems like what all the passengers are also thinking. then the fact that the situation doesn't resolve and the bus just keeps going is an Allegory

As
@davidzipper.bsky.social
notes, Waymos have driven 127 million miles, and been involved in 2 fatalities. That's twice the rate of human-driven cars. And they have yet to deploy at scale. Their glitches often interfere with public transit.
