Ren Gauge Portland! Thank you @19woodstock.bsky.social Don’t try this at home by the way I exercise railroad safety and also stretch first

Had to go on a lil excursion to ride the first Type 6 consist that went into revenue service yesterday! These vehicles are absolutely gorgeous and I’m really excited for more to enter service!

I look like this btw

Teachers in high school were really like “we have to prepare you for how serious college is going to be” and now I’m making 300 level gender studies students take the Buzzfeed “How Gay Are You?” quiz as part of a presentation

Ok now that there’s considerably more people on this app I’m gonna try it again >:) hiiii

Here’s my most recent map project: my reinterpretation of the Washington Park Free Shuttle map! I wanted to showcase service patterns, TriMet transfers, and other important information in a format that’s simple and straightforward. I’m pretty proud of it! What do you think? :)

Rode the entirety of the MAX Green Line today! 15 miles, 24 stations, 1 hour.

Here’s my redesign of the San Francisco Bay Ferry map! I retained a similar service colors while making the map more accessible, adding transfer information, and service patterns. The official one leaves much to be desired and I’m really happy with my interpretation! Let me know what you think :)

What a horrible take. Improving the conditions of communities everywhere is the main principle of the urbanist movement. I care about my community and I am not going to declare defeat just because much work remains to be done.

My essay “Moving Portland” is now published on Medium! It traces the evolution of Portland’s transit network and examines the forces that shaped it. Read at the link below 👇 https://medium.com/@19Woodstock/moving-portland-a-historical-perspective-on-public-transportation-development-9aaad9f21ddc

Immaculate vibes on the 75 tonight

Monumental day for lesbians

Portland Pride day 2!

Portland Pride festival day 1!

San Francisco's mass arrest of 100+ teenage skaters last week – predictably – is resulting in charged being dropped in all but a couple of cases. There was never any intention of charging. The city never does. So this is pure abuse of power. Using police brutality as extrajudicial state violence.

I wholeheartedly believe that becoming an urbanist has made me a better driver. I follow the speed limit much more strictly, I yield to more bikes and pedestrians, and I always give priority to transit vehicles. Driving is a much different experience when you don’t feel entitled to the road.

Can other people confirm this is the average urbanist Bluesky feed? >photo of old interurban >tgirl >furry >tgirl furry >photo of old Amtrak train >tgirl furry

418 up close! The phase 4 livery is going to look so good on the Type 6 LRVs!

Portland, Oregon made me polyamorous and transgender

Bus stop not found

I took a little walk along the Trolley Trail and ended up at the Orange Line terminus! I was able to hop on the train and take it back home super easily. Definitely gonna be my new go-to outing when I need to get out of the house for a half hour :)

the tl feed on here is crazy cause its like a normal social media feed but every other post on your tl is just trans girls flirting

Art show fit!

Y’all are never going to get me to say “reskeet” that shit feels wrong

Grimace, and why he ourple?

New addition to the transit card collection!

Yeah, I ain’t going to Threads

Friendly reminder that conservative trolls WANT to be bullied on Bluesky. They thrive on the attention. They want to be trolled so they can go back to Twitter or write some dumb “thinkpiece” and say how Bluesky is filled with intolerant liberals. Don’t give them the satisfaction. Just block them.

Born to be an urbanist, forced to be the driver in the relationship

Went for a walk at Tualatin Hills Nature Park today, completely accessible via MAX! More transit-oriented natural spaces!

Hello gay people that live in my phone :)
