Reminder: Seth Moulton is only concerned about using people to be popular. If you doubt that ask your trans friends.

🫠 We're doomed. I saw this in Beaverton yesterday. "eliminating the unnecessary idling of personal vehicles would be the same as taking 5 million vehicles off the roads." (2015) afdc.energy.gov/files/u/publ...

This dude was a keynote speaker at the 2025 Abundance conference, along with Ezra Klein, Derek Thompson, and a host of other Abundance-aligned folks. Heterodox thinking indeed.

Just called it quits shoveling for the night.

My thanks to all the public transit workers making sure we can get around during this weather. Now has anyone seen how the battery buses are doing?

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Freedom units.

If anyone wonders where I got the last MBTA public comment from:

So excited to experience a 50% failure rate on chargers here @mbta.com

Dude's a hero

What if I instead FEMA just protected people from all forms of ICE?

2021 vs 2026 @mbta.com fixed the column I made famous with help from @mayahoman.bsky.social and @bostonglobe.com It was featured in one of board presentations in a list of projects that was made possible in less time by the creation of an internal engineering team. 1/🧵

This should be a new unit of measurement. I remember traveling from England to France and seeing the tidy british queue broken by people who refuse to fall in line. :)

"gallons of milk" is one of the weirdest unit choices I've ever seen or hope to ever see

Bottom trawling is horribly destructive to coastal ocean ecosystems, and deep-sea mining will do the same to the open ocean. #OceanFilm 🌊

I am considering the epistemological implications of bus electrification.

Question: why is that bus line you use that has more riders than my light rail line still a bus?

1979 report warns of warming world (C02 Newsletter, Vol. 1, no. 2) President Carter's science adviser asked top scientists to check if the predictions of a warmer world b/c of carbon dioxide emissions were accurate. They came back with a firm "hell yes." allouryesterdays.info/2026/01/20/1...

A greeting card for my Bluesky friends

Here’s a prompt: make something yourself. The DRAW Program now includes 11x17 prints, stickers, and magnets. #noai

Did we really need a study? I thought this was Econ 101.

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

Latest newsletter from @mikeconnollyma.bsky.social is a refreshingly honest, comprehensive, yet achievable set of things we should be doing in MA to fight ICE. Worth a read. www.repmikeconnolly.org/9_things_the...

I miss when ICE vehicles just meant internal combustion vehicles.

I think I can hear like all the trans people I know sigh in complete non-surprise.

No context what so ever...

What stopped consolidation conversations (and this article) often miss is that it only works on route segments with high dwell percentages. On segments where most stops have way fewer dwells than departures, closing a stop just moves the delay to the next block AND makes the person walk farther.

I eagerly await the day Boston can see the DCR public bathrooms along the emerald necklace reopened. I have been trying for a few years to get the MBTA to place signs in their elevators pointing out the location of the closest public restroom.

This is really smart policy, and it's also good to see Mamdani and the Council President partnering on something early. They may not be aligned on everything, but good politics is maximizing the delivery on what you agree on.

Whelp, I was already making a video essay on it and was going to release it tomorrow, but because Stephen Miller had to open his fascist mouth about Star Trek, I added to it and released it today. So enjoy me clowning on conservative assholes terrible Star Trek opinions - youtu.be/3HOzBtDUlbo

#NuclearPower bro dumped diesel into a wood stove that exploded and set his buddy and the house on fire. This is what the Trump regime is funding while demonizing #solar. #Nuclear #AtomicEnergy

Some people were confused by my ICE post. This should clear it up.

Put ICE down the "Cop Slide." I want a snow cone!

This is also a loss for the history of computing history.

What does Chicago have against benches? I have been through a few of their train stations and they are all like nearly benchless. It really pushes people away from spending any time there.

Montreal already charges owners of big SUVs more to park. It’s a very sensible policy.

As we observe Dr. Martin Luther King. Jr’s Birthday and weekend, let’s do so in beloved community. Explore these events happening across the city and bring your family, friends, and colleagues!

A new extreme sport. How many minutes of the PBS News Hour from yesterday can you watch? www.youtube.com/watch?v=umb4...

He should leave office after his remarks about the trans community but his bill can stay.

Almost every woman I know had trouble getting out of bed for a few days or weeks after Nov 8, 2016. A lot of people said we were being hysterical (in the original sense of the word). But we knew what a government run by abusers would be like.

What the fuck... How is this ok? www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qqbt...

Hey California are you listening? The rich people threatening to leave. Yeah they are stuck with you if you do this.

I am hoping Scott Adams is being chased around the after life by this horrifying beast.
