Can’t wait to join the AI Mandates Reform movement in 2066.

No way. Barnes and Barnes (fish heads fish heads) is 1/2 Bill Mumy who played Will Robinson in Lost in Space and, more importantly to me, played Anthony Fremont in my favorite Twilight Zone ep. “It’s a good life.” 🤯

As North Carolina inches closer to transformative statewide reforms, local efforts continue to provide flexibility in parking mandates in Asheville. avlwatchdog.org/with-39-of-d...

Hey everyone! Remember how much good we were able to do with Covid stimulus? One wierd trick and we could do it again, probably twice.

No trillionaires should be the easiest mass political campaign in world history.

I don’t want to downplay the privacy risk here but you can avoid this particular terror by not driving which is similar to but not quite as hard as vanishing into the woods.

Who were Napoleon Dynamite’s parents?

I am almost certain that @pbotinfo.bsky.social adjusted the signal at SE 39th and SE MaiN to give more time to cars speeding north and south and, as a result, making pedestrians and cyclist, wait even longer at one of very few safe signal crossings of that car sewer.

Why is the @trimet.org 15 on a reroute for multiple hours and it’s not a service alert?

The City of Bridges is putting Bridge City to shame here with combined city, county, and state funding of $5.3M to expand bike share in Pittsburgh. Meanwhile in Portland... we sure have a lot of scooters! I guess. www.axios.com/local/pittsb...

What I would give to have a candidate like Nithya Raman to vote for. Angelenos who "aren't happy with their choices" are telling on themselves.

Nearly the entire Portland Metropolitan Area is free from the scourge of costly parking mandates!

Yesterday, Vancouver, WA, USA adopted a comprehensive code that eliminates parking minimums citywide! Vancouver joins at least 111 cities in the USA to have done so. Welcome to the club!

Congestion pricing, even at a low $ intro level, has been a huge success in NYC. All US cities need it now. Waymo will be a tiny % of VMT for years. No firm timeline for any private AVs. It would be awful for drivers to think VMT fees or congestion pricing are only needed if/after AVs are common.

I love that we’re all concerned with VMT. 100% of the VMT in Portland is human driven. Let’s cut it in half.

Monday to Friday 50% of my road miles are deadheading (driving to/from daycare without my daughter in the car). We should probably treat human deadheading the same way we do AV deadheading.

Why isn’t this the campaign in Portland?

Folks, if you’re talking about platner having a fake tattoo cover up you might need to take a break.

Definitely looking forward to what happens after a Spurs vs Knicks finals. (Lakers three peat)

Waymo and e-moto panic are both symptoms of our society’s unwillingness to take basically any effort to curb excess and reckless driving. Unable or unwilling to deal with the real problem we zealously attack what we can, like dumping a gallon of water on a match while the house is burning.

Spineless cowardice.

LFG, Lindsay! 🫡 “Everyone wants free, convenient, available parking and in a growing, thriving downtown that doesn’t exist. Any place worth its salt will have a parking problem."

I ordered Time-Life Mysteries of the Unknown books (COD) from Prodigy. Does that count?

I just watched 15 minutes of videos of a Florida woman who gets up every morning and films herself driving to Dunkin’ Donuts for a small hot coffee with 5 shots of cream and 5 sugars and she also shows off how many plastic bottles of water she drinks and I kinda wanna die now.

Correct me if I’m wrong here but most airports aren’t actually in the jurisdiction of the city that is the supposed sanctuary.

TBH, I did not realize all the freaking PARKING garages hadn't been cut to save money. How is it that parking is more important than actual transit service? Oh right. Because hardly anyone on the Sound Transit board or senior leadership depend on transit service (most of them hardly ride at all).

I'm from everywhere/anywhere and I hate free parking.

The USPS "optimized" our neighborhood route. Our street was taken off the route of our letter carrier for 17 years and gave it to a new carrier. We haven't gotten mail in three business days.

Sometimes the best success you can hope for is a graceful failure. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

It's important that we understand the root cause of traffic congestion! #Motonormativity Via @davewalker.bsky.social

Every American family should have access to a quality e-bikeshare system in their city or town. electrek.co/2026/05/18/w...

Not having a car is hard but in the end it definitely saves you time driving kids around and dropping them off. Your kids will be independent, street smart, healthy, and more motivated to move out.

I’m at the Montavilla farmer’s market and the failure of the city to manage the car situation here is pathetic.

I think the only person who can fix this is the President and he needs to fix it in person.

Why pretend you're in Paris, enjoy the parking lot on its own terms. www.wweek.com/food/2026/05...

Terrible.

A lot of people drink way too many mimosas and now we're being punished for it! www.sfgate.com/food/article...

Don't let your FOOD EDITOR write about transportation. www.sfgate.com/travel/artic...

I haven’t watched Blanche much but we basically have a Tim Robinson sketch for AG.

What Trump has done in 15 months has been a miracle (for China and Russia).

No Trump supporter deserves to be taken seriously. abcnews.com/US/trump-poi...

I think that nearly anything that can convince portlanders to drive less is a valid use of PCEF funds.

If only this were an actual trade off… apple.news/AQFTtWiV6SAS...

The two most unpopular things in Portland at odds.

Live shot of Patel tryna dodge a simple question.

I have increasingly less patience for anyone who opposes this intervention.

folks on here were SO WORKED UP about Waymo admitting that it might do pick-ups/drop-offs in bike lanes from time to time, like literally every other ride hail/delivery service, but like... Tesla actually programs its cars to speed and tells local regulators to stfu because it's for safety
