Freeing up memory on my phone. . . Wow! I have a lot photos and gifs in my text chats. . . Wow! I have a lot of gifs of dump trucks from 2025. #CalRaleigh #Mariners

Visiting Paris and rode in the first car of a 4 train, which is automated. There’s a pretend dashboard at the front that says this space reserved for kids. And these two were pretending to drive us.

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth! February is a time where we honor the Black people, Black moments, and Black history that have shaped this nation for the better. It is my hope that everyone takes the time each day to learn about a Black leader, athlete, or moment and share that with your community.

CMTA attended the #BetterTransitNow rally at Lawyers Mall in Annapolis on Monday. We asked @govwesmoore.bsky.social to expedite the @mta.maryland.gov BmoreBUS plan.

Transportation impacts health. "Luckily, policies like the Transportation and Climate Alignment Act (TCA) that will be introduced again next year by Delegate Mark Edelson and Senator Shelly Hettleman can help combat these issues." Op-Ed by Megan Weil Latshaw marylandmatters.org/2025/12/12/t...

Thank you Speaker Jones for your leadership.

"The density regulations roughly matched the existing density of each neighborhood, sort of, more or less. That was it. No science. No public health data. Just numbers written into a chart decades ago with the sole goal of preserving the status quo."

Congratulations to the Blue Jays. I’m crushed. But I was visiting Toronto in April when the team signed Vlad Jr to a long term deal and it was fun to see fans in the city excited. The team took off after that.

Mariners Blue Jays October baseball 😉. As a kid as we would walk the ramps of the Kingdome after a game I’d pick up any ticket stubs that people dropped. I kept them in a shoe box. Go M’s!!!

Speaking officially as the host of Jeopardy!, Cal Raleigh is the correct MVP vote.

Last weekend I rode the new Sound Transit 2 Line (East Link) through places where I grew up. Amazing to see the changes. I want similar expansion of options for greater Baltimore.

I commute on MARC into Penn Station Baltimore. Today was the first time I’ve arrived at the new platform. Nice upgrade to this gateway to the city.

“That’s a choice. We could choose to implement the MARC plan.” The 4-year spending programs for the Washington & Baltimore regions include >40 road and highway expansion projects (widening costs more than just resurfacing). MDOT is widening I81 and US15. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

Catch me if you can

I’m excited to see how the new routes perform, but part of me is sad to say goodbye to the L8 bus, the H8 bus, and the D8 bus. I laughed every time I saw them.

“I personally was pretty surprised, actually, at how efficient the government was,” Sahil Lavingia told NPR's Juana Summers.

It was a joy to watch him in the FIFA Club World Cup

OSS 117, urban planner extraordinaire. Based on the famous quote by @brenttoderian.bsky.social

What's interesting is that in 2019, Boring Co submitted plans to build a 35-mile underground loop between Baltimore and DC, claiming the project would be done in two years. Nothing of note was ever built and the co removed the project from its site in 2021: www.washingtonpost.com/local/traffi...

Sent my review of the copy-edited manuscript back to the publisher late last night! This is starting to feel real. Due out in February! #slavery #bskystorians

April 16 was National Canadian Film Day. My daughter chose Turning Red to watch together. I chose this. We used to beg our elementary school teachers to let us watch it again on film strip. www.nfb.ca/film/paddle_...

Important legislation. Thank you House members. Let’s go Maryland Senate!

Rallying for #BetterTransitNow

Appreciate the opportunity to spend the afternoon in Annapolis advocating for transit. @mtamaryland.bsky.social is an economic driver for the State. The Administration's proposed budget gets the agency back to track to providing safe and reliable service.

A sign on thus @wmata train asks riders to leave this seat reserved in honor of Rosa Parks on Transit Equity Day.

Giving buses relief from car and truck traffic can help agencies run more and better service under the same budget.

Great highlights (although I skipped when he started wearing pinstripes).

Two of my heroes

There’s a lot of water falling on the second train from the front at Farragut North station. @wmata.com

“I see a difference, definitely,” said Tony, who has spent 18 years as a bus operator for the MTA. “There have been no delays the entire week, and when I look to my left and right down the avenues I can see all the way down – I’ve never seen it like that.” nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/01/10/m...

Do tv ads with Matthew McConaughey ever make sense?

“Councilmember Hollie Huthman (Ward 2) noted she got into politics due to seeing friends being priced out of the city by rising rents. She also pointed to a case study showing the success of lifting parking mandates in Minneapolis…”

I was just talking about this scene from the end of Big Night with a friend. Almost no words spoken. And I’m not coming up with the words to describe why I love it so much, but I do. youtu.be/oerP7FRMWa8?...

More housing and jobs near Baltimore’s Metro Subway, light rail and many bus routes would help households save $, reduce pollution, and stimulate building more housing, stores and offices along the lines. www.baltimoresun.com/2024/11/20/m...

Didn’t see the game, but texts from friends and family and this ABMIS treatment were a fun way to experience it.

🚨Highway expansions funded by the 2021 infrastructure law could add 77 million tons of emissions by 2040. We need to rethink infrastructure funding. Learn how in this report from @T4America ⤵️ t4america.org/fueling-the-crisis/
