I’ve watched this four times and will not be stopping anytime soon

Guess the metro system I tried to draw from memory, day 14:

The answer was: BART!

Honestly considering the number of people in fandom space who absolutely crash out if the moral isn't one they exactly endorse stated as explicitly as possible with everyone who dared act against it very harshly punished, indeed if they are even comfortable with evil depicted at all...we need this.

Here's a fun fact: one of the writers for Airplane! is responsible for popularizing the keto diet in the US en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...Firs...

watching Project Hail Mary, all I could think was "wow, my chemical engineer mom who likes gen X humor, dogs, and hard science fiction will like this movie even more than I do"

the real question is why are jeopardy winners disproportionately YIMBYs?

it's hard to exaggerate how gender "working class" is as a term because the focus is on manufacturing workers and *maybe* the trades generally. However, a huge chunk of the working class is in the care industry, and it's growing fast!

it is kinda funny how anesthesiology and piloting both are jobs where 99% of the time you're just letting machines do the work but you make your huge paycheck in the 1% of time where it's a high stakes, life-or-death emergency

Maybe they were so excited about this because they could use words very appropriate to describe themselves

the thing about a gas tax holiday is it's the absolute last thing you want to do in a real gas shortage. You want to do things that reduce the amount of gas consumed, not the exact opposite!

you're laughing Trump enacted an implicit carbon tax and you're laughing

easily the most heterosexual thing about me is that I know how to drive stick

Guess the metro system I tried to draw from memory, day 13:

The answer is: Copenhagen!

> tfw I missed by just a few years having an Amazon job that paid for $20k in furry commissions yearly and an apartment in Capitol Hill Why God Why

"Unhoused person" is kinda funny as a woke academicspeak because most normies find "homeless person" unforgivably woke on account that it acknowledges the humanity of homeless people.

"with AI, don't go to college, learn a trade" is just so penis because there's like no job growth in the trades right now, you really aught to learn to CNA or whatever.

The "latte libel" is insane these days because like my grandparent's tiny Michigan town of 5,000 has a starbucks

> 10 units per 1000 people construction > high bus ridership > light rail that should be heavy rail but the land use is good Close enough welcome back Canada

ngl the victoria line is a very GOATed alignment lmfao. They really were cooking.

it's cool that analysis now is just "is this an insider about to cash out or is someone having babby's first schizoaffective manic episode"

One of the biggest problems with people’s understanding of health policy is that people think “unhealthy people” are all fat smokers, and not, well, old people

tbh the funny part of "bullshit jobs" is how he constantly compares "Fake" jobs to the Very Real job of nursing, when I actually talk to nurses they keep on saying "my job is just to take care of people who wouldn't need me if they didn't drink 8 gallons of full sugar coke every day with diabetes"

Washington is hardly the perfect state but it is funny how it is like, the only state where you can get all the good things of blue states and only like 10% of the blue state brainworms

tbh a funny argument I see in favor of free/cheaper fares is that "when you have multiple kids driving becomes cheaper" Because like, ngl, cars and driving is perfectly fine if you're putting 6 people in an Odyssey! It's 1.5 people in a Rav4 that's problematic.

Congrats to everyone in spot 8 who picked the correct answer.

Waxed a little too poetically about the guy in San Diego who built 17 ADUs in his back yard in front of the normies

California Forever is very funny because it's literally just a Bay Area suburb but it's being marketed very well so it's producing Discorse™️

This is very amusing because Michigan is one of the few states where people's votes actually matter and the parties are desperately trying to pander to them. Seems like a skill issue on the part of the Michigan electorate

There’s an RN on TikTok who insists nurses make only $50k. Which like, that nurse friend who makes $300k is actually a CRNA, but are you in western Nebraska? No wonder zoomers are so miserable when this is their information environment

It's genuinely fascinating how many EU countries have weird, micromanaged, rube goldberg labor markets and the typical political actor concerned about EU stagnation thinks cutting income tax will fix that

Juan Linz was right

The answer is: Rome!

Guess the metro system I tried to draw from memory, day 12:

The real "whale ackschyually" edgelord take is that these protests try to tap into some deep anti-Monarchical sentiment but the fact is that the founders' opinion of the King was basically "@MODS @MODS @MODS @MODS PARLIAMENT IS BEING MEAN @MODS @MODS @MODS"

Every list of the fastest growing parts of the US are: 1. Hitlersprawl county, Texas 2. Hitlersprawl county, Texas 3. Hitlersprawl county, Texas 4. Link light rail-oriented infill, Washington State 5. Hitlersprawl county, Texas.

I'm gonna be honest, Zohran's superpower is doing necessary "neoliberal" shit (working with Trump, focusing on affordability over culture war nonsense, etc) while magically avoiding being accused of being a fascist quisling who hates the global south and working poor

Builders Remedy project approved in Beverly Hills.

first day on earth, can't wait to go to Trader Joe's <3

markets close for the weekend in 30 minutes

Why are people in my feed talking about the Washington Metro as some sort of success story of either construction or transit-oriented development? It's neither of these things. For a metro area of that size, 15% modal split for work trips is anemic, and the TOD is very small outside Arlington.
