I’m tired of hearing about SB 79.

FREE 🚍🚊🚲🚐 RIDES on Wednesday, Oct 1, for California Clean Air Day Help reduce smog by taking transit 🌆 Bike share code: code 100125 Micro code: CleanAir25

Check out the @rifftrax.com for "Guns of El Chupacabra" for a scene shot in Union Station back when you could only take the @metrolosangeles.bsky.social Red Line to Wilshire/Western station.

I actually like streetcars. I just hate that they have to share traffic with private vehicles. If they could run in their own dedicated lanes, they would be much nicer to have.

Silent Hill f ads at Little Tokyo @metrolosangeles.bsky.social station

With Crosswalk Collective @crosswalksla.bsky.social I painted a crosswalk in Koreatown at a dangerous intersection where a little boy was killed by a driver. After we painted, a local artist came and added to it, alongside the little boy’s older sister.

Late stage capitalism at its finest: the school shooting industry

Every other X post is just this now

In hindsight, I’m glad they never built the Inglewood People Mover because now that the LAX station exists, it is clearly the superior transfer station to get people from transit (and the airport) to the arenas. Downtown Inglewood station simply doesn’t have that capacity.

The BART (yes, that @bart.gov) hosted a free anime festival today. I quickly 3d printed a few hundred Barty the BART mascot keychains and gave them away. I’ve never seen this much excitement before for US public transit and their mascots. More of this please!

Houston has 22 miles of urban rail in its metro area. Miami has 24 miles. Atlanta has 48 miles. Portland has 59 miles.

I actually kinda like gondolas.

RIP LAX City Bus Center

This bathroom is closed way too often. Feels like one out of every three times I walk by it’s closed.

score one for my place of birth!

I wonder how many people know what Metro station this is

I love this view of the railyard. Fucking dot pattern.

Starting to think Alt 6 on the Sepulveda project still exists because it was the original proposed alignment and CEQA requires a proposed project for an EIR.

SoFi Shuttle news: the free shuttle to all Rams & Chargers games will run btwn the LAX/Metro Transit Center & SoFi. The shuttle will no longer serve Hawthorne/Lennox. If riding C Line to game, stay on train to LAX/MTC! Your playbook to ride: www.metro.net/riding/stadi...

New Metro fare gate mishaps: - Saw a small child tried to leave through one and it failed to open at all. - A woman in a motorized wheelchair tried to exit through the gate, only to have the gates clamp shut on her as she was halfway through.

New bollards going in on Grand Av Arts/Bunker Hill station.

Anyone know why the city of LA has fenced off its public restrooms? Looking for an actual reason and hoping that it’s not just casual cruelty, even though that’s entirely possible.

Curbs on 4th/Main. Crosswalk. No ramps.

Update: 98th is open to Concourse Way

Opening date for A Line Extension has dropped! 🚊 Four new stations! 🚊 Connection to Metrolink at Pomona 🚊 Alternative to teeth-grinding 210 gridlock

Nice work @metrolosangeles.bsky.social! A whole bunch of brand new expensive fare gates and none of them are big enough to fit a bike through.

Over in the Arts District, the city is gradually making process on extending the curbs and making the sidewalks ADA accessible! They have even closed the slip lane (permanently?) on 4th Street and Merrick.

If you bike/walk/transit in Chinatown/NELA/DTLA please take the city's survey about making Spring/Alameda safer. streetsforall.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?...

All the gyms one way versus the other

Aviation Boulevard stripes going down in both directions. Bus lane paint also being added.

The irony that if CaHSR accepts private funds it might convince the feds to give it taxpayer money.

Well, this is something. A P3010 has a Pomona North headsign.

I’ve been informed that there are A Line trains with “Pomona North” on the head signs in service. I have yet to see one. 😢

Months ago we were being surveyed about a weekly certified farmers market in Little Tokyo and they said it would be mid 2025 but I have heard no updates and I’m really hoping it happens

After literal years of being fenced off, Onizuka Street in Little Tokyo has fully reopened.

I can’t believe the environment is collapsing after we produced all those impact reports.

Near LAX today and unopened 98th Street is getting stripes. I was hoping for bus lanes in both directions similar to what 98th west of Bellanca has, but it only appears to be on the westbound lanes. Upsetting.

😱

20th century billionaires: When I die, everyone will remember me when I open the Hubert H. Harumph art museum and 5000 acre public park. 21st century billionaires: naw i ain't ever gonna die

Detrans grifters are hilarious because it's always these queer white women who think the cisheteronormative society will like them for licking the right boots. Like when homosexuality is outlawed they'll get an exception carved out.

It really feels like the US is setting itself up to start a grievance fueled World War III where they start invading other countries for no reason other than “fuck ‘em.”

I guess no one informed Republicans that alligators really would rather not eat people when they live in ecosystems filled with fish, turtles, frogs, snakes, iguanas, and rodents. In other words, animals that are easy to catch.

Last week I went back to my childhood home, Coral Springs, FL, and turned on the AM station I used to listen to (610 WIOD) and it’s nuts how indistinguishable mainstream AM radio is from shortwave radio in 2006.

I’m supposed to GO Fest in this heat?

Baby’s first Brightline trip!

In light of Pride month I'm fundraising for Point of Pride, an incredible trans-led nonprofit that provides direct gender affirming care & things like HRT to trans ppl in need. Please, please donate any small amount that you can. Every bit makes a major impact! secure.givelively.org/donate/point...

Obviously, uh, other things going on right now... but hey taking a second to comment on the Sepulveda Line might give us some sense of agency at least.

Spray paint comes off, guys. Stop clutching your pearls.
