Llama Llama on the train
Trying to escape the rain
But llamas aren't allowed on MAX
No matter how good your llama acts

What if all City of Portland employees had to drive the speed limit at all times while using official fleet vehicles? Then @PBOTinfo could add graphics/stickers that read: "Safety Pace Car: If you pass me, you're speeding!" -- good idea? bad idea?

At the now infamous Portland MAX stop today there was a woman wearing earbuds, talking to no one in particular and, here & there, shaking her hips to the music. A couple guys asking for spare change. A teenage boy running across the grass with his backpack, smiling. And this.

White women gushing and taking pictures on the bus about how good their signs are for the march today...

I predict we will see transit equity in East Portland in 2048 or after the Great Seismic Event© (when the city recenters itself there of necessity) whichever comes first https://t.co/yQOokKaq92

In cities, @elonmusk's hatred of sharing space with strangers is a luxury (or pathology) that only the rich can afford. Letting him design cities is the essence of elite projection. https://t.co/gtSVgPkfPo https://t.co/CmCpoIJ5NE
