@MysteryFountain Who tf is voting from the bayfront? How do they cast their ballot? By heron?

[@monophonique.bsky.social @ADSRelease]

@BootsRiley It’s cute and flirty but K-pop and/or preppy Korean girl style

@onlyfanons Imagine the filibusters we could’ve had

Remembering fondly getting to vote for weed and high speed rail to cope with having to choose between a billionaire and the other billionaires’ sell out.

@M45805Media @Colin_d_m And a lot of it just reproduces the lines we had, particularly in the ‘40s version

@FleischmanMena @lemmingstribes Absolutely not. The bus agencies can’t fix anything because cities can just say no. San Francisco is the one exception because they’re a City and County and they merged parking, sidewalks, and buses into one in the 90s. Oakland is individually getting good fast, but not neighbors

Iconically an LA thing but we have similar confusion in the Bay, too. South Fair Oaks isn’t incorporated because it’s Little Michoacán. But Emerald Hills isn’t incorporated because they have estates. #CancelPiedmont

A lot of people discovering if you live in Burbank, Pasadena, West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, or Santa Monica, among other places, you cannot vote for L.A. mayor. A lot of other people will soon discover they live in a random unincorporated area and can't vote for L.A. mayor.

@JepsenZander @art_pleb @allgarbled Oh interesting. Hadn’t read this part. I’d mostly seen splitting off SMC from SF was mostly a back room deal.

[@monophonique.bsky.social @ADSRelease]

@JepsenZander @art_pleb @allgarbled Not publicly. The pushback was primarily San Mateo estate owners not wanting to be governed by the city.

@barakgila @themtorres @Caltrain And a ton more grade separation needs to happen before allowing 120+ mph.

[@monophonique.bsky.social @ADSRelease]

@barakgila @themtorres @Caltrain No, we don’t have the passing track necessary to not cut local service and welcome in HSR.

[@monophonique.bsky.social @ADSRelease]

@barakgila @Caltrain And parts of that are fine! The entire Embarcadero used to be part of the freight network. And you can still see spurs in San Carlos and Redwood City. Much of that should’ve been electrified and kept. Even the newer “TOD” is more car dependent than that was.

[@monophonique.bsky.social @ADSRelease]

@barakgila @Caltrain “mass timber” 🤢
If we’re going to build, make something nice. But you severely misunderstand what Caltrain is. It was always primarily a freight corridor, with trips for the well off. The working class corridor, El Camino, had a streetcar and SF-like density around it.

@Mike_from_PA @Dickcheneydem If you’re right, this is clearly an ineffective way to organize and make the point. Go fix the Fetterman situation and let the locals deal with ours.

[@monophonique.bsky.social @ADSRelease]

@Mike_from_PA @Dickcheneydem Look in a mirror, Mike. This isn’t organizing. You’re vote scolding like Harris supporters. You didn’t answer the question. You’re *choosing* to disorganize instead of go through party structures.
