@SFMTA_Muni Was this collision a person hit by a car while getting off or on the train?

@BrandonHarami Are you also asking Connie Chan what her opinion is on this? Her west side constituency would 100% collapse if she suggested dropping charges for bridge protestors.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@MattBruenig @AlecStapp Also, should we be looking at the census Supplemental Poverty Measure instead? CA and MS have almost the same supplemental poverty.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@TheOmniZaddy @KelseyTuoc @noahsloss I don’t disagree that some sort of automatic cost of living/inflation adjustment would be better than this bargaining happening every several years. It feels a lot like the federal debt ceiling, and equally dysfunctional.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@TheOmniZaddy @KelseyTuoc @noahsloss I don’t know if I would characterize anything about this plan as “perfectly clear”. Are the comparison private sector wages local, national? For SFUSD, would the comparison wages be private school teacher wages or all wages? Private schools don’t require teaching credentials.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@KelseyTuoc @noahsloss SFUSD has a teacher shortage, notably with a number of TK classrooms with no permanent teacher. I think without the threat of a strike teacher pay would be lower and the shortage would be worse.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@KelseyTuoc @noahsloss The thing is, for SFUSD and other unions striking is their only leverage. SFUSD has done many strike *votes* over the last several years, without which their wages would probably not have kept up with inflation.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@KelseyTuoc @noahsloss The purpose of a union is not advancing public interest. And who is to say a demand is “reasonable”? Sounds like you just want public sector unions to not have the ability to strike at all.

@SFMTA_Muni This shuttle bus service is really delayed. It seems like there are two busses but they’re taking a long break in between or something. Waited more than 20 minutes.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@SFMTA_Muni inbound N train seems stuck at Sunset, any idea what’s wrong or how long until it’s fixed?

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@SFMTA_Muni what’s up with IB N Judah?

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@MHurabiell @SFMTA_Muni @MikeChenSF @JulieKirschbaum @DanielLurie @JanetTarlov Your idea would definitely cost more. The oak street quick build involves no paving, just paint and bollards. Cheaper and faster, and also a better solution. Have you been in the panhandle? Where would the path go? Right through the playground and basketball courts?

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@nicksummy @big_pedestrian And you could have googled that yourself

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@nicksummy @big_pedestrian Let me Google that for you: https://t.co/kRR2Yi5NoI

@MHurabiell @SFMTA_Muni What is a “finance expert”? Sounds like you’d like to just burn more money on consultants.

What would you like SFMTA to spend less money on, and how much could they save on it?

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@SFMTA_Muni the N train that stops at 34th and Judah at 8am this morning was 5 min early, and now this 8:10am train is packed. Doesn’t help that it’s a train with lots of seats.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@KelseyTuoc It’s funny because his suggestions get worse and worse through the memo. It just reads like someone who’s upset his colleagues are liberal, and the diversity programs make him feel bad. It’s obviously going to piss off women (it pisses me off) so no wonder he was fired. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@mattyglesias If you’re ever wondering why Ezra is more successful than you, it’s in part because he would not communicate like this. Using a word that has been a slur for the last 30+ years is beneath you, or so I thought.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@SFMTA_Muni Thanks for the reply. An announcement on the train would be good.

[Colin Downs-Razouk @colindr]

@SFMTA_Muni N Judah is stopped at duboce and church for 5 min. Driver hasn’t said anything (or speakers aren’t working). Any idea what’s going on?
