It's funny how Mamdani actually is what the hallucinogenic Right always accused Obama of being: actually Muslim, actually born in Africa, actually a socialist
“Real World” star and 2nd biggest Moron in government (who the Moron-in-Chief picked cause he liked him on TV) seen here crying over one (1) lane out of 10 being used for pedestrians on the only direct connection between two of the largest counties in America. Keep crying, loser!
New York’s war on the working class continues. NYC’s mayor just removed a vehicle lane on the Queensboro Bridge. These decisions only further squeeze hard-working Americans who have to drive to work.
I thought they cared about congestion? It’s a lie. This is exactly why I’m fighting back against New York’s illegal toll —which is all to bail out a failing transit system at the expense of the middle class.
After years of delays, the opening of the Queensboro Bridge south outer roadway is a huge safety win for the 10,000 pedestrians and cyclists who cross the bridge every day. (1/4)
Every right wing male commentator has sex with men but has to keep it on the down low or else he’ll get canceled and every left wing male commentator has sex with women but has to keep it on the down low or else he’ll get canceled
@uncriticalsimon@the_transit_guy All these diagrams are based on the Vignelli map from the 70's which everyone hated back then and has continued to hate whenever they try to bring it back over the last 50 years because it sucks
You can’t rebuild an economy with tariffs when the factory’s gone, the workers are broke, and Wall Street owns the land.
China knows this. That’s why it’s winning.
Trump’s tariffs won’t rebuild the U.S.
It’s imperial decline wrapped in red, white, and blue.

@pbgomez_ In a better world, Hitler would have been an architect. He would have been a shitty, fascist one (so, like most of them) but instead we got the 20th century
@pbgomez_ Hitler didn't even really want to go to art school; he only ever applied because architecture school required prerequisites he couldn't meet with his limited high school education.
"Hegseth Accidentally Added a Journalist to the War Planning Group Chat" is such a banger headline, but it only really hits for a couple seconds until you click through and find out the journalist in question is... Jeffrey Goldberg
jeffrey goldberg refusing to dump all the text messages in the houthi signal chat is exactly why the natsec advisor had his personal phone number. it is precisely the problem w/ fake "journalists" at legacy publishers. they're stenographers for the state dept.
"But we're so spread out" is a classic excuse for American train-haters, but here at least it's geometrically accurate. Canada is one of the most linear countries in the world, their rail system has no business being as terrible as it is.
#NEWS: Canada's Federal Government has launched a historic $40 billion infrastructure project: a high-speed rail network spanning Toronto to Quebec City.
With top speeds of 300 km/hr, connecting Peterborough, Ottawa, Montréal, Laval, and Trois-Rivières along the way. 🚆 🇨🇦
