@DE_Gifford Par for the course with him. He got apoplectic when DDOT was considering expanding the Seven Mile route to go to the Walmart on Middlebelt, even though it wouldn't have cost Livonia residents a dime (you know, unless they wanted to take the bus). https://t.co/U792wTimN5

Livonia City Council member Rob Donovic says he is “vehemently opposed” to DDOT extending a service route to 7 Mile and Middlebelt. The new service route extension was revealed this morning as part of the DDOT Reimagined project.

7-Eleven took away jalapeno cream cheese taquitos so that I would know I could live without them, they gave them back so I didn't have to.

@JJ_McCullough As a USA-er I think your videos helped me take Canada off my mental pedestal and made the place more tangible as a result. I would still immigrate there if the opportunity arose.

@PolarBarrett That blows me away, the worst I've ever had on a DDOT bus is someone asking me to buy weed. Time is 100% my main factor for not riding.

@DE_Gifford Slowed down to yield to several people who were walking their carts on eight mile instead of attempting to navigate the sidewalks.

@DE_Gifford Great spot for a venue/rehab project too. I'd chip in $100, plus whatever is in my giant piggie bank.

@PaulTheUrbanist Good shawarma on the other side of the street tho. I feel like this area of Redford does at least have some potential that hasn't been completely ruined by parking sprawl.

[My name is Steve @steven_jo]

Honestly, this one has me conflicted — I love this old slumpy building by the bridge, but dang that's a lot of deferred maintenance to address, but also I don't trust the state to do anything other than replace it with parking.

The fate of a Belle Isle icon is up for debate, and now the future of a centuries-old building could be in your hands. https://t.co/DsmVkTkX5x

@jon_bois Man, if it's Hays, I hope the reference Braum's and let you buy a bag of burgers and some groceries there.

Open invitation to anyone who follows me and wants a holiday card. DM me your address.

Seen while Black Friday shopping. I have a lot of questions, but the biggest one is: Where is downtown Livonia?

[My name is Steve @steven_jo]

@CuylerMeade Or at least they can be, if they have those things.

[My name is Steve @steven_jo]

@CuylerMeade Honestly they're pretty good if you use the bus or subway

Looking for work is hard work.

On this day in 1971:
Marvin Gaye's "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)" is the nation's top R&B single. He lived in northwest Detroit on West Outer Drive near Livernois at the time.

A while back, we publicly stated our goal of having 30K Twitter/X followers by the end of 2023. We're currently at 28,931. At this pace, we will not meet our goal.

We're not mad at you. We're just disappointed.

Mister Rogers had it down cold: after you get home, first order of business is to change into something comfy and then it’s RIGHT into total dissociation via the neighborhood of make believe

I don't think I still have self esteem issues anymore until I start looking for a new job — then it's prepubescent self doubt and needing external validation until someone finally sends me an email replying Y to one of my "Do you like me, Y/N?" notes.

Man, I would consider a much wider variety of jobs and career fields if they offered child care. Does anyone out there that knows of *any* metro Detroit job that offers child care? I looked into a trade apprenticeship, but it's completely impractical if you have a kid at home
