It’s impossible not to smile when you see @ChemBros #robots come out. So many unique elements in the show, but the robots are always my favorite. Thanks for the show and for bringing them along!

Bikes are great. But e bikes especially on the sidewalk are worse, even more so when you have entitled riders like these guys.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

Almost got hit by @limebike going too speed on the sidewalk. Obviously no enforcement from @limebike as that might impact profit.

I rarely do @Uber given the lack of safety from some drivers which makes it bad for everyone -drivers literally falling asleep driving into oncoming traffic-, and today the app is for no reason routing around the entire city double travel time. Best option is #PublicTransit.

@sherlyholmes @maxdubler Common denominator - no #KarenBass.

@hearinladotcom @bikinginla That's what New York does for idling vehicles.

Speaking with a @FlyFrontier rep who could not tell me what terminal their airline was located at at LAX, refused to ask anyone else, and instead had me wait 12 minutes to give a partial answer. Still unsure if I can skip check in at T1/T2 if I don't have bags.

@breakingdead1 @LaInaMinute Many countries have solved this problem. People just refuse to accept the solution.

🟣 Heads up, D Line riders: Wilshire/La Cienega Station is now part of TAP-to-Exit

❗ Riders must TAP when entering & exiting

🎟️ You won’t be charged twice-tapping confirms payment

😀 Why? Better safety, less loitering & fewer incidents

🚇 Your fares support public transit

Meanwhile while #LAbyKarenBass Part 6 happened. #LAFD worked fast and within 3 hours got things under control. @MayorOfLA Needs to go with all the people living in the vacant buildings. Thank you @LAFD! Windows closed and fresh air intake off, still filtering, but improving.

. @metrolosangeles @LADOTofficial
Only made it a few hours before people started smoking on the train. Security at the station but none riding the train.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@NaqiyNY Might be lower density directly on the sides but it drives that line right through the center of the city where no freeway can get close to, and makes it significantly faster to get to either side where 101 and 10 pass.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@BornToChill @LADOTofficial @metrolosangeles Correct. They are just drawing in people. Train banner said La Cienega as did everything else, and then we get to Western and it goes out of service. Missed an appointment because of the huge difference in bus vs train to Beverly Hills.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@LADOTofficial @metrolosangeles Not true. It is not open yet. I tried. The train ended at Western.

. @Sweatcoin needs to be reported for #spam. They seem to be using bot mail that has not stopped emailing me after I requested to delete my account.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@Sweatcoin Can you stop spamming me and just delete my account?

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@streetsforall @_KennyUong_ It is just like the fact that the paid @ExpressLanes are the WORST paved lanes on the entire 10 freeway for the #LACounty segment. @CaltransDist7 doesn't know how to page a freeway, and still LA County won't put barriers up for safety from toll evaders jumping in front of cars.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@jason61987 @KTLA We also have a terrible @MayorOfLA #KarenBass who shouldn't be holding any office at this age given she will not have to deal with long term consequences, as well as the fact that she is outright incapable of her duties.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@panic Any plans for SMB support in Transmit? It is significantly faster than SFTP when it comes to modern Mac OS.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@metrolosangeles Do you guys really just not want to help so much that you don't even send a response and automatically close support tickets?

No response at all, just closed. Yet I still cannot access any of my funds due to your ongoing tap outage.

[Mik Wix @TransRapid]

@metrolaalerts How do we STILL NOT HAVE TAP working....Several weeks now.
