kind of confused why they'd do God Bless America to open the pens/flyers game. whether both US teams or a mix of US/Canadian, everywhere else i can think of always does their national anthems.

Oh wow. Apparently this signage was just retired. Call me a grumpy curmudgeon, I liked it before.

Send him to Moscow.

weird, given they’re also 3rd (in my books) just in pgh.

New analysis suggests that researchers moved the goalposts in their randomized control trial evaluating fare-free transit in Pittsburgh, making results seem better than they were.

West Portal crash: S.F. judge says driver who killed family of 4 will get probation Mary Fong Lau, 80, will face no jail time according to remarks from San Francisco Superior Court Judge Bruce Chan. She must complete 200 hours of community service and undergo probation.

Mary Fong Lau, the 80 year old woman who killed four people including a baby and a toddler after crashing into a bus stop going 75mph the wrong way down a 25mph street, has been sentenced to probation and will not permanently lose her drivers' license.

This is a despicable miscarriage of justice.

i love the intro this season, both for the subway schematic playfulness, and the tron-esque summation to the title.

there are some pretty cool transit related visualizations of the NYC area on www.anita.garden/projects/, just be wary they're very hi-res, so better to view on a desktop.

Just thinking about the County Clerks who are largely Republican (fewer voters, but in rural and smaller counties) will go apeshit over this. They aren't geared up for this and it will require wholesale changes in their processes and they generally don't have large staffs.

What generation has the strongest argument that they are typically ignored? □ The Silent Generation □ The Baby Boomers □ Millennials □ Gen Z

Image of Bad Bunny performing during the super bowl, he is standing on top of a white truck, which is surrounded by enthusiastic dancers with their hands in the air. Text overlaid next to Bad Bunny reads “telling my friends about the Feb 24 special election” and text overlaid on the dancers reads “my friends in HD22 and HD42.”

If you have a friend who lives in PA state House district 22 (Allentown area) or 42 (parts of Allegheny county - Baldwin, Castle Shannon, Dormont, Mt. Lebanon, and part of Upper St. Clair), make sure they know about the special election on February 24th!

so true!

i’ve never been to a jack in the box (and my only reference point for them is, well, e. coli). but there are some in ABQ, and the tiny tacos are apparently DF.

Thank you to the 1000s of @nycsanitation.bsky.social workers out there battling this blizzard.

i got annoyed that my trip to NM wasn’t going to win me much in the way of improved temps. but this blizzard seems like it’ll justify the flight.

just watched a manhattan bound G and F train skip 4Av-9St on the express track. nothing listed online anywhere to explain why. person at booth was completely unaware, advised me to go to Carroll, except i can’t afford another 20 min gap. @mta.info 😡

Please watch the whole video from our Saint Paul Olympian. It’s one of the most direct and eloquent statements about the situation that I’ve heard from anyone.
Proud to be a Minnesotan, proud to be represented by Rich Ruohonen.

so HBO Max has neither the latest Feride vs the World episode nor the latest Have I Got News For You (US), well after original release. almost as disappointing as the extensive delay for Hulu to get the latest Shoresy Season. sigh.

it’s funny fresh!

Very good news.

This is the minimal subway extensions that Philadelphia should build by 2050. Don't for less, ask for more!

lol, they typoed the company name of all possible things.

and finally, i'm not sure why, but when i press <tab> in Apple's Terminal, the partial opacity/blur setting i have just unsets, or i guess more precisely it "toggles" between on and off. it's quite annoying.
