I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country

@BayAreaClipper @SFMTA_Muni This is crazy. What's wrong with you? You've fallen so far. First you stopped showing us our balance when we tag on/off, claiming we can see it in real-time online (not accurate), now we can't see it online either? Get your act together.

@Boenau Occasionally peds do come from nowhere. There is a stop sign near me because drivers cannot see around a big wall and even going very slowly and giving way is too risky to peds. To make driving 100% safe cars need to stop before passing parked lorries and vans - not realistic

The "pedestrian came out of nowhere" because the person driving was driving too fast.

@TonyBravvo @SFBART Assuming you meant noise inspections. How do they measure? Where are the results? And then what? Not like they're gonna change anything...

@launchpat @SFBART BART does regular nose inspections. It’s nowhere near as loud as the London Underground and the older lines on Tokyo Metro. Not even close.

@TonyBravvo @SFBART Every time I've ridden has been deafening. I'm really not sure what you're talking about. Maybe you've come to accept it without realizing it.

@launchpat @SFBART I rode BART a few hours ago. It was completely quiet. Have you ever ridden BART, dude? What you’re saying simply doesn’t match reality.

@NoCyclopathTO @Boenau There's no way your account is real. Definite satire/parody. And you've never made any cyclist cry, ever. Not even once.

@anthonyb_078 @TonyBravvo @SFBART Sure, but that's not the point. We shouldn't have to. Poor design to begin with. Even much older NYC subways are often much quieter. With much better insulation/isolation.

@launchpat @TonyBravvo @SFBART And if you still have problem with noise, just wear earphones or headphones, so many people do that on board the train, and if you have noise cancelation, it's cut out a lot of the Bart sound, especially in tunnels.

@launchpat @TonyBravvo @SFBART Not really true, the deceleration is very smooth, I rarely hear wheel screech on BART these days, maybe except when there is a flat tire but that's very rare. The new trains sound way quite compared to the old ones, especially when outside.

@TonyBravvo @SFBART Lollllll. Have you ever ridden BART? Very very obviously the new wheels still screech. Whatever they might've done didn't do much at all. And there's almost zero sound isolation - absolutely terrible design.

@launchpat @SFBART It was. They have new trains with double the soundproofing and quieter wheels that don’t screech.

@Boenau There is no one that “shares the road” worst than a cyclist. As someone who runs frequently in the city it’s the cyclists that are always the most inconsiderate and are constantly flouting traffic laws.

It's so annoying when a bunch of cyclists go on a group ride and slow us down.

I’m really sorry for the frustration this caused — that’s never the experience we want for you or your family. Because the free baggage perk only applies to passengers listed on your confirmation, your son’s bag wouldn’t have qualified under a separate points booking. We truly appreciate your loyalty over the years, and I regret that this situation left you feeling this way. - Tammi

Dang it @SouthwestAir I wanted to stay with you through all your debacle but today was the last straw. Charged $35 for my son’s bag due to being booked on pts. I paid with my SWA card. Still charged. I am done with you and @chase. Loyal since 1999. Bye. Hello @AmexBusiness

Hey @SouthwestAir way to treat loyalty. Booked flight for me/my son. Choose our seats. Check in yesterday with our seats. Get to airport today and you changed to put my son (over 15) in a middle when I booked window for both of us. Gate agent and CSR at 800# no help.

From day one of this administration, I’ve said that safe and clean streets are my top priority. If people do not feel safe moving through our streets—whether they are walking, biking, taking transit, or driving—then we are not meeting that goal. We launched the Street Safety Initiative last year, a citywide effort that brings departments together to address traffic safety. Today the working group met to continue this work so we can build a city where people feel safe moving through their neighborhoods every day. Thank you to Supervisor Myrna Melgar and our city departments for helping lead this discussion.

This photo breaks the misconceptions about people who travel by bike that they: 1.Don’t stop at traffic lights 2.Are a homogenous group 3.Don’t ride in winter 4.Take up the same space as 8 cars Anything I’ve missed?
