@DanGarodnick @MTA @GovKathyHochul Sounds like @MTA has plenty of money and didn't need the congestion tolls in the first place

Big news: @MTA & @GovKathyHochul today announced RFP from rail car manufacturers for the largest subway car contract in history. It would replace up to 2,390 cars on the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 trains. (That's more cars than the Chicago & Massachusetts Transit Authorities combined.)

@sungleeiq Are these American ships? No? Then perhaps the nations with which these ships are affiliated should grow some balls and do something about Iran

NOBODY KNOWS HOW FUCKED THE SITUATION IN THE PERSIAN GULF ACTUALLY IS. 3,200 ships are TRAPPED in the Persian Gulf right now. Crews are running out of drinking water. One ship called the local port authority and BEGGED for permission to dock — just to get water. They were DENIED. 💀 Let that sink in. These aren't military ships. These are commercial vessels — carrying oil, grain, electronics — with civilian crews who are now stranded with NO supplies and NO way out. – 3,200 ships STUCK ⚠️ – Crews running out of WATER 💀 – Port authorities REFUSING to let them dock ⚠️ – Multiple ships reporting the SAME situation 💀 ⚠️ For context — the Suez Canal crisis in 2021 blocked 400 ships. This is EIGHT TIMES worse. And nobody is talking about it. They're showing you missile interceptions and oil price charts. They're NOT showing you thousands of crew members slowly running out of drinking water in the middle of a war zone. If these ships start getting abandoned, the environmental disaster alone would be catastrophic. Thousands of tons of fuel, cargo, chemicals — just sitting there. This is not a shipping disruption. This is a HUMANITARIAN CRISIS unfolding in real time. Prepare accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨 X is hiding this. Follow + RT before it disappears. 🔥

@Tim_Walz Maybe The Learing Center and the rest of the Somali fraudsters can help you raise that $250 Million

The White House is cutting off $250 million for Minnesotans health care.

@reddit_lies @WilliamShatner 1. 2 long trips and you will spend more at a charger than I at a gas station. 2. Thats just copium for driving a mediocre car. No one who buys a Porsche 911 Turbo , a Corvette Z06, or any other high performance car worries about going to the gas station for a 5 minute fuel up

@WilliamShatner The average Tesla owner spends less time per year waiting at a charger than a gas car owner spends waiting to pump gas.

And for the #teslarites who don’t understand 500 miles. Time is money. How long does it take to pump a tank of gas? 4-5 mins versus 30. Early last week I went up to the Yosemite area (about 300 miles.) I got up there, did my thing and got gas (5 mins) and drove back. With a Tesla. It would be drive up (maybe on one charge) charge up 20-30 mins, do my thing. Drive back, stop along the way to recharge (again probably another 20 mins…) That’s too long. 500 would be one recharge so it’s 10 mins gas versus 29-30 mins which I would consider.🤷🏼

Very clever how they through Ilhan Omar in the mix. #HIAW 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@swyftcities Congratulations! Then no one is able to visit Manhattan or do business there.

There are a lot better uses of land besides car infrastructure

@kevinxu Tell him to major in Engineering. Much easier to change careers later when you understand at least one field of Engineering.

friend’s kid asked what they should major in college i almost cried what do you even say anymore

Japan needs you.

@vox_vis @EricEatsPickles This 2 lane section of I-95 is the choke point. Most of I-95 is 3 lanes in each direction. Some sections of I-95 ( parts of NJ) are 6 lanes.

@EricEatsPickles adding a lane does actually work, so long as there isn't a single choke point further down the line where the added lane ends throughput is always decided by the chokepoints

A Department of Transport doing the meme, like they always do...

@ClamTheOwO @AeroShard @EricEatsPickles You generally want to keep through traffic away from your back roads.

@AeroShard @EricEatsPickles The issue with this comparison is the reason that traffic increases for these two things is different. When roads can support less traffic then people choose to take backroads, when you expand roads then less people will do that and capacity will be matched again.

@hhusein_ja @AeroShard @EricEatsPickles Adding more lanes allows more cars to move along that road per day

@AeroShard @EricEatsPickles Laying more fiber optics actually help to reduce traffic unlike adding more lanes....

@Ofcom You dont have the authority to fine Americans. You will never get a cent from any American, fucking tyrants.

We've fined 4chan £450,000 for not having age checks in place to prevent children seeing porn on its site. The Online Safety Act is concerned with protecting people in the UK. It doesn't require platforms to restrict what people in other countries see. 🔗ofcom.org.uk/online-safety/…

@NYC_DOT Just like with Trump.... the pendulum will swing back hard one day and every single bike lane you made will be converted back into a car lane.

📢Big changes coming to Ninth Avenue! 9thAve in Midtown/Hell’s Kitchen will get wider sidewalks, a wider protected bike lane, and an extended bus lane to 50th St. This redesign will reduce sidewalk crowding, improve bus reliability and expand cycling infrastructure.

@saniyafatma1278 You can NOT do anything about his fence on his property. You can put up your own fence and paint it something you like.

I seriously need some help here. My neighbor just put up this massive metal fence right along our property line and I’m honestly pretty upset about it. It completely changed the whole feel of my driveway and now it looks like I’m pulling into some kind of industrial corridor. I had no idea this was even happening until the thing was already built. It feels like my space just got boxed in overnight. What on earth can I do in a situation like this???

@WilliamShatner You would need to design cars specifically for this. And the road itself would be expensive. Wouldn't be very effective over a 5-8 inch air gap (typical ground clearance for cars) otherwise.

If they built highways with magnetic strips in the concrete that allowed you to charge on the go; that would be a game changer. Aren’t the new taxis able to charge magnetically‽

@dahvnyc ICE should just starting pulling over every delivery cyclist and asking for ID

so now they are mad ICE can't disappear working fathers from their families for moving violations.

@HustleBitch_ The way the baggage handlers throw things around, it shouldn't be difficult to sue United for negligence.

🚨 UNITED DESTROYED THIS MAN’S 1962 GIBSON GUITAR — THEN SAID “NOT COVERED” AND WALKED AWAY He picks his case up from baggage claim and opens it. His 1962 Gibson J-45, a vintage guitar worth thousands, is completely wrecked. Cracked body. Scraped finish. The kind of damage you only get from being thrown around. He says it was inside a “nearly indestructible” top of the line Calton hardshell case. So he calls United. Their response? “We don’t cover instruments.” No compensation. No accountability. Nothing. Now this video is blowing up again as new clips show baggage handlers literally throwing guitar cases. So this isn’t a one-off. It’s the same damage and the same excuse. If they can just say “not covered”… what’s actually stopping this from happening every day? If this was YOUR guitar… what would you do?

@wydyama I do. Its fantastic. Even in traffic, its not as bad as people exaggerate it to be. Just means I need to use both hands to drive.

There’s no way y’all like driving manual everyday

@magyardemon @Lwm_625 @bort17 @cityaestheticss I am not a boomer, dumbass. I do have enough to retire in comfort and never work again. Its more than you will ever earn.

@B52Returns @Lwm_625 @bort17 @cityaestheticss jesus christ dude please get off twitter start looking for retirement homes and cash out your measly pension

Imagine if this were all one long park instead of a highway

@magyardemon @Lwm_625 @bort17 @cityaestheticss Get back to me when a bus or train goes from my driveway to my destination. Oh right, you dont have a driveway because you live in the projects.

@B52Returns @Lwm_625 @bort17 @cityaestheticss fun fact a bus or train holds more people than a car and can have space for several personal belongings 🤯🤯🤯
