Predicting 40 days without Twitter will be like wandering in the desert but finding out the desert is a much better use of my time.

@juliaguilbeau Julia, look at the map. The highway needs to be complete. It’s nature’s way.

@xnmader “To impute racist intentions and disparate impacts to a highway plan is to create a legal framework for objecting to anything, anywhere.” ah yes if we start objecting to infrastructure physically segregating the city we may as well be objecting to everything all the time

Scoffing at a well-documented concern about disparate racial impacts on an urban highway project is quite the look for a staff editorial in 2023.

Nungesser met Landry to make peace. Part of what they discussed was Nungesser's opposition to the Mid-Barataria sediment diversion to rebuild part of the coast. A bad omen for the state's coastal authority? theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/ne…

"Demonstrably false" stands out here for me.
Like, "we disagree with our critics" is one thing. Or "we think our critics are missing important factors x, y, and z."
"What our critics are saying is 'demonstrably false'" is another.
Also, if it's demonstrable...demonstrate it!

NGL I had a spit-take when I read a BRT proposal hit the skids bc of "traffic concerns." BRT...reduces traffic congestion.

.@onevisionary will make an official announcement soon about governor's race, but he clearly intends to run. 'It's important for both parties to have representation at the top of the ticket to engage voters across the state and across party lines,' he told me this week.' #lagov

PSA: Our job is NOT to be a cheerleader for government.
On the contrary, we're supposed to be a thorn, forcing them to justify their actions.
