I watered my plants this evening, therefore, I expect a downpour in the near future. Hopefully @lhasacm.bsky.social doesn’t get caught in it today.

Hey @wmata.com @wmatagm.bsky.social I noticed the DX was missing from the bus route change sign at Georgia & Upshur NW. Is the 79/DX stop there being removed?

Just listened with @jlrhart.bsky.social to the full podcast & was reminded (& thankful) of how @chelsearsoronen.bsky.social, @handlebarsdc.bsky.social, Riotpedestrian, & countless others created such joy & a strong demand for change in some of the darkest days after Allie was killed.
CHALK RIOT: Leveraging a Radical Past for Traffic Calming in the Present - @chelsearsoronen.bsky.social, founder of Chalk Riot, provides a brief history of the use of chalk in social movements and hints at how she got involved in traffic calming

In today’s ever-changing world, I’ve been looking for new ways to stay connected while living by my values. Facebook, Instagram and Bluesky just aren’t cutting it for me. I hope you’ll join me in moving back over to Friendster - where it all began.

Thanking your bus driver everyday is fun and right, they work really hard and deal with a lot to get us home safely. For my 12th #TranspoBINGO square, I used my winter gloves to safely dispose of the trash on the bus so the driver wouldn't have to this time. 🚍

#TranspoBINGO isn’t just online, we’re out in the world. Volunteers - friends and neighbors just like you - have been helping us spread the word by flyering and leaving boards in public places like libraries and rec centers. We always welcome support reaching more neighbors! Contact us for copies.

What a great way to thank a Transpo Hero!! #TranspoBINGO
I’ve been singing his praises on Bluesky, so it’s about time I share them where they make the most impact! For my “thank a transpo hero” square, I filled out a commendation for my favorite bus driver using Metro’s form. www.metrostlouis.org/customer-com...

I think this could also qualify for the #TranspoBINGO carry stuff Olympics square 🏅
Fifth #TranspoBINGO trip, I'm tentatively claiming "Be a Transpo Over-Achiever (Car Free Week)" with this grocery run.
