The number of total crashes during the start of congestion pricing in NYC is *even lower* than the number of crashes in the same part of Manhattan (south of 60th) during the pandemic-affected weeks in the start of January 2021 and 2022. nyc.streetsblog.org/2025/01/23/c...

On the other hand, I have the courage to encourage the Internet to use its very worst tendencies and use this very early data to confirm all priors!
If you'd like to make yourself insane about congestion pricing data on the literal first weekday of its existence (compared to first post-NYE Monday last year)

Subway: 3,428,678 now vs. 3,303,727
LIRR: 229,503 vs. 208,960
Metro-North: 202,575 vs. 184,150
Paid crossings traffic: 792,617 vs. 844,853

As social media cooks all of our brains to grey mush, the bad takes get both more prevalent and more boring.

Pour one out for the brainworm connoisseur who must subsist on thinner and thinner gruel.

Anyway, here's my annual run down of the year's worst posts.

Last year: bsky.app/profile/alex...
Honestly, I figured that Twitter would be dead by now.

But we've survived another year of incredibly bad tweets, and here I am again, sharing my 5th annual personal selection of the year's worst.

For those that live in or care about New York City and our streets, I give you the NYC Micromobility starter pack. Also, surprisingly a stellar general #urbanism pack, given how many world class voices we seem to have here...

If you ever want to know how car brained NYC is, we still let people drive right through Times Square, one of the busiest pedestrian plazas in the world, in multiple directions even. Welcome, tourists! Fuck you!

Brief announcement: I will be unable to access my computer for the next 3 days, so that I will be unable to make regular posts. As such, I will make "emergency text-only posts" for the next few days where I will present Mario facts in text form! I hope this is acceptable!

Bureaucratic inefficiency creating an opening for corruption: “In another case, a representative for an apartment building project in Brooklyn agreed to pay $7,000 to Mr. Santiago’s company and was able to get a fire safety plan approval — which then generally took up to 10 weeks — in 16 days.”
2 N.Y.C. Fire Department Chiefs Arrested on Bribery Charges
The officials, who oversaw safety inspections, are accused of taking tens of thousands of dollars in connection with building projects.

It's extremely unprofessional to stop playing a jaunty piano tune the second a notorious gunslinger enters the saloon. You're not being paid to let your surroundings break your concentration.
