Like many creators, I’ve dealt with stalking that has threatened my well-being over the years. This instance was the most insidious, so I’m now pursuing a restraining order.

Stalking is never okay. Don’t be afraid to take legal action to protect yourself.

while Gavin Newsom is busy trolling Trump, Bay Area transit is *about to collapse* because he refuses to sign the 750 million dollar loan he promised in July to keep BART/Caltrain/AC Transit/Muni afloat until 2027 - but we can still stop service cuts!!

July 29 is my birthday, so can y'all pleaseee come to the Santa Clara County transit funding rally?

if SCC doesn't join the 2026 regional funding measure, VTA, BART, and Caltrain will face severe service cuts. so let's tell SCC officials - SAVE TRANSIT, JOIN THE REGIONAL MEASURE!!

good work y'all!
thanks to everyone who called, the legislature is including $1.75 bil in no-interest loans for transit (incl 750 mil for the Bay). but there's still one more thing to do!
call Newsom's office and tell him to accept the 1.75 bil and SAVE TRANSIT!!

If you live in California, read this thread, and good luck. Those of us in Chicago & Illinois are facing a similar problem right now.
So here’s where you can help - the California state budget is being finalized imminently. If you live in CA, call state representatives and tell them to support 2 billion dollars for statewide transit funding in the budget!

calling is super easy, takes <5 min!

Recently, there’s been a lot of online discourse on the cost of Bay Area transit. So let’s talk about why transit in the Bay Area is so expensive to ride 🧵 (1/10)

Advocates have been saying this exact thing would happen for years now but we now have the data to confirm: these cars were never meant to drive more safely than humans. They were just supposed to make big tech more money.
The behavior of Waymo’s self-driving taxis has apparently shifted in recent weeks or months, based on safety data collected by the company, and it means the cars are doing certain things more like real people do behind the wheel. buff.ly/O67rtMi

i've updated my BART disruption map based on recent service changes and to be easier to understand!

were igloos ever used in 1.14/1.15 speed runs? seems like they could be useful, cheap cleric trades so you don’t have to spend as long getting wood for stick trades

Last Friday (5/9), a computer issue suspended all BART service from before 5am until after 9am. While service was restored before the end of the morning rush, the resulting traffic impacts were felt for the rest of the day, showing just how important BART is and why we need to protect its future 1/5

it was wonderful to take state assemblymember bauer-kahan on a bus ride along with @transbaycoalition.bsky.social and talk about the importance of state level transit funding!! transit agencies across the state are relying on the state budget to include $2 billion for transit operations

Really bad take from where I sit (behind the wheel of a bus) because so much of the skill of an operator relies on human skills like intuiting the intentions of other humans. A surprising fraction of my work is reading faces, body language and gestures.
My personal idea of paradise would be abundant bus services with well-paid contented human drivers.

But the challenge is real. It's hard to hire enough drivers, and expensive to do what's needed to respect their humanity. So I don't think this conversation can be suppressed. 11/11

it’s sad to see so many people blaming atu and the vta drivers for the strike, instead of vta execs for not paying their workers fairly and giving them adequate working conditions

✊🚎 Workers at VTA are going ON STRIKE and they deserve our full support! VTA has a responsibility not only to its passengers, but its employees. Tell the agency TODAY that as a rider, you support workers: www.vta.org/about/contact

1. Happening now, the United States Senate is considering S9, a bill that would ban transgender people from playing sports of their gender identity from chess to darts and everything in between.

It could result in genital exams and more.

I'm covering live.

If you want to bring your 4 wheeled air conditioned living room into our city's flagship park you absolutely should have to goddamn pay to do so.

Yes, you should have to pay to park in Golden Gate Park
San Franciscans are used to a high standard when it comes to their parks. That’s about to change unless the department can scrape together funds, fast.
