Who's running against Connolly for SD-2 in 2026? (And who's running for his current seat?) I'm done being represented by a NIMBY who thinks that more lanes = less pollution and who ignores the anxiety non-drivers feel because of all the additional pollution he enables

![Quote from Asm. Connolly regarding the widening of CA-37: "People are sitting in traffic trying to get to work. It's creating pollution, anxiety," he said. "I am in favor of pursuing the interim solution [widening the highway] to the greatest extent possible."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fvjh6dxqf5i5akyobmctql5v/bafkreifr7vja4gnnomy4od7js3u2ljhsknkzdn5qdst7znczkb6kvc57xu@jpeg)

If we're really open to spending $11B to elevate transportation infrastructure susceptible to sea level rise, can I interest Caltrans in 8 more miles of SMART?

Long snappers can only spat their cleats if they can make plays like this. (You'll be shocked to learn I never spatted my cleats.)

The best opportunity to fix this right now is for people to comment on the MASCOTS plan about how the 32 minute SMART frequency is squandering all the value the other agencies are creating by aligning routes and schedules.

cities are good. d.c. is good. we should be a state. being one would not necessarily prevent anything that is happening, but what is happening is a sharp reminder that we aren't. (i was angrier about the budget.) we are not a state because of an inherent fear of ~the urban other.

If it doesn’t rain for 17 minutes after the 9th inning on November 1, 2016 and the Tribe rides their momentum to beat the Cubs and send Ohioans (and Pirates fans overdosing on schadenfreude) into a celebratory bender, who knows how those two states go a week later
What’s your modern historical hinge point? Nothing political. Just your major cultural What If? For example, I’m a 1994 Expos truther

Been here 4 months, high time to make a map. The Golden Gate Bridge is great... @goldengate.org Transit, less so. Still, fun to play around with an isometric design and be artsy with the bridge and the Ferry Building.

We an outgoing chair of a committee that no longer exists 😔, gonna second everything here
Finally got official communication about this, as a friend (not member) of several committees, after hearing about it on here days ago. The old committees have been summarily dissolved without warning and fewer new ones are being formed. A predictable set of topics is omitted entirely.
