Yea I dunno if you’re an American trying to get home from the Caribbean…good luck?

I think literally *everything* is cancelled today. That’s tens of thousands of stranded passengers who need to be rebooked at the end one the highest peak travel season.
United Airlines issued a Caribbean Airspace Closure alert for ANU, AUA, BGI, BON, BQN, CUR, DOM, POS, SJU, SKB, STT, SXM, UVF. Original travel: Jan 04, 2026 - Jan 06, 2026; must be completed by Jan 13, 2026. Additional details here. #PaxEx #AvGeek

A US president uses his for-profit (but money losing) social media site to announce a military strike against a foreign sovereign nation and the seizure by military force of a foreign government leader. Says a lot about where things are at in the US in 2026.

I wrote about how surprised I still am a candidate for NYC mayor won in large part by talking incessantly about buses, and also about how making them fast as promised will be an immense challenge. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
With Mamdani, the Humble Bus Gets Its Due
Enthusiasm for NYC’s mayor-elect may reflect a little-understood reality about the essential role of buses. Still, making them faster won’t be easy.

Once again reiterating: the end of the 30-day MetroCard will reduce ridership. It’s the stupidest decision the @mta.info has ever made.
We said goodbye to the MetroCard but we must also say goodbye to the existential, slightly depressed "Add Value/Add Time" meme that will no longer make the rounds 🫡 nygroove.nyc/add-value-ad...
'Time' is no longer for sale in New York City
RIP the add ‘value/add time’ meme, buried alongside the MetroCard
