The GILLIG Phantom

The backbone of TheBus, the GILLIG Phantom reliably serviced the streets of Oʻahu for 43 years. Tens, possibly hundreds of millions of commuters have ridden on the 288 that sported TheBus’s livery over the decades. 1/🧵
December ridership is out (Thanks hnl transit for reminding me), and it surprises by upsetting the trend seen in the past two years by having higher ridership than I expected. 1/🧵

4 people have been killed on our roads and we’re only 5 days into 2026.

If you’re trying to do the math, that’s about one person a day.

I’d tell you Drive with Aloha, but if you don’t already after hearing it from countless state officials, there’s little hope that’ll change from me saying it. 1/🧵

Revlimid has its origin in a pill that cost patients $7.50 each.

Decades later, the cancer drug costs more than $18,000 for a month’s supply — even though it still only costs about 25 cents to manufacture.

Our #8 most-read story of 2025:
The Price of Remission: This Cancer Drug Saves Lives — but Costs a Fortune. I Wanted to Know Why.
When I was diagnosed with cancer, I set out to understand why a single pill of Revlimid cost the same as a new iPhone. I’ve covered high drug prices as a reporter for years. What I discovered shocked ...

Friendly reminder to the transit community:
DO NOT trespass on OTS property,
DO NOT operate OTS equipment without permission,
And DEFINITELY DO NOT use insider knowledge for clout of personal gain, or spread information that’s clearly not meant to be public!

Hauʻoli Makahiki Hou to you and your ʻOhana!

Many came out to enjoy the fireworks on Skyline, and everyone celebrated together in their own way. If there’s a will, there’s a way. Despite the state’s best efforts the people of Oahu still put on a spectacular, if not legally dubious, fireworks show.
