Hi new followers!
Most of y'all probably found me on transpo packs! I do it professionally, have on occasion been called an expert on certain things, & it's a passion not just a job.

But I rarely have much to add that others haven't already said. So mostly I post shower thoughts & irreverence.
When people become violently irate because you're not responding to them

Really hoping the next mayor relaxes on the Mayor Bowser Presents: Cult of Personality

So often it has felt like upper & middle management are paralyzed by indecision, simply seat warmers until the Mayor takes the reigns herself.

Excited to announce my new article (w/undergrad co-authors) updating my old article on the geography of logistics within U.S. metro areas. In the 90s, it was all about de-centralization; now there's re-centralization everywhere as a national system develops. OA: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
The changing and complexifying geography of logistics activity in U.S. metropolitan areas
This paper examines the spatial distribution of logistics activity (trucking & warehousing) across and within fifty of the largest US metropolitan are…

Engaging in the traditional run across a major highway because the back side of the Lincoln Memorial still inexplicably has no pedestrian crossings.

Taking a narrow focus on our industry:

This is going to be hell for transportation agencies' automated enforcement programs.

Yet another Federal action to completely undermine Vision Zero and kill people.

Major announcement in just-posted board documents: DC's Metro is moving fast toward automation.

Over 15 years, Metro plans full automation & platform screen doors, which the agency says will improve safety, reliability, & travel times—at reduced costs.

I'm fascinated at the crash design of these poles.

I'm sure it's me who's missing something, but why are the breakaway bolts 4 ft above the ground atop a solid concrete block?

I've found a new design vehicle to incorporate into our next update to Complete Streets.

As the federal government shutdown enters its fifth week, WCK teams and volunteers are serving meals in and around the D.C. region to federal workers and their families. Local Chef Corps members, restaurant partners, and volunteers are showing up to support their neighbors in need. #ChefsForFeds

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.

Sudan's army has lost its last foothold of el-Fasher, in Darfur, to the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces. Now warnings are mounting of a second genocide as mass killings unfold before the world.

The White House is part of the National Park Service & protected by Section 106 of the Historic Preservation Act of 1966.

Don't get me wrong: I do not care about the building. I care that this act states he is above the law & the people. It has the same message as his AI fighter jet shitpost.
I can't really explain fully why this is the thing of all things that got my jaw on the floor but I guess it's such a literal symbol and also such a jaw dropping amount of money while small businesses are struggling to survive the tariffs

Such a visible "go fuck yourself"
Scoop: Trump has started demolishing the White House's East Wing facade to build his ballroom. The president had claimed construction of the $250 million building wouldn’t ‘interfere’ with the existing White House structure. /W @ddiamond.bsky.social wapo.st/4hqBNiU

I'm considering making this quote from the Mother Jones article my bio: "If your definition of a violent mob includes well-organized Mennonites, that says more about you."

www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
They’re teachers, nurses, Mennonites, and Marines. The Trump administration calls them antifa.
The No King protests represent a broad popular front. That's exactly why the president's allies are demonizing the organizers.
