Why do roaches feel the need to fly? I’m already scared! They don’t need to now escalate the situation! It’s like if a guy took out a knife and said “gimme your wallet” and then when I’m like “okay man I don’t want any trouble, here you go,” he also takes out a gun.

I’m v passionate about public transportation and honestly idk why any major us city doesn’t have a light rail system

*azealia banks megaphone gif* PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION IS A HUGE EQUALIZER THAT GIVES DISENFRANCHISED PEOPLE ACESS TO GREATER RESOURCES CREATES LASTING STABLE JOBS AND PRODUCES CAPITAL FOR METRO GOVERNMENTS TO INVEST IN PROJECTS THAT IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE

because *republican voice* that’s socialism

Because they did have light rail systems, extensive ones. And then it started hurting car sales and the automotive companies got mad:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Motors_streetcar_conspiracy

So, with pressure from those guys it was effectively replaced by the Interstate system even within cities, and from then on urban planning was done specifically with every family owning a car in mind, which resulted in the vast urban sprawl of the suburbs built from the 1940s onwards, and why it’s now impossible to get anywhere without a car in most of the US. Which is basically unheard of elsewhere in the world unless you’re in the middle of nowhere.

Of course the cost of owning a vehicle has gone way the hell up since 70 years ago, resulting in a horrible situation for anybody living on minimum/near-minimum wage!

Remember in Who Framed Roger Rabbit when they dismantle the red car to make way for a big fat freeway with personal automobiles? Yeah, that was a lot more historical retelling than just a jokey cartoon movie thing.

Which, ironically, is usually the point of jokey cartoon movie things.

As someone who worked in light rail for 18 months (with emphasis on streetcars), I can tell you the following reasons it is a fucking pain in the ass to get light rail built anywhere it doesn’t already exist:

First, you have to get people to VOTE for a light rail.

Then, you have to bid out the light rail, and this can take–at minimum–18 months to two years.

Then, after choosing the proper bidding, you have to ARRANGE to even get materials where you need it.

While you are also getting materials, you have to be certain the people supplying you the trains are worth a good goddamn in terms of delivering reliable trains. There are a number of companies whom are COMPLETELY reliable, but if you are selling your trains as USA manufacturing, it’s a goddamn crapshoot. I’m pretty sure, with the demolition of my former employer, no one makes trains in the US anymore.

I wanna be clear on this: The US was not making fucking stellar trains that everyone should want. We legit bought plans from a company that’s been making trains for DECADES and pretended like we knew what we were doing. WE DID NOT KNOW WHAT WE WERE DOING.

For every two years it takes to prove you can pull off the thing, you’re going up against new elections, either from the state/federal level or from the local level, and it is hard as shit to keep up the momentum for light rail when you can’t even get a goddamn track laid before there’s a new election and someone halts construction.

Also there are people who are against transit SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE it helps poor people. The piss-poor excuse for a rail line in St. Louis can’t expand into St. Charles County, even though that would give people in the exurbs a much easier way to get to the airport/downtown, because–and I quote–“it might draw a bad element” out to the fortress of White Suburbia. It goes beyond NIMBYism to outright hatred of the (racialized) poor.

Adding on to the St. Louis rail line: I know there was a lot of controversy about expanding it into Clayton and Ladue (which are the very richy richy white districts if you couldn’t already tell by the names) because *gasp* that would mean poor people could access the area. Hell, Ladue didn’t even want sidewalks that connected to any neighboring neighbors because they’re exclusionary as fuck.

Mercer Island is suing Sound Transit here in Seattle to try to block ST3, our massive light rail expansion which voters overwhelmingly supported in last November’s election, because What About the Cars???

“Oh no,” I whisper as I come across a 150,000 word fanfic at 11pm.

“Oh dear,” I whine as I open the fic and see it was completed only weeks ago and has good reviews.

“Oh god,” I complain at 4am when I have to decide between sleep and another chapter.

for my entire life i wondered why a dragonfly has an ass thats like 8 times as long as their body and tonight i finally felt compelled to investigate and as it turns out dragonflies breath thru their ass and can shoot water out of their butt hole to make them fly faster…….so…… i really did not expect that to be the answer but there it is
