[MD Gov] Wes Moore’s first priority is to review the [I-270/495/Legion Bridge widening] project through the “lens of equity, sustainability, environmental protection and environmental justice,” Elliott said.
And on the fourth straight day of full time childcare, I think that we both really began to crack.
Finally, what’s the deal with the solid yellow line running the entire length? Is the implication that we’re not supposed to pass anyone anywhere?
For a trail that was delayed opening to remediate accessibility issues, has anyone noted that the big ole viaduct over the train tracks doesn’t have the ADA required level landings every 100’ for respite? Seem like a pretty glaring accessibility biff.
Every one of the street-grade crossings is god’s way of telling us that they oughta be underpasses.
But this School St one, where eastbound trail users are turned away from oncoming School st drivers, is a really defective design that will get someone hurt or worse.
Finally rode the full GLX trail legally, and let’s stipulate from the start that it’s wonderful, too narrow, and will get used to death. A few other down-in-the-weeeds thoughts (1/x)
It’s a hot humid day at the end of June, and the North Point Park splashpad is dry. The tech to enable a reliable splashpad continues to elude us.
(i wouldn't spend $3K on a used acoustic bullitt, but that color is my favorite, and that box is so classy)

Had to go pick up groceries, and I was feeling exceptionally tired, lazy, and it’s spitting rain. I walked out to the car, opened the door, and my kid stood there aghast, holding her helmet. So we biked.

Re-rewatching S3E10 because it was just That Good.
I mentioned it before, but I enjoy the Rebecca-Roy platonic love as much as the Rebecca-Ted platonic love #TedLassoRewatchParty
S3E10 this would have been maybe the best episode of the whole run without the stupid-ass Nate sideshow. Everyone in the Greyhounds locker room redefining manhood for us. #TedLassoRewatchParty
S3E8 I will miss the running jokes about shredded wheat biscuits, which I grew up with and still love #TedLassoRewatchParty
This kid f*cking rocked the last #BikeBus of the year
Thinking about building some terraced raised planters in my backyard (partial sun) for primarily vegetables (and also, to act as sort of a functional fence)
Anyone local to Boston got any expertise or lessons learned for me?
