to be completely honest and in the most positive way possible, i never checked your actual blog before and only interact with your posts when they appear on my dash, so since my dash is 90% trans autistic women with incredibly niche special interests i always just assumed you were also along that vein of person
Are trains and urban design niche special interests?

Tumblr loves him
The autism is severe
He’s been a model one time
He’s not very grim
He was in contact with a Van Gogh I fear
I can’t think of a rhyme
And the secret service hates him

Living in Portland I’m never more than a seven minute walk away from a gay bar and it brings me peace.
Is Portland, OR secretly heaven on Earth?

Was just doing some back of the envelope math to explain the efficiency of trains to someone. Penn Station in New York saw about 600,000 daily passengers on weekdays in 2019. If every one of those people were to hypothetically drive a modern mini cooper instead (which, at 1.5m by 3.8m takes up an area of 6.4 square meters), it would require 3,876 square kilometres of parking. The combined area of Manhattan, Staten Island, and Long Island is 3,738 square Kilometres.
ALL OF LONG ISLAND???
if I am able to go to Dashcon 2 and host a panel, what should the topic be
trolleys and their various forms within American Cities (Philly, Toronto,Boston)
transit infrastructure and why it’s needed
a brief summary of American Rail Infrastructure history and why it matters today
the new potential for the north American Rail network and where it lacks
Local Advocacy and how to get involved
the history of the subway system
what makes a city livable, an open discussion
See ResultsThey call New York the city that never sleeps because I stole all the music boxes and now nobody there can get sleepy

Do trains taste good and on a scale from 1 to 10 how nutritious are they compared to children?
Taste is a 1/10, but they are slightly healthier to eat the children because they are rich in iron
