Here's a key part of the report.Congress ordered a study of why the US wastes billions by spending 5x as much per mile of subway track as every other country in the world.The @USGAO interviewed track builders who told them that cost comparisons are hard. So they didn't do it. pic.twitter.com/9lWe68LOId— Brian M. Rosenthal (@brianmrosenthal) July 22, 2019

The MTA hired three firms to clear subway drains. Two donated to Cuomo’s campaign during the same period, including a fundraiser at a luxury suite at a Mets game.We look at the governor’s donations from MTA contractors with @jdavidgoodman @agustin_NYT https://t.co/sGgPrnWpL3— Emma G.

I’ll have more from this story later but from what I’ve been told, this denial by the governor is at best half-true and may be completely untrue in many cases. pic.twitter.com/oSEx3eJe2w— Second Ave. Sagas (@2AvSagas) July 29, 2019

i switched back to a backpack abt five years ago on physical therapist's orders. but they also told me i should have no more than seven pounds of stuff in there... so once i throw in my planner, pen, camera, maybe a cell charger and a hoodie for if i'm going to some ice-cold interior, i'm pretty much done. on days when i'm teaching, i have my tablet and a little notepad and i can feel the extra weight in my lower back. and i still am hyperconscious of taking up train space.

That is so messed up. Although easily could be taken out with baseball bats.
There is a recent video of a woman in chile climbing up a tall pole and disabling a street surveillance camera and then the crowd below her catches her. It's great.

Someone didn’t even do a rough cost-benefit analysis on this. It costs between $50,000,000 and $75,000,000 a year to pay for 500 extra officers. I doubt they will prevent 20,000,000 additional incidents of fare evasion to break even...— TekGuru3000 (@tekguru3000) November 2, 2019

i had a mentally ill dude on the train on saturday who completely lost it and was going bench by bench, car by car, screaming at every other person "IGNORE ME? YOU IGNORE ME! HOW YOU IGNORE ME!?!? IGNORE ME?"he skipped me somehow, perhaps because i wasn't ignoring him

So here’s a thing: when you are standing inside the car holding the rail above next to or above the seats and somebody gets up from his seat when the train stops and says “excuse me” and stands waiting like a Dr. Seuss character until you move, since technically you are between him and the door, although there might be another defender behind you, so you improvise a space but maybe this person should have taken a step or two into the middle of the car and left you out of it
― The Soundtrack of Burl Ives (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 8 January 2020 13:41 (four years ago) link
at least they've waited until the train stops and there's a place to go
with the people who get up while the train's still moving it's like where, exactly, do you expect me to go
