that thread's responses are all pretty great but i particularly like this top one:
@AlexandraErinIf you think allowing a broken window to go unaddressed encourages lawlessness, I invite you to consider what happens when we let the cops get away with murder.

One of the MTA's enduring problems is retaining top tier talent; not just at the top, but entry level, too. So many young, talented people want to work for the New York City subway system. Very few stay. Today was a very public window into why. https://t.co/9O4mV2T30B— Aaron W. Gordon (@A_W_Gordon) January 23, 2020

The proposed line that goes from Bay Ridge to Astoria sounds pretty great (though I won't have kids to enjoy it considering how long it takes anyone in the MTA to do anything other than raise fares).
― Yerac, Friday, 24 January 2020 18:59 (four years ago) link
i imagine if you had kids, their kids might see that line but i wouldn't put money on it.

When they set fire to dozens of metro stations on the first night of protests in santiago people were speculating that it was coordinated. OH YOU THINK???

This is packaged and framed up as a story of two big egos colliding but the narrative is just about Andrew Cuomo being an asshole until the highly competent MTA chief got sick of dealing with him https://t.co/oXSW9PWmLD— Tom Scocca (@tomscocca) February 3, 2020

she was placing her ass crack on the ridge between 1-2 or 2-3
she was also (take note st. peter) leaning forward while sitting, elbows on knees. like it's not enough that you have a seat, you also have to shove your head into my fucking groin while i make room for ppl

This morning we got on the 2 train at Sterling St and there was a bit of a smell but I thought it wasn't worth worrying about too much as we were only riding two stops but then my wife turned to me and said "Is that man playing with shit?" And sure enough he was: the man opposite was turning a turd in his palms. So we changed carriages at the next station.
