SFMTA will make bus stops more accessible — and public transit more equitable — fives times faster than originally proposed. The improvement — painting curbs along bus stops red and ensuring cars aren’t parked there — was prioritized because of organizing.

Fascinating collection of AI pictures made from a street turned into low poly 3D street art by and then processed with stable diffusion. The robots need some help better visualizing people on bicycles :/

For this one it redid the clouds but kept true to yellow flowers and a bike lane, although the people on bikes leave a lot to be desired. The tram is oddly out of proportion but almost in a steampunk way. The general dimensions of the lanes from streetmix / 3dstreet are retained.

"A cyclist rides by a tram next to a tree lined street as the bright sun starts to set. People are walking on the sidewalk under the beautiful large trees"

The Great Highway south of Sloat is crumbling into the sea. Prop I would undo a decade of planning & add incredible safety risks & costs. This is climate denialism, plain & simple. It would also end the popular weekend walkway north of Sloat. Vote no on I.

My Spotify recommendations have officially been taken over by my kids. "Poopy the Friendly Poopy" and "Poopy Stupid Butt" are 2 actual titles of songs that appeared in my Discover Weekly tonight. Back to for new music!

It’s baffling that cities all over the US spend billions on expensive new infrastructure & then pay so little attention to the user experience improvements that would get far more people to use the system - like simple integrated fare products like day passes, unified wayfinding.

Notice when a large group of Black and Hispanic youths ride through Berkeley and are hit by a raging driver the narrative quickly switches from "evil white bike bros" and the fake equity concerns disappear and now it's: "scary thugs invading the city."
