Bus speeds have declined for 7 of the top 10 US agencies in the past decade. Slower buses means agencies have to spend more to maintain service or reduce frequencies. We need a massive federal program to fund bus lanes, signal priority, & other tools to get our buses moving!

Why is an RV called “rogue armored”? It’s an RV. You’re not landing at Normandy.
Here’s Labor Day afternoon 2022. Only time I’ve ever seen traffic north of Augusta that didn’t involve the moon passing in front of the sun.
Somehow there is no traffic today in New England. @universalhub
This Labor Day, JD Vance will be delivering an address at Womenhaters Local 364.
I guess it’s Labor Day in Canada too

Merry Christmas to All(ston)

Meteorological summer in Boston, by the numbers:

High temp >= 90˚: 12 (average since 2000: 12, since 1872: 10 )
Low temp >= 70˚: 21 (avg 17/11)

Really a tale of two summers:

Jun 1 – Jul 18: 8 days > 90, 14 days > 70, 3.5˚ above avg.

Since then 4, 7, 0.9˚ below avg.

Here's to today being the most humid day of September!

Well I’d rather be dead in California than alive in arizona
