this picture is so funny I'm sorry
The @smh allowing this woman to paint herself as a victim of unfair speed cameras is insane. She deserved every frigging cent of her fines.

1 hour 20 minutes from doors open on an international arrival at IAH to walking in my door after taking the @METROHouston 500 Express and light rail. 20+ miles for $4.50 is not bad! And I juuuust missed a perfect light rail connection which would have saved 12 minutes.

I will say that the live timetable in Google maps was accurate but nowhere near the published schedule?

With Gov. Greg Abbott conceding defeat, this effectively means the end of Mike Morath as Texas’ all-powerful education commissioner β€” whom Hinojosa vowed to fire if she won. Morath’s term is set to end in early 2027.

The Dynamo won in Seattle for the first time ever, in 15 years! Any competition in 5 years. Maybe we are in store for some more miracles in Texas.

I mean, the walkable places ordinance means very little if we grant a variance request to a random (in my opinion unnecessary) gas station proposal a block from a train stop
Houston has a Portico Code in the form of our Walkable Places Ordinance. But we need it to be applied lots more places.

I guess these folks don’t want police or fire or EMS. Or any child in town to be educated. Or libraries. Or roads.
β€œI’m old. I’ve paid my home off,” said Ray Warner, a 72-year-old Akron resident. β€œWhy would I pay property tax?” Across the country, homeowners are asking the same question and revolting against property taxes at a scale not seen in a half century. politico.com/news/magazine/2…

Big thanks to Union Pacific for blocking almost every crossing on the Galveston Sub in the East End for almost 4 hours. Frustrated drivers are throwing their cars around like absolute banshees because they are frustrated.

Imagine a Houston version of Barcelona's Las Ramblas that stretched from Buffalo Bayou to Hermann Park but with light rail running down the middle. It would be incredible.
