Metro Transit generally needs to celebrate itself more. They run an anomalously successful light rail system, a nation-leading BRT program, a high-quality bus system, and have an ambitious capital plan. Does the average Twin Cities resident know about any of these? Probably not!

100 years ago the Twin Cities were among the top railway centers in the US. Today the only passenger stations are NorthStar commuter in Minneapolis and @Amtrak at St Paul @UnionDepot. Let's visit all the lost train stations, starting with downtown Minneapolis. There were many! 🧵 – at Minneapolis, MN

Subtly retreating from the avant-garde and upping the groove in the process, 'Speaking In Tongues' is the Talking Heads LP I treasure most. 'Girlfriend Is Better' is the Prince masterpiece he forgot to write. 'This Must Be The Place' is Steely Dan on an unsupervised tour of punk.

I'm urging @TheJusticeDept to address this injustice and help the disability community access the quality care they need & deserve.
