This is like the I5 Bridge with light rail for Washington and Oregon that we have planned since 1991.
We finally built the waterfront here in Vancouver we planned… but we mostly just kept the project on embers until we could afford chunks of it. The Bridge is still being fought about cause cost

Reply to comment by UltraInstinctLurker in A 2-year-old boy was lost in the Florida woods for 24 hours. Everyone feared the worst. Hundreds of volunteers came out to look for him. One volunteer came to a fork in a field: right or left? He trusted his gut, went left and soon heard a whimper. It was the little boy, crying but in good health. by ConquerWyoming
Tell them about the monsters that inhabit under their bed to avoid a similar situation. Or take away their bed. And toys. For their own safety, of course.

We're having a pizza party! We're going to the toy store! Santa's here! (Panicked tones of course).

The story is uplifting, the comments are a bunch of idiots, and I think I’m going to cuddle with my son a bit more after reading this article.

The "first section" is the longest section by a very long way, though.

This is basically what SNCF said when CHSR brought them in. Stop treating it as a vote buying program and just stick to a realistic deliverable project. They left because the project was too dysfunctional.

Construction has already started. Testing is meant to begin two years from now in 2025 and conclude in 2027. Given the scale and scope of this project, I think it’s okay that it’s taken a while.

Would that apply to a wheelchair user too? Or somebody with cancer?

Reply to A man with no home was treated as if he didn't matter. Then a group of people helped, saving his life in the process. by CBSnews
This is a faux "upliftingnews" alá American standards.
"STARVING FAMILY GETS FREE FOOD!" this isn't uplifting, it's fucking insane that the family was starving to begin with.
Same here, this isn't solving or helping a problem, this is treating the symptoms whilst clapping eachother on the back whilst not at all addressing the actual cause.
