This is me. No white people until college and working in an office. As a result, I know nothing about their interests and even if I do, I'm not interested. Makes for very awkward water cooler conversations.

This was me. I had to learn white people culture when I started college in Manhattan. In my neighborhood you literally don't see white people unless they're sightseeing or traveling to a sporting event.

Well apparently from the downvotes I'm getting most people on this subreddit think the world's going to be a bicycle one.

When poor people move you merely displace crime, you don't fix it. It's no wonder that more buying power brings more amenities.

a lot of people do not qualify for a CC

The ones that got cheated were the ones that didn't leave during white flight, including African Americans.

But like, do u evn Byke bruh?

No, I like the discounted rides.

I feel like you’re giving these people and their desires too much credit for actually being aware of what’s going on around them.

I keep it in a specific pocket of my bag so I always know where it is.

Frankly I’m not comfortable using my phone as a train pass. I want it to be a separate card.

Anyone complaining about 3 lanes please come to Columbia street between Atlantic and Hamilton aves anytime Monday through Friday. Since the reduction to two lanes a lot of traffic spills onto Columbia Street and has made Columbia the "third lane" ... it's a mess from sun up to sun down.

I don't think that project is a good example of disproving induced demand as its purpose was more to reduce weaving at a poorly designed interchange than add a long stretch of additional capacity.

I also am not fully convinced the lane reduction on the small section of the BQE is a good representation of induced demand either as the capacity was maintained at either end.

You must have one them fancy office jobs they keep talking about. You done stated the problems you are witnessing AND you provided solutions to your complaints. 🤯 /s (kinda)

Correct, thew new design is working better than the old

Underrated comment. The electrified future is fast coming; 10% of new cars sold last year were electric. Grid is switching to renewables with battery storage. Cars aren’t going anywhere as much as some militant f*** car advocates wish they would.

Yes, and it's a card if you want that.

Edit: Why are you downvoting me? That's exactly what it is!

The g train has enters the chat

Traffic as in cars moving very slowly if they’re moving at all. Not just volume of vehicles.

No. If the chance of death from doing a hard drug is 10%, and someone does it once, ODs, then gets brought back with narcan, it's a saved life. If that person is going to continue taking the same exact chance of death over and over, it's the exact same chance of death each dose.

Well, I like to eat and our food has to be brought in, so....

Real estate is hugely expensive. The only places are along Sunset Park's 1st and 2nd Avenues and the trucks would have to take the BQE to get to much of the rest of Brooklyn and/or Queens.

yup. anything west of broadway from 163rd all the way up to the cloisters
