You're specifically NOT supposed to do this, take one AFTER the shot if you start feeling side effects.

25 years and we're supposed to buy she can't tell a taser from a gun.

Fuck, there's an ArcLight in Santa Monica that's been my go-to, it's a great theater. Their Widescreen format was a good IMAX substitute, coming from being used to having the Lincoln Square IMAX in NYC.

It’s too late for vaccines to save Michigan, CDC director explains ARSTECHNICA.COM Vaccines take weeks to work; distancing and other health measures work immediately.

Definitely a nice list. I recognized "chicane" immediately, I've seen it plenty of times before, it was just a complete brainfart moment.

Yes, thanks, for some reason the only thing coming to mind was sneckdowns. It was obviously wrong but my brain was stuck on it.

You don't need speed cameras to enforce the speed limit on a street like this: I know there's a specific term for this sort of design where you have narrow curves back and forth with shit in the way. @b_m_b_m_b_m It's not woonerf, it's specifically about the shit in the way of driving design, can you think of the term I'm thinking of?

A concerned citizen?

And what was the warrant even for? I'm assuming non-shithole countries don't shoot you for fleeing from arrest on a warrant for a small amount of drugs or passing a few fake bills or whatever.

"Let's not play politics." "Liberal one party rule." The only thing "liberal one party rule" seems to connect to is...cancel culture???

Literally copy-pasted from a Politico article.

Tolls are a way to regulate demand for specific routes and not just a way to collect money to maintain the infrastructure. But I'd agree that they should probably just add the congestion fee to the tunnel tolls instead of exempting you from it because you already paid the tunnel toll.

Katie Hill on Matt Gaetz: ‘I feel betrayed by him’ WWW.MSNBC.COM “I feel betrayed by him. And I have to wonder about his motivations for defending me in the first place,” says former Rep. Katie Hill on Rep. Matt Gaetz.

I think there was through running when the railroads were privately owned but then we got the current clusterfuck when things got divvied up between the states and Amtrak. And oh yeah, IIRC Amtrak owns Penn and apparently they're miserable for the state railroads to work with.

Penn Station wasn't designed to be a terminal station, it was designed as a through station. But there's no political will to figure out the revenue sharing arrangement on doing cross-ticketing. So instead they both run trains to NYP during the morning rush hour and then park them on the tracks until the evening rush hour. If they could through-run like Penn was designed for then they could both provide one-seat service and turn the trains around at less-busy stations, relieving a lot of the jam-ups at Penn. I think NJT and LIRR do have some technological compatibility issues they'd have to sort out to do through-running but the number one problem is the revenue sharing. And even Metro-North and LIRR, which are technically under the same agency, won't play nice, and the electeds just let it happen instead of telling them to be big boys and figure it out. East Side Access is spending billions building an entire second set of platforms at Grand Central absurdly deep underground because the Metro-North chief didn't want to share "his" tracks with LIRR.

Not sure about the GWB but I'm pretty sure a significant portion, maybe even a majority, of the traffic exiting the Lincoln and Holland tunnels is not traffic with an origin or destination in Manhattan, but is instead people transiting between New Jersey and Long Island.

Bicyclist Killed in Crash Had Tweeted Just Hours Before About the Dangers of Biking in DC WWW.NBCWASHINGTON.COM The cyclist killed Friday night in a crash that involved five other cars had tweeted just hours before his death about the dangers of biking through a traffic circle in Northeast D.C.

How long until he gets hired by another podunk police department?

Apparently they're not banning connecting flights, they're just making it so you can't buy those short routes as a standalone ticket. But it seems like in France they could do what KLM did and include a bus or train ticket for those short connections instead: https://www.klm.com/travel/gb_en/plan_and_book/ticket_information/travel_by_train_or_bus_on_a_KLM_ticket/index.htm

I bet you he calls Gaetz directly and/or demands the meeting happens once he finds out about this.

Urban Dictionary: cager WWW.URBANDICTIONARY.COM a popular word among motorcyclists and bicyclists for four wheeled motor vehicle drivers. The term is often used in a derogative sense, because the car body effectively forms a cage, isolating the said driver from having to interact with other road users. The term was coined by motorcyclists.
