How do y’all go about planning long trips? My last Japan trip was about a week and I just kinda winged it (and I’m glad i did- lots of freedom when you can explore not on a timetable) but next year I want to do around 2.5-3 weeks and more cities and feel like I need a good plan.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: the Sunbelt doesn't have housing policy magically figured out. These places are mostly just California 30-40 years ago. strongtowns.org/journal/2024/4…

Wider Highways Don’t Solve Congestion. So Why Are We Still Knocking Down Homes To Build Them? “Over the past 30 years, more than 200,000 people nationwide have been displaced due to highway construction.” @FrontierGroupUS frontiergroup.org/articles/wider…
I continue to think it’s weird that people lie about this stuff, Biden overcame the concerted effort of Republicans to torpedo student loan reform by trying plans B-H, and the same Republican governors who engineered that are the ones deploying state troopers against protesters

Man, look at what we could've had if DART had followed through on its full ambitious Great Society style metro system plans. Imagine the boom Downtown would've gone through instead of slow, steady decline. texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/met…

Austin's min lot size reform is great but remember: Never accept the claim that a city has "run out of land" The roof of every apartment building is land. The roof of every library is land. The roof of every school is land. Get building.

Phase 1 of Seattle Line 2 opens tomorrow, linking Bellevue to Redmond. Line will cross Lake Washington into Seattle in 2025, after some construction mishaps. (Similar to staged opening of BART, which linked Oakland to Fremont in 1972 before heading under the Bay to SF in 1974.)

Man, i really should get a standing desk and a better chair. Shrimping it up way too much lately. $$$$ though.
At the most recent ForwardDallas hearing, I heard a NIMBY say pretty much verbatim that they don’t believe Dallas can or should grow. These are the people who shout loudest and get heard in our city gov. Mind-boggling how people will unabashedly say “I got mine, screw you.”

@kohiwonomu Google Sheets/Excel Easy to start penciling things in like flights and hotels and then you can fill in the gaps with the schedule that you want.
@kohiwonomu Personally, I use food as my guide. If I can score a spot that I want to dine at, I'll angle a trip around it - otherwise, I try using some type of anchor. Having one every 2-4 days keeps my focus without feeling too rigid.
@caraathome Cara, which is higher: -Train derailments hitting a home nationwide in the last decade. -Cars running into homes in DFW only in the last 12 months. (I’ll give you a hint: 🚗) Sounds like if people are concerned, we should take cars off the road by running MORE trains.
@EricTheTexan @caraathome @jcblindsey Nah, just fear mongering.
@caraathome Cars are so much more dangerous than trains and yet you do everything in your power to make sure Dallas remains completely car dependent. You claim to care about safety while all the children in your district grow up breathing in exhaust and particulates from tires
