Studying City & Regional Planning at University of Memphis. I love my cat Buzz, playing Irish fiddle, and riding my e-bike.

Watching this @kelseyhuse.com video and feeling old like "bAcK iN mY dAy wE ToOk tHe bUs!" But genuinely was I just unaware that this has always been a problem because I was a child? Was it just because I went to a well funded school? Has there been a significant change in funding school buses? All?

Where else should I look at PhD programs? My area of interest is transportation, specifically highway and road reduction, researching the economic, safety/health, and cultural factors.

After the law went into effect, we find that it produced a major boost in spending on streets/highway-related investment, adjusted for inflation. But spending on non-streets/highway investment, like rail transit, flatlined. States & cities *reduced* spending on rail transit after the law passed.

Federal, state, and local spending on transportation infrastructure.State and local spending on transportation infrastructure, by type.

I really thought Boring Company was gonna try to do business in Memphis (maybe they still are) , because: 1. We already have a tunnel from the airport 2. Saw one of their employees on bumble one time, meaning they are physically here. 3. XAI is here already Nashville is a bigger market tho ig

What’s the best way to spend $1 billion for transportation? Our latest report shows the positive impacts of every $1 billion shifted from highways to transit and identifies key policy levers to shift transportation investments away from highway spending. climateandcommunity.org/research/let...

Guy in the truck: “I’m sorry” Me carrying my bike around: “you’re not sorry, you’re just sorry you got caught!!!” (Huge smile and laughing) Trying out saying what I mean but in a super nice tone just to confuse ppl.

I have exhausted my Memphis dating options and now my strategy is to slide into the DMs of guys who live in Chicago and Nashville and convince them to move here.

I forgot to post this here. Anyway, please pay attention to xAI (and polluters in general) in Memphis. We deserve clean air. South Memphis ESPECIALLY deserves clean air - they’ve been dealing with polluters, cancer, asthma, for decades. (Shelby Co Health Dept public hearing a few months ago)

I’ve returned from Sicily back to Memphis. I was on a 12-day city planning research project in San Berillo. There are many similarities between that neighborhood and Memphis. One thing that keeps jumping out to me: we must solve poverty. And city planners cannot solve this alone.

Ok I’m back on here but my timeline is really depressing and idk what to do about it Not trying to ignore reality but need to prioritize my mental health & what’s in my control locally

Just logged in here and saw some posts and the Survivor finale was ruined for me UGHHHH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 IM SO PISSED RN Be sure to mute stuff you don’t want spoiled I guess 😭😭😭😭😭

Thanks for sharing. I’m also familiar w Streets Are For Everyone based in CA. In addition to the various transportation, bicycle, and safe streets advocacy groups. A movement focused on car crash victims nationwide akin to Moms Demand could bring it to the forefront. www.streetsareforeveryone.org
