This is apparently in Columbus, Ohio -- a pretty major city by any stretch of the imagination.

And yet there are people who rail (geddit?) against 15-minute cities and efficient public transit that ensures no one ever gets stuck like this.

@destructdisc @BilboBargains Unfortunately, public transportation is one of the many public goods that has been in decline for decades due to neglect by both major political parties in the US and is now getting absolutely demolished under the new fascist regime, and people who walk and cycle have also had targets painted on our backs by hatemongers. We need to fight more actively than ever for our freedom to travel freely by the mode of our choosing.
