@TechConnectify @sass @TransitBiker Hence the alternate merge. Never saw a problem or heard anyone complain about it.

@TechConnectify @sass @TransitBiker Or do like they do in NY and put up signs that say “alternate merge.”

@sass Hot take - the only way we're gonna make zipper merges work is if the stop telling people which lane ends.

If a sign just said "Caution: Lane Reduction in Three Miles" we could force people to take turns.

But saying "Left lane ends" means planners will plan, they get over, then they're annoyed at the people who didn't plan, they don't let them in, yadda yadda.

There was a wooden shoe in my toilet.

@yasha As my 88-year old mother likes to say “aging is everything it’s cracked up to be.”

@AlliFlowers not anything you did, just sad at how few stars people near cities get to see these days.

Andrew Weissman is reporting on MSNBC that Trump 2016 campaign manager and convicted felon Paul Manafort made a deal with Putin to help Trump get elected. In return Trump would not oppose his invasion of Ukraine, nor would Trump allow weapons to be sent to Ukraine. Sounds right?

Wall Street has consolidated into 5 giant banks.

Airlines have merged from 12 carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

A handful of drug companies control the pharmaceutical industry.
