Damn, I just heard a dude prepping his kid like 'the subways here are not like the subways in Japan. There are no bathrooms. And there are no safety rails. So you have to stand farther back and hold our hands at all times' This country's infrastructure sucks

I haven't gone West of Yokosuka yet, but I am so fascinated with how well connected Japan's public transportation infrastructure is. In Tokyo, I rarely even had to use a bus, as the railway/monorail systems could get me in walking distance of wherever I wanted to go.

Omg safety rails! Seems like a no-brainer. (Says the parent who is anxiously gripping her kids’ hands on the metro platform)

To be fair, the upkeep is murder on all this land we stole. We did not think this through.

pfft that's just because you don't understand the inherent value of privatizing public infrastructure by awarding over valued contracts to person friends and ensuring that companies are able to profit by using the barest amount of resources possible. duh. /s

The culture shock from going to Tokyo to NYC's subway must be extreme.

And that’s in a place where we *have* that kind of infrastructure…

I actually had like a little 30-second cry the other week, after the NY congestion pricing was pulled. It seems like every time we're right on the cusp of having something really good that launches us into the future, someone yanks it away at the last second.
