Great turnout for the Southside Trail ribbon cutting by @beltlinerailnow.bsky.social
Update: 10 minutes later and the three buses shown around Mitchell Street are 31, 21, and 10 minutes late. All stacked on top of each other.

Just finished @mikeduncan.bsky.social’s incredible Storm Before the Storm - basically an in-depth but accessible look at the conditions that led to the fall of the Roman Republic. Highly recommend it, given the obvious parallels to our time.
