was listening to the recent trillbillies ep with donoteat and he made the excellent point that basically every rural and exurban American city has an excellent bus network that reaches just about everyone — but they’re yellow and only kids are allowed to use them
@kate they also only run twice a day and only go to one location...so it’s not so much a network as a loop.
@courtney @kate At least here with “magnet” programs and “we can’t call it bussing anymore because the Supreme Court said racism was solved 🙄” district “resegmentation” and “cross-pollination” the network is way more complex than just simple loops. It probably would be interesting to contrast with our “still acts like it is restricted to old trolley maps” bus network.
@kate fair, so long as everyone’s job is on that loop.
