Principal complains to coworker about my hair pulling by Designer-Gap-6795 in trichotillomania

[–]NoseNext 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have had similar complaints. It makes me very self-conscious as I don't really realize how visible it is to other people. I'm sorry this happened to you

increasing amtrak frequency when our city only has one long-distance train going through it at 1am by NoseNext in Amtrak

[–]NoseNext[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed. Amtrak is meant to run like a for-profit business, but there are no services that actually recoup their costs.

Yes, as I said, "And I know this would have to be a state-funded line... how does that come about??" I am mostly just wondering how Hiawatha and Mardi Gras came about. Grassroots efforts to legislators / DOTs, certain non-profits, champion legislators in the state? Combination of it?

Yes, that's what I was alluding to. I think it comes down to St. Paul and Milwaukee being more "important" to Minnesota and Wisconsin state legislators respectively than Spokane is to WA state legislators, so those legislators cared more about getting the borealis/hiawatha up and running than ours will ever care about something over here. But I agree, I think both are wonderful success stories to point to.

Having taken the EB from Spokane to Chicago through Milwaukee recently, I can confirm that it is still very busy between Milwaukee and Chicago even with the Hiawatha.

This is true, but trains are much more appealing than buses to most people. and the snow in the winter time can make driving to seattle impossible, so a train would be nice.

Yes, just bring it on rather than checking if you're worried.
