OMG, I can't believe I missed the Kickstarter for this! We may have to pick up a copy to play with our neighbors... Bay Area Regional Planner (the game)

Discovered via Joey Politano🏳️‍🌈 ‪@josephpolitano.bsky.social‬ who posted a picture of the rules highlighting:

Bonus, this thread about the Highway 37 widening which contains this pull quote:

In testimony to the state Assembvly Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee, Marin County Supervisor and MTC Vice Chair Stephanie Moulton-Peters noted that two members of her staff who commute to San Rafael from Solano County lose up to 90 minutes a day to congestion. "This bill is urgent," said Moulton-Peters. "We've been working on this project for more than a decade... We shouldn't let another generation sit in traffic or let wetland restoration opportunities slip away."

(Emphasis in Robert Prinz's screen cap) I mean, ya could build some damned housing and work towards wetland restoration, but, no, you've gotta increase VMT and fuck the climate instead...

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
