I won a TAB award for my story on an Austin summer camp that teaches kids to use public transit! I credit the kids for their groundbreaking insights about buses, like: “They make it stable, so if lightning strikes it, it won't break as much." kut.org/transportation…

Austin-Bergstrom International Airport's control tower has 29 air traffic controllers, less than half the FAA's target of 60. Months after warnings of a "dire" staffing crisis, more flights have been delayed. What the FAA told Congress vs. what's really happening at ABIA. 🧵

This eliminates funding for NPR, PBS, KUT, KUTX, Austin PBS, Marfa Public Radio, and other stations across the state and country that provide news, community information, and culture and entertainment -- all at a cost to taxpayers of less than $2 a year.

There's a restaurant in Austin where, once a month, every customer eats for free. Korea House on Anderson Lane has given away around 15,000 meals since starting these monthly free meal days in 2023.
